I tell ABC News TV about our four-pronged research strategy to reduce bowel cancer burden in Australia funded by 4x NHMRC Investigator grants @dan_buchanan @ProfJonEmery @UniMelbMDHS @unimelb @Aung_Ko_Win msn.com/en-au/video/sp…

@CancerAustralia @healthgovau My research goal is to find new ways to get as many people as possible to increase their screening participation to save Australian lives from bowel cancer. #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth #unimelbMSPGH

Detect #cancer before symptoms appear with your free and simple #BowelCancer screening kit. Find out more here cancerscreening.gov.au/internet/scree… #BowelCancerAwarenessMonth @healthgovau

Australians have some of the highest bowel cancers risks in the world, but if everyone did the home test kit when they received it, we would have one of the lowest risks in the world!

@enenbee @AFL @unimelbMSPGH @JulieASimpson50 Hawthorn have had some of the best indigenous players ever: see highlights of Buddy Franklin, Cyril Rioli for two of the best examples!

Bowel cancer is our second deadliest cancer with many cases not detected early enough. Prof Mark Jenkins of @unimelb has been awarded a #InvestigatorGrant to develop innovative ways to encourage screening through the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program ow.ly/wX8X50zNiAT

@CancerCouncilOz All that is needed to achieve this goal is for participation in the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program to reach 60%. Currently it’s only about 40%. Do the home test kit - it could save your life!

Together, we could save 84,000 lives in the next 20 years. Let's tackle Australia's second biggest cancer killer.

@stevenstrogatz Read John Banville’s “Kepler” for an excellent fictionalised version of all the exasperation and tribulation.

@DianaLucia87 @RadioNational Great podcast!

@MatterOfStats Also on track for the lowest maximum margin...
