Really intense two days @UKRI #sandpit figuring out research possibilities in cancers of unmet need. Wonderful format for high risk strategies that otherwise wouldn’t get passed panel

Do you know the symptoms of oesophageal cancer? You wouldn't be alone if you didn't - only 2% of the population can name all symptoms. If you or loved ones experience symptoms - it’s time to talk to you GP. heartburncanceruk.org/oesophageal-ca… pls share. #oesophagealcancerawarenessmonth

Honoured to be part of this important campaign. Thank you for your support Surgery and Cancer Imperial College London The Royal College of Surgeons of England George Hanna #WomenInSTEM Women in Science Day

Really wonderful work Maria Secrier

Great to see George Hanna's exciting research into non-invasive #cancer detection using breath tests covered on Channel 4 News. Trials are currently taking place to test for #OesophagealCancer, as well as a number of other hard-to-diagnose cancers ⬇️

Fantastic to see this working reaching new levels with George Hanna. Immensely proud to be part of this work during my PhD with Tom Wiggins Stefan Antonowicz

It was great to have Helen Whately MP, the Social Care Minister, visit TheHannaGroup to learn more about our new clinical study, funded by Pancreatic Cancer UK, to develop the world’s first breath test to detect pancreatic cancer. Find out more ⬇️ imperial.ac.uk/news/243696/so…

Majid Hashemi and I attended the APPG this morning to emphasise the importance of chronic conditions linked to digestive disorders and swallowing problems like #achalasia 'Major conditions' include cancer and mental health. They all need to have their fair share of resources

Really excellent day many congratulations Sheraz Markar and Rich Owen #OGOS2023

🚨 Delighted to share our back-to-back publications in nature (nature.com/articles/s4158…) and Orli Bahcall (nature.com/articles/s4158…)🚨. In these publications we unravel the pan-cancer immunogenomics differences between primary and metastatic tumors. Thread below🧵👇

A new research project, led by S&C's Sadaf Ghaem-Maghami 💙, has been awarded funding from Target Ovarian Cancer Cancer and will explore immunotherapy for high grade serous #OvarianCancer. Find out more ⬇️ targetovariancancer.org.uk/news/exploring…

Delighted our GOLF trial randomising patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux between laparoscopic fundoplication and the LINX procedure has been funded by NIHR-EME! This trial will provide robust evidence regarding optimal anti reflux surgery in this cohort of patients (1/3)

S&C's Head of Department, George Hanna, discusses in The Observer his team's research and final stage clinical trials of cancer breath tests. “If these are successful, we could see cancer breath tests deployed in doctors’ surgeries in a few years.” theguardian.com/society/2023/j…

Come join us (17-18th June) where we will be showcasing our breath testing technology. We’ll be waiting for you in the City and Guilds building (medical marvels zone)!

Calling all General and Upper GI surgeons! What should be done for patients presenting with a suspected oesophageal perforation? We aim to create a AUGIS consensus guideline on the initial management and investigation of these patients. Have your say here: qfreeaccountssjc1.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4M…
