Last month I joined Icon Cancer Centre Adelaide, thanks to Dr Francis Parnis! This week, I am humbled to step up to the role of Director of Research (MedOnc/Haem) for Icon Group, thanks to Dr John Bashford. Big shoes to fill in both roles! tinyurl.com/4rhrjnry

Here's what you need to know about our landmark initiative PrOSPeCT, which formally launched today 🧬 [1/6]

On 2023 World Cancer Research Day, let's do better for our First Nations people by designing inclusive trials, bringing clinical trials to the community through #teletrials and providing a place at the table and a voice in improving health care policy. #WorldCancerResearchDay

On this day, burden of travel and financial toxicity of travel continue to be inflicted by our systems. When Oz doctors make patients travel for clinical trials without willing to use Teletrial model and the 100M national program to offer trials closer to home, it is a sad day.

Today, on #WorldCancerDay, we acknowledge people who have a cancer diagnosis & their families, & the challenges that come with this. Our appreciation also goes to every patient advocate, researcher & health care professional who are helping improve treatment & care.

On this World Cancer Day, I celebrate the 100 million of cancer survivors around the world today 👏🌎 and weep for the 110 million forcibly displaced persons globally who, if faced with cancer, will miss out on cancer care. 🌍 💔

The theme for World Cancer Day 2022-2024 is Close the Care Gap. At Icon Group we acknowledge that one of the most important and impactful ways to do this is to report, collect and share data to contribute to the global cancer knowledge effort. #worldcancerday #closethecaregap
