They say good things come in 3s! Huge congrats to Drs Eleanor Jones, Helen Clarke & Chloe Barr, who all graduated with PhDs today UoM Biology, Medicine and Health! Talented clinical O&G trainees who want to advance endometrial cancer care through clinical practice, innovation & research #WomenInSTEM

It's out! Combining clinical risk factors & polygenic risk scores to predict #ovariancancer risk in women with #BRCA . So grateful to Prof Evans, Emma Crosbie and everyone involved in this work.

I passed!
What a rollercoaster of a PhD. So grateful to my supervisors Prof Gareth Evans, Emma Crosbie, Richard Edmondson & Miriam Smith, my examiners, my amazing husband Stam, & 3 year old + 3 month old for sort-of sleeping. Cancer Research UK UoM Biology, Medicine and Health The Christie NHS #PhDone

In October, the Greater Manchester Cancer Alliance Conference saw the entire Manchester cancer ecosystem discussing crucial themes of collaboration, equality & innovation.

GPs just broke the U.K. record for consults in one month - 37 million!

All with 1800 fewer GPs.

Thank you primary care!

BRCA isn't always the culprit. Women with familial epithelial ovarian cancer often need wider genetic testing to identify pathogenic variants. #familial #hereditary #ovariancancer Niki Flaum bit.ly/3ysVX6m

Love being part of this team! We lift each other up #WomenInSTEM

Great interview with my boss, Prof Gareth Evans. Strongly recommend a listen to anyone interested in cancer prevention, early detection or breast cancer.

Was so proud to celebrate my professorial inaugural lecture with #TeamWomb Team Womb - delayed due to COVID, but certainly worth the wait. These are the professors of gynae oncology of the future! #WatchThisSpace #SuperStars Division of Cancer Sciences NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre Manchester Cancer Research Centre MFT Research and Innovation

Team Womb were out in force to celebrate Emma Crosbie & to hear her give her inaugural lecture…better late than never after her promotion to Prof in 2019! An inspiring supervisor 👏 #wombwarrior Division of Cancer Sciences Manchester Cancer Research Centre UoM Biology, Medicine and Health

Delighted to present some of our work - 'BRCA and beyond' at #ESMO2022 - thanks to everyone who stopped by with questions and to discuss genetic testing in familial ovarian cancer ESMO - Eur. Oncology Emma Crosbie Elke van Veen Bill Newman Division of Cancer Sciences CRUK Manchester Institute UoM Biology, Medicine and Health

Fantastic session on sex and cancer #ESMO22 - really important discussions on fertility, sexual health, menopause symptoms and contraception. We all need to talk about this with our patients. Especially loved talk by Sharon L Bober #sexualhealth

What an incredible start to #ESMO2022 - brave, honest and brilliantly blunt talk on 'one step forward, two steps back' for women in oncology by Fatima Cardoso, my new hero&winner of the Women In Oncology award. So many challenges, time for more conscious bias? #womeninoncology

Today both me and my computer managed to have more tantrums than my 2 year old.
