Really important talk from Vicki Cherry SCOT #SummerSCOT meeting about protecting female surgeons from radiation and a possible link to an increased risk of breast cancer. Much work to be done.

We travelled north today to Mzuzu past beautiful countryside and villages. During the journey we mapped out what we’re wanting to achieve whilst we’re here and the questions to ask when we meet the team tomorrow. What changes do YOU think would make the biggest impact? 🤔

Day 1 at Mzuzu Central Hospital with our “new” trusty Land Rover. Lessons learnt: 📊 There is a huge amount of data collected by the team allowing for an accurate epidemiology study 🦴 Staff work tirelessly seeing over 6000 patients per year 💰 Funding and resources are scarce
