Thank you to my Directors and Supervisors at @PeterMacCC 20 years ago who encouraged me to job share to get through my training in #radonc with my two young baby boys. Still have another 20years in me of working in this great specialty!
SO SO important to continue to work to make #RadOnc and #Radiology specialties that are inclusive and equitable to all those who desire to start and raise families in training and beyond! #radxx#WomenWhoCurie@AAWR_org

I’ve never met a Lung Cancer Nurse that I haven’t loved! (Mary, Judy, Nicole...) These nurses are highly skilled, super-caring and make such an enormous impact. Getting things sorted quickly in lung cancer=survival gain. Funding for these positions is essential.
Retweet to show your support:
I’m joining @Lungfoundation to call on the Federal Government to include funding for specialist lung cancer nurses in the next Budget. It’s time to give #LungCancer a fair go. @GregHuntMP @ScottMorrisonMP
Congrats to our @_ShankarSiva for being awarded the @CancerVic Colebatch Fellowship. He'll use the $1.5M to investigate how precision radiotherapy (#SABR) can boost the effect of cancer immunotherapy. Read more: https://t.co/NLXYuifSus
Thanks @cityofmelbourne & @LordMayorMelb
So glad we snuck in the Moomba parade before #COVID19 threw a spanner in the works!
The 2019 award was wonderful recognition for the small but mighty team at #tobaccofree portfolios.
Be sure to get your nominations in for 2020!
Radiation oncologists are urging all cancer patients to continue their treatment.
Radiation therapy is a safe treatment and advanced technology means that we can be flexible in modifying treatment plans in this current environment.
