This is me and Barbara at the long service awards @ROHNHSFT. 20 yrs for me and 45 yrs for Barbara!
We go way back. Old family friends.
Barbara was already working at ROH the year I was born and even came to visit me at The Women's Hospital down the road before I was a day old.
Fantastic to see so many at the first #SchwartzRound of 2024 @ROHNHSFT today. Our largest turn out so far! Really interesting and thought provoking stories from our panelists and audience on the theme of "Why I work in the ROH". Thanks to all involved. See you at the next one.
It's been a great start for our Sarcoma Research Training Day, so far we've heard why more research is needed, surgical management of #sarcomas and use of cryoablation.
@BCRT@FundRoh

This @royalmarsdenNHS and @ICR_London study found that an AI algorithm was far better than a biopsy at correctly grading the aggressiveness of sarcomas.
These results look promising. We welcome any research that helps patients receive better treatment.
