Did you know there are around four billion people who are at risk for dengue? People like my colleague Dr. Louis Macareo are researching ways to limit and combat the risks of this infectious disease. #MSDProud https://t.co/aN2mCA13eQ
My colleagues with nursing experience bring tremendous value and patient insights to MSD. Their perspectives and real-world knowledge help us think holistically about our research, innovation and care. https://t.co/Dlt8Ponoqb #MSDProud https://t.co/9XBfCxAMe8
I would encourage all Haematology trainees to sign up to @ALLGtrials - a wonderful way to interact with colleagues from across ๐ฆ๐บ & ๐ณ๐ฟ and learn about and get involved in the development of investigator initiated clinical trials.
A #digital enabled #patient centric service needs people/customers in the centre, real-time feedback, build on a platform of trust, & transcends borders by including geo diversity, taxonomy alignment. Service NSW app is a great example @VictorDominello#VeevaSummit@veevasystems
I learnt something new today:
โ๏ธ "Smoker"/"Non-Smoker"
โ๏ธ "Person who currently smokes"
โ๏ธ "Person who formerly smoked"
โ๏ธ "Person who has never smoked"
Labels matter.

In Australia, one person is diagnosed with a rare or less common cancer every 10 minutes. Each day, 69 people lose their lives. Although they account for one third of all cancer diagnoses, they contribute to over half of all cancer deaths. #RareCancersAwarenessDay#WeAreRare
A rare cancer diagnosis can be a very isolating and uncertain journey. It can help to hear about others who have walked the path before you. For patient stories full of hope, strength, honesty and courage, visit https://t.co/Pk6xWzznvD #youarenotalone
