You could hear a pin drop in this room! All so captivated by @DrAndreaLSmith in her amazing story of #advocacy and #science for metastatic breast cancer. #NSWCancerConf2023

[Michael Trpceski @MichaelTrpceski]

Two days of excellent science talks done here in Sydney, with a stellar range of cancer researchers from across our state! Thanks to the organisers for having me! #NSWCancerConf23 @NSWCancerConf @CancerSPHERE @GarvanInstitute @Timpson_Lab

[Dr Anna Singleton She/Her @DrAnnaSingleton]

I’m in awe of Prof @nikolabowden & team’s work about repurposing drugs for novel #Cancer treatments

Repurposing cuts down the years from testing to patient-use by HALF because the drugs have already been found safe for humans

Excited to see the next steps!

Collaboration is so very important to move forward with #CancerResearch and improving diagnosis and prognosis for those diagnosed with cancer

[Dr Carolyn Mazariego-Jones @CG_MazJo]

At a loss for words to describe the impactful presentation from consumer-researcher @DrAndreaLSmith

Your personal story, expertise & passion to move the dial to ensure #supportivecare is inclusive for those living with metastatic breast cancer is nothing short of inspiring.

Interesting to hear what behaviours and behavioural changes impact on cancer the most. Physical activity🏃🏻‍♀️ and smoking cessation 🚭 are the big ones.
