"It is not a death sentence if it is picked up early"

Associate Professor Sue Crengle talked to RNZ yesterday about lung cancer screening, which in overseas trials have shown a large decrease in mortality - especially for women.

We are excited to announce that our director Dr Emma Wyeth (& research team), has received funding from the (HRC). The project that has been funded is POIS-10 Māori, which aims to understand and improve long-term outcomes and experiences for injured Māori and their whānau.

[Ngāi Tahu Māori Health Research Unit @NTMHRU]

The project will also increase the number of Māori health researchers. This includes our very own Assistant Research Fellow, Ms Vicky Nelson, who is "excited" and “feels privileged” to be under taking her PhD as part of this project, and with the team.

[Ngāi Tahu Māori Health Research Unit @NTMHRU]

Puaka Matariki has risen, and the NTMHRU wants to wish everyone a very Happy Māori New Year. We take this time to reflect on the year that has been, and be open to new growth in the year ahead.

Kai pai tou tatou Matariki!

A waiata for all Wahine Māori, Indigenous women, Black Women, Women of Colour who live daily in struggle against colonising systems that perpetuate the intersection of racism, misogyny, classism, homophobia upon our beings and within our communities. https://t.co/jUBDfs8nKf

Any 'Wellness' Budget that does not include the support for Māori to be self-determining in our processes for caring for our tamariki and mokopuna, and for our whānau to have the support we need to achieve rangatiratanga - is not a Wellness Budget for Māori.

[Leonie Pihama @kaupapamaori]

If the CEO Ministry of Children thinks that the superficial replies & the incompetent responses to our challenges to the increasing removal of Māori babies is enough to silence our people then she is sorely mistaken. The same issues are being reproduced daily in that Ministry.

[Dr Mieke Snijder @academieke]

Very inspiring stories from Stanley Vollant, emphasising that colonisation is still very much a modern day burden on Indigenous Peoples, but also the amazing strengths and wisdom of Indigenous Peoples that we should listen to for #decolonisation and #healthpromotion #IUHPE2019

[Moana M @moanatribe]

This article by Max Harris 👇🏽 and the other @etangata one by Moana Jackson are bordering-on-brilliant companion pieces. Timely, thought provoking. Proud of E-Tangata, Tapu & Gary. ✊🏽
