Announcing a first in Australia - linking primary care and hospital data for cancer research for the first time. Thank you @MaryAnneThomas @VicGovAu for supporting this vital work that will unlock answers to real world questions and improve outcomes. Congrats @ProfJonEmery & team

The CRISP tool increased risk-appropriate screening for bowel cancer in general practice settings, specifically for patients with average risk who were due for screening. It's a promising step towards implementing this tool in practice.

[University of Melbourne Cancer in Primary Care @UMCPC_official]

New paper alert 🚨 How do we find the right test for each person when it comes to #bowelcancer #screening? We tested a new online tool #CRISP which uses personalised #risk profiles to detect cancers earlier!

It’s taken 1️⃣7️⃣ years to implement 14% of evidence-based findings! We need to speed up high quality translational cancer research to impact patient care. @UMCPC_official we are currently running 6 GP clinical trials. Follow us to find out more! Slide by @CG_MazJo #Surv23

@ProfJonEmery and @sibel_saya exploring the potential of polygenic risk scores 🧬 to improve early cancer diagnosis through:
⏺️ risk stratified screening and
⏺️ triaging patients with non-specific symptoms

Looking forward to another great edition of the @CaPRINetwork conference in March. It's been a pleasure to plan #CaPRI2023 with the exec committee.

[Ca-PRI @CaPRINetwork]

Ca-PRI 2023 will be held at Worcester College, Oxford, on 22nd-24th March 2023. Look out for the Call for Abstract, Registration, and Accommodation links from mid-October. #CaPRI2023
Also look out for an online Survivorship seminar on Thursday, November 17, registration link soon

[Jon Emery @ProfJonEmery]

Michael and I shared two of our papers in the Cancer Survivorship @TheLancet series on this PC4 podcast episode. Always great to discuss innovative ways to improve cancer survivorship care across the board.

What if #cancer was more like diabetes in the way we managed it ongoingly? With a growing number of cancer survivors, we need to look at new models of care.

Can’t wait for round 2 of our comms workshop - this time at the AAAPC conference!

[Jon Emery @ProfJonEmery]

In Adelaide today for the annual @PC4TG Strategic Planning Day. We gave an update on the new MRFF-funded SMARTERscreen trial around increasing #bowel #cancer screening through personalised SMS messages. This builds on the success of the SMARTscreen trial @M_Jefford

[Jon Emery @ProfJonEmery]

We began developing the CRISP trial ten years ago.
The RCT tested a risk-prediction tool for colorectal screening in general practice. In parallel, we conducted an implementation study with practice nurses in a primary care setting. Thanks to PC4 for supporting this study.

[PC4 @PC4TG]

Changing practice is a crucial outcome of primary care research. Here, we ran an implementation study alongside an RCT for a colorectal cancer risk tool for screening in general practice. @ProfJonEmery @ShakiraMilton @jenmcintosh22 @sibel_saya @markaj64 https://t.co/CctKQQG5Ft

Breaking ground on the plan to roll out PARTNER across Australia. Pleased with our progress - especially after lunch @JanRadford @kristi_milley

[Jon Emery @ProfJonEmery]

Today's inaugural PARTNER meeting is facilitated by @Nzeps. Primary care experts Jan, Nigel, David and Andrew shared their insight into the rural clinical trial landscape in each state. Plenty of opportunities - and obstacles. #primarycare #ruralhealth #clinicaltrials

[Jon Emery @ProfJonEmery]

The great minds behind PARTNER: national manager @kristi_milley and state representatives @JanRadford (Vic and Tas), Nigel Stocks (SA), David Gonzalez-Chica (SA), and Andrew Kirke (WA).

Landed in Hobart this morning for the first official meeting of PARTNER - a national network connecting clinical trials to rural and regional Australia.
