Having a parent pass away from non smoking related lung cancer years back, it was an emotional moment hearing consumer Lillian Leigh share her thoughts and speak to the first new national lung cancer screening program in nearly 20 years at #COSA2023.

I've been reflecting on all that I've had the privilege to learn from HRH Princess Dina Mird of Jordan @dinamired at @IASLC #WCLC23 this week, and I'm fired up more than ever to tackle inequities. Medical advancements MUST not leave global citizens behind.

[Dr Anne-Marie Baird @BairdAM]

So special to meet, and have Her Royal Highness Princess Dina Mired of Jordan @dinamired as part of the STARS workshop to discuss Policy Advocacy with @ProjectBreath and Andrew Ciupek
