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.

@ProjectBreath highlights the need to connect primary & specialist cancer care- an issue identified by Victorian health staff & consumers in @AIHI_MQ’s #CanEngage Project. Codesign is underway with CALD communities @WesternHealth @Austin_Health & PHNs to create solutions #COSA23

"Words Matter" is not just a catch phrase, it's a simple and profound truth to combat #stigma - says @jillfeldman4
To the medical community, please use non-stigmatising language.

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.

Very interesting indeed, and a lot more discussions req'd with patients about the risks vs the benefits. Toxicity is real for osi, and higher with osi+chemo. Prof Yi-Long Wu has identified: psychological barriers are likely. #WCLC23 @IASLC @jillfeldman4 #lcsm
Very interesting results from FLAURA2. Significant improvement in PFS across all subsets. But most benefit seen in pt with CNS mets and L858R. More AEs with chemo but ILD same 3-4%. I think new SoC in these subsets #WCLC23

MARS2 conclusively proves that EPD surgery for "resectable"mesothelioma results in worse outcomes than chemotherapy alone #WCLC23. Amazing study and presentation. Congrats @DrSanjayPopat @DrRiyazShah and teams
