Our lucky @UsydPsych third year Abnormal Psychology students are hearing from @RachelEMenzies today on #DeathAnxiety. A wonderful lecture illuminating fears of death across literature and art and presenting her elegant work about death anxiety as a transdiagnostic construct. 🧟‍♂️☠️

Fascinating case of #AYA #testicularcancer illustrating many of the issues faced by these men (e.g. impact on academic achievement, more general anxiety, reluctance to engage with #psychosocial care) presented by @usansomdaly at the @CanTeenAus @COSAoncology #AYA day

@IlonaJuraskova presenting the development of #eTRIO. The importance of family sharing in communication about cancer cannot be under estimated, but adds to complexity. ETRIO is a training program for HCPs. #POCOG19
