Conference season is underway, and the @ProstateUK research team will be in attendance to meet and promote our researchers, and find out about the latest developments in the field π€π
Let us know if you're going to any of the conferences below!
I've been a fan of #OurFutureHealth since it started. So I was delighted to be able to visit the clinic in #LeightonBuzzard this morning and play my part. Less than 15 minutes from start to finish. And yes, that post-retirement baking then grazing habit has to stop!
Weβre opening 19 new clinics in March so more people can volunteer for #OurFutureHealth and help us build the biggest picture we've ever had of people's health. Find your nearest location and sign up to enable people to live longer, healthier lives: ourfuturehealth.org.uk/news/β¦
Absolutely delighted to see this announcement today. Congratulations Team Sambai, especially @fiekefroeling and Professor Nigel Mongan @UofNFacultyMHS. Great news for #pancreaticcancer #prostatecancer and #breastcancer. Onwards!
Huge congratulations to Team SAMBAI & @fiekefroeling! Studying inequities in #pancreaticcancer @precisionpanc @UofGCancerSci @UofGMVLS @CancerGrand πππ

Today's @JCO_ASCO article reveals a gemcitabine transcriptomic signature, offering efficacy similar to mFOLFIRINOX but with reduced toxicity. This advance is significant for less fit patients, indicating progress in personalized cancer care. ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCOβ¦

#PancreaticCancer survival rates in the UK are the second lowest in Europe, and among the worst in the world, but five year survival rates could be transformed with a fairer, faster and funded pathway.

Not a post I could bring myself to 'like' @ahmadurology but really appreciate you posting it, so thank you. Genuinely shocked by this, I mean, 63.7? In 2023?!

Oh I do like a good Clinical Lectureship scheme and this from @CSO_Scotland and @NHS_Education looks like a great opportunity to combine research and clinical training. Decent deadline too, so no excuses not to get that application in! Please spread the word to those interested
The next round of the joint @NHS_Education and @CSO_Scotland lectureship scheme is open for applications.
The deadline for applications is 5pm on Wednesday 31 January, 2024.

Great blog @georgiapapPhD summing up a truly inspirational event following a lot of hard work from a lot of people. Many of us will be delighted that you are feeling inspired for the next phase- so are we, and here to support you along the way #DontWriteMeOff #FasterFairerFunded
On 19th October, we launched our vision for a #FasterFairerFunded pathway with an event in London.

Powerful, but sadly, familiar message from Dr Carolyn Diamond. Thank you, @PanCancerCanada, for sharing. It seems that this message could have come from many countries. I remain optimistic that by collaborating internationally we will make the progress needed! #DontWriteMeOff
Throughout #PancreaticCancerAwarenessMonth, we'll be sharing personal stories from our community members who are demanding #survivalnotsympathy with us.
Hear from Dr. Carolyn Diamond on why she advocates for change through early detection and treatment: bit.ly/3FDqotU
Very well-said @nigeljamieson. You won't be surprised to hear that I couldn't agree more with you! It is absolutely crucial. #PancreaticCancerAwarenessMonth #DontWriteMeOff #FasterFairerFunded

What a thoroughly well-deserved award @LondonProstate1, and I'm absolutely thrilled for you Hash. So many significant contributions already, and I know there are many more to come. Congratulations!
Congratulations to @LondonProstate1 on being awarded the BAUS Golden Telescope award. The award is given to clinicians who have made a significant contribution to urology. A true expert and leader in the field of prostate cancer diagnostics and management. @ImperialPeople

Late stage diagnosis is a big reason why this disease is so often fatal. By recognizing the symptoms, listening to our bodies, and raising concerns with our doctors, we can see early detection and treatment lead us to improved survival rates. Learn more: bit.ly/3odj27w
What a super read @CancerAustralia. Congratulations on your first national cancer plan, and I'm looking forward to watching its successful implementation play out. Delighted that @CancerAustralia is a valued partner of @icrpartners1
Australiaβs first national cancer plan is for all cancers and all Australians with a focus on addressing disparity of experience and outcome. It covers every step of cancer care from prevention and early detection through to end-of-life-care australiancancerplan.gov.au
Absolutely no criticism of you @Suzanne_Scott_ This thread on your paper is brilliant, but payment to @TheLancetOncol is needed for people like me to read the full paper. I see a report is due on patients' views. Hopefully, we won't need to pay to see results about our own views
Excited to share the results of our study on risk of cancer 1-5 years after urgent suspected cancer referral when cancer was not found in year 0-1.
We tracked cancer occurrence in a national cohort of 1.3 million patients.
