The National Germ Cell Group is sad to learn of the death of Professor Tim Oliver. A genius and legend, one of a kind. His contribution to urology cancer care was immeasurable - many lives have been saved and touched by his work and care. RIP Prof - a true gentleman

One of the best scientific debates I’ve witnessed between Prof Mike Seckl @ImperialNHS and Prof @robert_huddart @royalmarsdenNHS on management of brain mets in GCT patients. Thank you both for a superb session. #NGCGEaling25 @NGermCellG
Dr Sam Strumeier talking about the complexities of testosterone deficiency management and Vince and Toby from the Testicular Cancer Network speaking about their patient survey results. The TCN patient representative voice is so powerful

Fabulous talk by Mr James Douglas about the history of RPLND in testicular cancer and the development of a novel referral pathway for testicular lumps and how that’s working. Improving patient experience
