Hosted by cancer survivor and radio broadcaster Julie McCrossin, the event was entertaining and informative as Julie spoke of her own experience of head and neck radiation therapy and her amazingly positive results.
Our guest speaker, Associate Professor Puma Sundaresan, Consultant Radiation Oncologist at Blacktown and Westmead Hospital and member of the TROG Scientific Committee and TROG Cancer Research Board member, provided an inspiring and informative presentation on TROG Cancer Research processes.
Focusing on trial development from initial stages through to end results of changing clinical practice, she provided guests with insight into the vital role TROG Cancer Research plays for researchers, medical professionals, patients, and the wider community. As well as enjoying a sumptuous high tea, guests showed great generosity taking part in a silent auction and raffle with plenty of donated prizes.
