2026 UNSW Cancer Reimagined
“I attended this event and was amazed by the breadth of knowledge and the potential for Precision Medicine as the pioneering breakthrough in healthcare that will likely shift the status quo. It only remains to be delivered clinically to see epic transformations in mortality and cancer outcomes. I was pleasantly surprised by the fact a majority of the panel (Adjunct Prof Samantah Oakes, Prof Tracey O’Brien AM and Prof Fatemeh Vafaee) along with the brilliant moderator Julie McCrossin AM were strong female representatives. Truly role models to the incoming generation of students and aspiring clinicians/researchers including myself.”
