A few snaps from the past couple of weeks of 20+ hours of consumer in research interactions. Workshops, meetings, grant reviews....

Never a dull moment at @daffodilcentre.org Team Day!

Sydney I'm proud of you. Latest estimate of the March for Humanity was 300,000 of us peacefully protesting on a wet, winter's day.

Congratulations all Cancer Council Research Award recipients. A delightful celebration last night, with so many inspiring conversations researchers and fellow consumers. Head and heart full (tummy not so for non-meat eaters!).

Tis the season.
Last year I swapped Easter for Songkran in Thailand and stashed a dozen hot cross buns in the freezer for winter. Excellent idea ...and so the bun freezing season begins!

Congratulations Bayley on submitting his PhD today! The inaugural Jill Emberson Pink meets Teal PhD Scholarship recipient at HMRI who has been working on drug repurposing for treatment resistant #ovariancancer The A Team wish him the best and are excited to see what happens next in his career.

See you at the NHAA Symposium in May!

So many highlights from #Surv25 but connecting with other consumers like @shona22.bsky.social is always a highlight.Two years is too long between conferences!

A pleasure to share the A Team's collaboration with researchers in the MRFF Drug Repurposing for Ovarian Cancer study at #Surv25 poster session.

Great start to COSA Survivorship 2025, a cancer conference like no other! Presented at the pre-conference workshop, with Prof Nikola Bowden about our successful researche-consumer partnership. Followed by a rousing 'you can't ask that' panel discussion.

A privilege to be invited to participate in the Daffodil Centre Team Day. Quick photo op with three members of the consumer involvement in research panel!

Who are these women and how do I join them?

Always a pleasure to spend time with the amazing ovarian stream researchers at the Daffodil Centre.
