My sister (aged 41) is terminal with metastatic breast cancer. I was told the Peter Mac was the best in Australia. Tried to get a second opinion to explore all treatment options here in Oz. No phone call. This is how the Peter Mac treats the most desperate cancer patients.

We just had a very exciting unit seminar talk by @ellvlirae from the Genomic Epidemolgy Branch(GEM) at @IARCWHO on the largest GWAS results from the @HEADSpAcE_Study

Slowly watching the talks from #eshg2023 and so far my personal favorite was from @CAuwerx titled "Copy-number variants as modulators of common disease susceptibility"... one of the best CNV talks I have ever seen. Great work
