Great to be in beautiful Edinburgh for the National #Mesothelioma Education Day 2025 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Dr Neil McGlinchey kicking off the meeting in fantastic setting at Royal College of Physicians

Looking forward to this tomorrow ⬇️

National #Mesothelioma Network Education Day

✅ New Management Guideline
🩻 New Staging (TNM 9)
📈 Review of Audit Performance (QPI)

Plus Trials, Interventional Pain, Pleural Nursing & Horizon scanning

…then, dinner with team 🎉🍷

It was great to be part of the BTOG/MesoUK Essential Update meeting this week

Topics included diagnostics, new Rx, CNS roles, legal, pleural

Nice to see 2 current PhD students presenting

Matthew Tate presenting outcomes from the Scottish #Mesothelioma Network

⬆️ Overall Survival in Non-Epi cases
⬆️ Use of Immunotherapy
⬆️ OS in Non-Epi cases not receiving IO

Mesothelioma networks should be developed across the UK

Heading home after a fantastic #BTSWinter2024 Leaving energised and grateful for friends and the opportunity to talk #mesothelioma in the Plenary Scientific Symposium. Also excited for 2025 under our new BTS President!

This morning I presented results of the STRATIFY multi-centre trial of staging thoracoscopy for minimal pleural effusion in lung cancer. The prevalence of occult pleural mets was only 14%, thoracoscopy was safe & altered treatment plans. Paper coming soon! #BTSWinter2024

Day 2 of #WinterBTS2024 started with a sunny walk in followed by presentation of STRATIFY results (pleural staging of Mini-PE). Next up is #mesothelioma presentation at Plenary Scientific Symposium 😬

For anyone attending the Winter BTS meeting next week, we're having a Meso-ORIGINS study investigators' meeting on Wed 27th Nov. 1230-130pm, Rutherford Room on L4. Come and join if you're involved or just interested! #mesothelioma

Amazing study from colleagues at @uofglasgow.bsky.social @cruk-si.bsky.social reporting a histomorphological atlas of #mesothelioma Survival prediction + new biological insights via self-supervised AI. Excited to see how it performs on pre-meso biopsies! #PREDICT-Meso www.biorxiv.org/content/bior...

I like to think my research is patient centred - turns out it is!

On Wednesday this week we hosted our first PREDICT-Meso Young Investigators’ Day in Glasgow. Blown away by the progress and quality of our PhD students & postdocs. The future of #mesothelioma research looks bright! @cruk-si.bsky.social @uofglasgow.bsky.social @djmurphylab2.bsky.social
