Tracey O’Brien: Celebrating The Women That Help to Shape Better Futures for People With Cancer

Tracey O’Brien, Chief Cancer Officer and CEO of Cancer Institute NSW, shared Cancer Institute NSW’s post on LinkedIn:

“It’s women like A/Prof Mei Ling Yap, Prof Nikola Bowden, Dr Shabarni Gupta and A/Professor Christine Chaffer who are inspiring young girls across NSW that they too can make a difference for people with cancer.

This International Day Of Women And Girls In Science, we celebrate the extraordinary women who are helping shape better futures for people with cancer, a disease that still takes the lives of far too many people in our community.

To all the women working in STEM, thank you for your passion, achievements and for helping pave the way for generations to come.”

Quoting Cancer Institute NSW’s post:

“On International Day Of Women And Girls In Science, we’re celebrating women who are helping shape better cancer outcomes in NSW.

From the introduction of new intelligence technologies, to ongoing collaboration with clinicians and patients, cancer research being undertaken by women is contributing to groundbreaking discoveries along the cancer care continuum, inspiring the next generation of researchers in the field.

The Cancer Institute NSW is proud to support women who are dedicating their careers to cancer research and will continue to champion a research community that works to reduce the burden of cancer for everyone.
