The Canberra Brain Cancer collaborative was honoured to be awarded Private Practice Funding! Our researchers and clinicians @ACTHealth and @JCSMR @ourANU will a continue to work hard to improve outcomes for patients ☺️
Congratulations #ANUExpert @Quinn_Lab & the Canberra Brain Cancer Collaborative on securing $150,000 from the Major Private Practice Fund! 👏 The prognosis for people with brain cancer remains poor - this funding will help to improve outcomes for patients in the ACT and beyond.

How can we understand brain cancer using the fruit fly? 🪰 🧠 Our first speaker to announce is Damien Muckle! A PhD candidate in the @Quinn_Lab at @JCSMR. He uses the fruit fly as a genetic model to understand the initiation and progression of human brain cancers. 1/2
