Back at work for #2023 and time to get some writing done. #coffeefirst☕️ instagram.com/p/Cm-NdIoPIAa/…
It’s so important to hear from people with lived experience. Thank you Lora for sharing your story and raising awareness for #headandneckcancer

Last week, we published an explainer for oral cancer, just one type of #headandneckcancer on @ConversationEDU theconversation.com/amp/what…
Finally found an hour for "snack writing" our paper on the development of a tool to measure the impact of #dysphagia on #carers of people with #HNC and the fire alarm in the building went off 15 minutes in! Why is writing SO hard! #AcademicChatter #academicmom

Lovely to this on the Stuff website today @CarolineJM26 @kebabby_mae stuff.co.nz/life-style/wellb…
This infographic from @happyasamother on IG is really speaking to me this morning! Anyone have tips for making the mornings a little easier? #academicmoms

More than 4000 Australians are diagnosed with head & neck cancers each year
What do you know about them?
After the news of John Farnham's surgery for oral cancer @rebeccanund of #UQ & others write in @ConversationEDU

Absolutely - I love @rebeccanund qualitative publications on dysphagia following head and neck cancer. Eating and drinking is often a social activity. Patients can be excluded if they can't eat. The psychological impact of dysphagia need to be considered more.
Citing research by @rebeccanund, @justinroe reminds us that we need an interdisciplinary and proactive approach to support the swallowing, nutrition and lifestyle changes of our patients and their carers/family post head and neck cancer treatment. @anzhncs

Delighted to hear Justin Roe speak on importance of rehabilitation following treatment of #headandneck @anzhncs asm2022. Thanks for acknowledging Rebecca Nund’s work on swallowing outcomes @PARFoundation @justinroe @JulieMcCrossin

Great closing statements by #keynotespeaker @justinroe .... "we can't always make things better.... need to think more about psychological well being and adjustment.... for patients and carers" #HNC #survivorship #anzhncsasm22 @anzhncs @COSA_Surviv

Almost 4,000 Australians are diagnosed with head and neck cancer each year, and oral cancer is one type.
John Farnham’s diagnosis comes as a shock to many, but as @latrobe experts write, there is little public awareness about oral cancer. bit.ly/3Rab9MD
