In ancient Greece, women were forbidden to study medicine for several years until someone broke the law. Born in 300 BC, Agnodice cut her hair and entered Alexandria medical school dressed as a man. While walking the streets of Athens after completing her medical education, she

Delighted to have been invited to give a talk at @TheChristieSoO about the role (and importance of) resistance training in breast cancer. First time I’ve done a squat, in a suit during a talk 😁 #exerciseoncology #postcancerlifestyle #resistancetraining

New study in the BMJ this week from Oxford Uni assesses long-term risk of invasive breast cancer after pre-invasive disease (DCIS). https://t.co/M5KKWUBaQg https://t.co/M5KKWUBaQg https://t.co/MBSKD3ekGn

📚 New study in @bmj_latest delves into the long-term risk of invasive breast cancer after pre-invasive disease. 👩‍⚕️ The increased risk persists for at least 25 years post-diagnosis, emphasising the need for extended monitoring. #BreastCancerResearch Link: https://t.co/ZfjiZoyK3x

"The results suggest that longer follow-up after ductal carcinoma in situ might be recommended because risks remain high for a long period after diagnosis." Marjanka K Schmidt and colleagues comment on a new study https://t.co/yG3N67YCtx

Women who are diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ outside the NHS breast screening programme are around 4 times as likely to develop invasive breast #cancer and to die from breast cancer than women in the general population, finds study @GurdeepMannu https://t.co/MmN2oyXOK2

Amazing talk from @GurdeepMannu @SABCSSanAntonio giving an overview of axillary treatment in early breast cancer

Many congrats to our team @Oxford_NDPH (Carolyn Taylor, David Dodwell, Paul McGale, @jake_probert, @GurdeepMannu, Amanda Kerr and Sarah Darby) plus our collaborators, on the publication of this paper. 😀Good news for patients! https://t.co/QfjI4qFm6U https://t.co/u0iOBmxHTB

The Aberdeen knot 🪢 was called that way when Sir James Learmonth at @aberdeenuni @AbdnLifeScience use it because he noted that it used less thread than the surgeon’s knot and now is the ideal knot for end a closure of a laparotomy! #SoMe4Surgery @rbarbosa91 @SWexner @pferrada1

I never fail to be fascinated by comparative anatomy across the animal kingdom!
