@gwalls89 @DanRSMiddleton @Rawan_716 @CPH_QUB @QubCancer @gerryhanna @DrJNaidoo @LungCommunity This is very interesting, Gerard. Our country (Thailand) has one of the highest PM2.5 levels in the world https://t.co/FaOHhP3TDe and lung cancer rates are increasing sharply. We are trying to tackle this epidemic phenomenon (PM2.5 and cancer) through research.

Toxic smog from burning farms shroud large swathes of Thailand at the beginning of every year.

Really important study for people living in NI... We might think of our air being clean compared to other places, but pollution still changes the lives of ~150 families per year here @DanRSMiddleton @Rawan_716 @CPH_QUB @QubCancer

Iโm really looking forward to the @LungCommunity LC Patients Symposium promises to be a ๐event, top speakers providing useful practical information and of course time to meet others who have been impacted by the disease. Do you know someone who would benefit from attending???
SAVE THE DATE! The ILCC will be holding an in-person Patient & Caregiver event this Lung Cancer Awareness Month. It will be on Saturday the 22nd November from 11-4pm in the Midlands Park Hotel, Portlaoise. Keep an eye out for further details!

UCAN Ireland are concerned at the lack of forward planning. Outdated #radiotherapy equipment that cannot support modern treatments or participation in clinical trials has led to substandard care. Irish cancer patients deserve better. #UnitedCancerVoicesIE
Thank you @IrishTimes for highlighting this. Unfortunately Minister @CarrollJennifer has completely missed the point describing reactive replacement of ancient machines. Can we not be proactive and ensure this does not happen again? @UCANIRELAND

Cancer trials offer access to life-changing treatments now and shape the future of cancer care. But Ireland urgently needs more support to keep them going. This campaign is about raising our collective voice - for patients today, and for generations to come. Please sign and
