The annual Ann Moyal Lecture will be delivered by Professor Georgiana Long AO and address the question 'When groundbreaking cancer treatments save 50% of patients, what happens to the other half?'
Professor Georgina Long, Joint Australian of the Year 2024 and one of the world's leading melanoma researchers and medical oncologists, takes us into medicine's "Third Space" - the territory where conventional solutions fail and new evidence must be created. Drawing on her experience developing experimental drug therapies, Long explores why breakthrough science requires not just brilliant minds, but extraordinary courage.
A lecture about cancer research that's really about something much bigger: how we create truth, who we trust, and why unsolved problems are where the next generation of discoveries begins.
