Prof. Andrew Barbour’s brilliant talk reminds us that YES, there is! #Togetheramplifyingtheimpact #MelanomaCare #CancerResearch #AMC2024 Melanoma Institute Australia Translational Research Institute

As Australian Melanoma & Skin Cancer Alliance Chair, it was a fabulous opportunity to showcase the achievements of our 11 melanoma & skin cancer Alliance member organisations at #AMC2024. But, to discover the hidden dramatic arts talents of our consumers during the debate in the same session was priceless!

Despite saying he’s all for sun safety, Nic’s comment says it all ‘not if it’s going to ruin my tan’. ⬇️ What a great role model for people under 40y - NOT. According to our Austs of the Year Professor Georgina Long AO (Bluesky @gvlongphdmd) & Professor Richard Scolyer AO, #melanoma experts, there’s nothing healthy about a tan.
