A new study monitoring a community-led pill-testing service at a music festival has found the vast majority of attendees would discard drugs found to contain unexpected substances - which could have a big impact on preventing overdoses and drug-related deaths.
Guest Speaker Professor Nina Tirnitz-Parker, Head of the Liver Disease and Regeneration Group at Curtin University and Liver Cancer Lead at the Curtin Health Innovation Research Institute, will highlight the unmet clinical needs in chronic liver disease and cancer and present the Liver Cancer Collaborative (LCC) approach towards improved patient outcomes. She will be joined by Dr Weitao Lin from the CPH Cancer stream who will share his research on intercellular communication between uveal melanoma cells and stromal cells in the liver.
The August Centre for Precision Health Seminar Series will be an online webinar featuring our Suboptimal Health Stream. Our guest presenter Yanshan Zhu will present on her study investigating the transmission of SARS-Cov-2 (and variants) in children and the second presenter, Dr Hao Wang, will present on screening for multi-omics biomarkers for Suboptimal Health Status.
Should we do a little bit every day, or a few longer sessions per week? It appears one approach is far more beneficial then the other.
A world-first ECU study has confirmed the link between AD and gut health, which could lead to earlier detection and new potential treatments.
Our research shows for the first time that certain genetic features predispose cancer patients to develop side effects or toxicities to anti-cancer therapy.
Join the two Centres for a facilitated discussion on athletes, genetics and applying the precision health model.
