Jeremy Slone, Associate Member at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, shared on LinkedIn:
“Nearly 18 years after a life-changing medical student elective in Papua New Guinea, I had an opportunity to return as part of an incredible team for an International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) imPACT mission in partnership with the World Health Organization, IARC – International Agency for Research on Cancer / World Health Organization, and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
We engaged with colleagues focused on cancer, visited key locations, and discussed national cancer control priorities. I was honored to address delegates of the Medical Society of Papua New Guinea Annual Symposium on prioritizing childhood cancer in national cancer control planning. Our in-country mission concluded with a visit with the Minister of Health, the Honorable Dr. Lino Tom, MP, but the work continues.”
