Farewell Hannah! ❤️
Thank you so much for all of your incredible work on the Early Detection Project. You have been a true asset to the team, and we are so sad to see you go. Your dedication, thoughtfulness, and hard work have made a real difference, and your impact will be felt long after you’ve left.

With some recent changes to our group we wanted to take the opportunity to reintroduce ourselves 💛

Starting with Dr Kristina Warton, Senior Research Fellow at UNSW Medicine & Health and the lead of our ovarian cancer early detection project. Kristina has long been at the heart of this work, bringing extensive experience in molecular science, translational research and biotechnology. She leads the development of a simple blood test aimed at detecting ovarian cancer earlier, when outcomes can be significantly improved, and is driven by a commitment to translating research into meaningful impact for people and communities affected by ovarian cancer.
