"I'm working with Pr. Melissa Henry on the State of Psycho-Oncology in African National Cancer Control Plans. We are hoping to include palliative care and other extremely important aspects of care for patients with cancer into National Cancer Control Plans. With Dr. Henry, I am currently working to set up meetings with stakeholders around the world to gain insights for the project. Currently, the team and I are working to put together a presentation for a two-day interdisciplinary meeting with experts and consultants.

I'm excited about getting to contribute to such an important project and work with Pr. Henry!"

McGill University is located on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous Peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg Nations. McGill honours, recognizes, and respects these nations as the traditional stewards of the lands and waters on which peoples of the world now gather. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous Peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
