Deep dive into inequities in NZ Prostate Cancer diagnosis, treatment and quality of life begins
Welcome Dr. Eng Ann Toh- MB ChB (Otago) PhD Medicine (Otago) DPH (Otago) MPH (Otago),
We are thrilled to to have Dr. Eng Toh leading a research project that will use PCOR-NZ data to analyse inequities in the diagnosis, treatment and quality of life of NZ men living with prostate cancer. The project is funded with generous donations from BikeforBlokes and The Movember Foundation. This is a vital topic that needs attention and with the contribution of over 18000 men to PCOR-NZ we have the data to make a difference. Eng is undertaking this work as he completes his advanced training in public health medicine, and will be based at the Urology Department of Christchurch Hospital. We will keep you posted on his progress and insights.
We're excited to share some updates on the NZ Prostate Cancer Outcome Registry (PCOR-NZ) as we celebrate 8 years of operation and over 23,000 participants!
Big news: Dr. Eng Toh has secured a $30,000 Health Research Council activation grant to examine ethnic inequities alongside other factors affecting positive surgical margin rates in men with Prostate cancer
