Hi everyone,

Another day, another headline about ANU. It’s never easy to read about a place you love couched in constantly critical terms, especially when you know how much good happens here too. Don’t get me wrong, there is a lot here we need to fix, there are real challenges we need to face, and a lot of things we need to change. And we have been doing a lot of changing recently, big, and small.

Change by its very nature is never easy. It took hundreds of decisions and choices, small and large, by people all over the University to get us to this point over many years, and it will take hundreds of decisions and choices, small and large by people all over the University to get us back on a sound footing, not just financially, but operationally and structurally. It will mean new ways of doing things, focused on accountability, financial prudence, and a whole-of-university approach to systems improvement. Another step in that path is the change proposals,  that are currently in consultation and I encourage you to read them and provide your feedback. And I thank and acknowledge our staff who are impacted for your ongoing commitment to this place, and your work.

ANU and Canberra Health Services will lead a world first clinical trial targeting some of the most treatment resistant cancers including prostate, breast, ovarian and blood cancers. 

Led by Professor and Haematologist Mark Polizzotto and supported by the Medical Research Future Fund, the trial will test a new drug called the PMR 116 which has been developed by ANU researchers. Shifting away from traditional cancer type based trials, the study targets MYC, a key cancer driving protein implicated in the majority of cancers. 

The trial will be conducted across major hospitals in Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne, offering new hope for patients who have exhausted standard treatment options.
