For the next Practice Network Meeting, we are very excited to have Professor Marion Saville AM, Executive Director and Public Officer, Australian Centre for the Prevention of Cervical Cancer, joining us to discuss self-collect screening option for cervical cancer. 

Marion is a New Zealand medical graduate who trained in Anatomic Pathology at Northwestern University in Chicago. She then completed a fellowship in in Cytopathology at East Carolina University and a research fellowship at Georgetown University, focussing on HPV. Marion is particularly interested in how culturally safe screening can meet the needs of disadvantaged groups who have poorer cancer outcomes, in Australia and New Zealand.

Marion was appointed as a member (AM) of the Order of Australia on Australia Day 2020 for her significant service to women’s health through cervical screening initiatives.

All practice staff are welcome to join.
