PC4 GP Circle Webinar

We welcome all interested GPs, practice nurses and practice managers to attend this webinar. We look forward to hearing from A/Prof Jo-Anne Manski-Nankervis, A/Prof Jenny McIntosh and Shakira Milton.

• Learn from A/Prof Jo-Anne Manski-Nankervis about how new technology such as Future Health Today (FHT) and TorchRecruit is helping primary care research. FHT is a software platform designed by general practice, for general practice, that applies algorithms to data stored in electronic medical records to identify people who may be at risk of, or have a health condition that might benefit from optimisation of management.

• SmartScreen, led by Prof Jon Emery and A/Prof Jenny McIntosh, is the foundation for the new SMARTERScreen trial. SmartScreen investigated whether an SMS from your GP would increase participation in the Australian National Bowel Cancer Screening Program.
• Shakira Milton is a Research Fellow and PhD candidate working within screening, prevention, and early diagnosis of cancer with a particular focus on bowel cancer, patient experience and decision aid development. Shakira presents an RCT of a decision aid to support informed choices about taking aspirin to prevent colorectal cancer and other chronic diseases: a study protocol for the SITA (Should I Take Aspirin?) trial.

Note for attendees: please ensure your microphone is muted during the presentations. A close-captioned recording of this webinar will be available after the event.
