SUMMARY:EVA Air Sunshine Coast Marathon 2025
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday 3 August 2025 for the Sunshine Coast Marathon! Since its inception\, the Sunshine Coast Marathon has raised over $2 million for charity and community groups. \nLocated on the stunning Sunshine Coast\, this event has been timed to make the most of the ideal Queensland winter running conditions. Blue skies\, low humidity and mild temperatures combined with a flat course always enable fast times. \nEvent distances include the Marathon\, Half Marathon\, 10km\, 5km and the 2km. Each road race follows the stunning coastline of Alexandra Headland with white sandy beaches and spectacular vantage points alongside the ocean. The Half Marathon is a one-loop course with Marathon entrants completing a multi-loop course (1 x 21km + 2 x 10.5km’s) making the most of the on-course entertainment and crowds of spectators before a red carpet ‘hero’ finish. \nWith a distance to suit everyone\, this community-focused\, world-class athletic event caters to all ages and abilities. \nThe 2km event allows parents with prams and wheelchair entrants to take part and enjoy the festival atmosphere. Race start times are scheduled to allow for parents to run the longer distances and then return in time to run with the kids and enjoy all the free fun in the family entertainment precinct. \nWhen you nominate MIA as your charity of choice\, funds raised support our life-saving melanoma research\, so we can reach our mission of zero deaths from melanoma. \nMake sure you set up your fundraising page\, as well as registering for the event – both can be done at the link below. \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:2025 MOGA Annual Scientific Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The 2025 MOGA Annual Scientific Meeting will bring Australian Oncologists together to discuss\, learn\, and plan as we pivot further into the rapidly expanding field of cancer immunotherapy. The meeting Beyond the Checkpoints – Navigating the Immunotherapy Revolution\, will be a timely opportunity to explore how immunotherapy has not replaced\, but has enriched cancer care alongside more established treatment approaches. The meeting will draw national and international experts together to face the dual challenges of immunotherapy failure and immune-related adverse events. Sessions will provide updates on key clinical advances across major cancer types\, and cover the insights needed for attendees to stay ahead of the next wave of immunotherapeutics that lie Beyond the Checkpoints. How clinicians navigate the ever-changing treatment options\, moving goalposts of survival\, and access to evolving standards of care will form the central focus of this year’s professional sessions. \nAs the peak national scientific forum for Medical Oncologists\, the 2025 meeting will host a comprehensive mix of scientific and professional sessions including dedicated trainee and YOGA content\, oral and poster presentations\, an extensive Industry Exhibition\, and networking and social events headlined by the Annual Meeting Dinner. \nWe welcome you to join your colleagues for an energising Annual Meeting in Melbourne on 12 – 14 August\, 2025. \nREGISTER NOW
