This special edition of PharmaCast, which celebrates International Women’s Day 2023, centres on the experience of women living with and affected by secondary breast cancer. Dr Erin Magee from the School is joined by three amazing women who each have unique connections to secondary breast cancer, including Erin’s mother Joanne who lives with secondary breast cancer, Dr Niamh Buckley, Reader in Personalised Medicine at the School of Pharmacy, and Jennifer Willis, the photographer behind the Seen to be Heard project, which documents the lives of 23 women from Northern Ireland who are living with secondary breast cancer.
