Today marks the launch of our new report, The Real Face of Men's Health, outlining the real picture of men's health and its impact on society. Here's what you need to know: - Men are dying too young from mostly preventable reasons - Where men live has an alarmingly significant impact on how long they live - Men's health impacts everyone, not just men. But there's hope. By improving men's health, we can have a profoundly positive impact on women, families, and society. Healthier men means a healthier world. We've outlined clear steps for positive change, calling on government to step up. Let's change the face of men's health, together. https://bit.ly/4d2T1PB

Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men in Australia, with 1 in 5 men receiving a prostate cancer diagnosis in their lifetime. We're teaming up with SAiGENCI at The University of Adelaide to create a landmark database that will help researchers develop strategies for clinicians to personalise decisions about prostate cancer care. The new integrated database will harness the power of innovative technologies like AI and machine learning, to analyse existing clinical trial data obtained from thousands of men worldwide. “This cutting-edge technology represents a monumental leap in prostate cancer research. Allowing us to gather prostate cancer data from around the world and consolidate it in a single repository. By collecting and analysing biomarkers, we can unlock trends, enhance diagnostic pathways and improve the overall management and treatment of the disease. We are proud to see such revolutionary research being conducted here in Australia, and hope that it will play a role in minimising the global burden of prostate cancer in the future.” - Sarah Weller, Movember Global Director of Prostate Cancer.

With a couple marathons under her belt and countless conversations started about men’s health, Lauren’s all about taking every opportunity to encourage others to advocate for their health - “the ripple effects that come from a dollar or a conversation make such a difference in someone’s life down the road".
