Congratulations to PhD candidate and respiratory physician Dr Senthuran Shivakumar on his first TRACKER publication, and to the TRACKER team on this achievement - now published in Translational Lung Cancer Research.

From Melbourne to Barcelona, TRACKER continues to make its mark on the global stage. At WCLC 2025, our team of clinician researchers shared new insights, celebrated emerging talent, and strengthened collaborations that bring us closer to better treatments and brighter futures for people with lung cancer.

At the TOGA 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting in Brisbane, Dr Shivakumar took to the stage to share early insights from his PhD research - a fascinating exploration of how the lung microbiome might influence the risk of CIP in lung cancer patients.
