The School of Therapeutic Sciences in the Faculty of Health Sciences will host the annual Albertina Sisuslu Memorial Lecture.

The lecture honours the life and work of Albertina Sisulu - a nurse, humanitarian, activist, and woman of integrity and courage who epitomises the highest ideals of nursing and the health professions.

This year’s lecture will be delivered by Dr Mary Lou Galantino, Distinguished Professor at Stockton University, New Jersey, and Adjunct Scholar and Associate Professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health at the University of Pennsylvania. As a co-survivor, researcher, clinician, and educator in cancer rehabilitation, she will share her point of view from these various vantage points.
