The use of prostate MRI in testing for prostate cancer is increasing exponentially as evidence continues to mount for its increased accuracy over the old standard of an invasive random prostate biopsy. However, expertise among radiologists and urologists for reading prostate MRI accurately is in short supply.
MRI Pro uniquely solves for this problem by providing users with 300 of the highest quality full prostate MRI cases, each one verified by gold standard tissue pathology with instant user feedback for accelerated learning.
MRI Pro was created by Melbourne urologist A/Prof Jeremy Grummet and radiology trainee Dr Rowan Miller, who have collected a team of global experts in prostate MRI as Clinical Advisors to MRI Pro.
In addition to being a highly relevant clinical educational resource, MRI also has CME/CPD approval, and has been designed to be applicable as an accreditation tool.

The economic, social and environmental challenges Australia and the world currently face - from discrimination to climate change to unemployment - are diverse, complex and pressing.
The Foundation for Young Australians (FYA) believes in young people’s capacity to respond to these challenges; to create a future in which they can live with dignity and pursue their dreams and ambitions.It is through value-adding innovation, the development of social impact leaders and the fostering of a supportive ecosystem with active mentorship that this can be achieved.
With a focus on ingenuity, entrepreneurship and sustainable solutions, the mentor-led program develops the competencies, networks and environment requisite to being a successful young social impact leader. I'm truly honoured to meet and mentor so many of the young and passionate change-makers who come through this program. The learning always goes both ways.
The Participants
Young Social Pioneers is comprised of 60 16-29 year olds, each of whom are leading an initiative that has the potential to address a pertinent social, environmental or economic challenge, either through advocacy, community organising or business.
Selected participants act out of a genuine desire to make a positive difference and, through demonstrated activity and prior experience, have shown they have the dedication, capability and affinity to lead change.
Hundreds of young social impact leaders aged 16- 29 have partaken in the program, with 60 inspirational young individuals selected to go through the program each year. YSP culminates in board room and live pitches which see seven participants each receive $10,000 in funding. -

The Awards are backed by the Victorian State Government and REAGroup, and were created in 2015 to inspire tech-based organisations to implement long-lasting change around diversity. In its third year, the #TechDiversity Awards is now fulfilling its ambition as the key Australian platform to showcase diversity and inclusion within the tech sector.
#TechDiversity supports the increased participation of under-represented groups within the digital economy through conversation, collaboration and action. These under-represented groups embrace women, people with a disability, people who recognise themselves as LGBTQI, Indigenous Australians and Torres Strait Islanders, people of colour, older people, and those who may face discrimination around their religious beliefs.
The goal is for #TechDiversity leaders to inspire and educate – to build inclusion and momentum for the future. -
