This week on Womanity-Women in Unity, Dr. Amaleya Goneos-Malka talks to medical oncologist Professor Georgia Demetriou, who is a senior consultant in the division of medical oncology at the University of the Witwatersrand and Charlotte Maxeke Hospital. Prof. Demetriou walks us through the inner workings of life as an oncologist and career pathways for women in medicine. We note that the scope of options for women has widened considerably. Currently, women represent approximately half of all working oncologists, however, only occupy an estimated 20% of leadership posts. Prof. Demetriou unpacks some of the risk factors and interventions associated with the three most common cancers affecting women: breast, cervical and colorectal. Some risks are genetic, others can be lessened, for example, by controlling diet (reducing saturated fat and refined sugar consumption), increasing exercise and vaccinating where possible. She emphasises the importance of regular screening to rule out or detect early signs of disease, remarking that under Covid-19 conditions many people have neglected annual check-ups. Prevention is always preferred to cure. We end the conversation noting that in today’s world women can be anything they want to be and strive for excellence. Tune in for more…

In this episode, I host Georgia Demetriou, a Philosophy postgraduate student at the University of Durham. We have a conversation on Jean-Paul Sartre’s work, define the terms being-for-itself, being-in-itself, and being-for-others, and discuss how Sartre views the self and the self’s relation to the world and other people. In addition, we see how his relationship with Simone de Beauvoir influenced his work and reflected his perspective on life. Lastly, we focus on how Sartre’s theories can be applied in the modern world, specifically in regard to young people and social media.Twitter: twitter.com/PremisePodcastFacebook: facebook.com/PremisePodcastSoundcloud: @PremisePodcastThe podcast is also available on Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, CastBox, Stitcher, and Spotify.Email: premisepodcast@gmail.comPlease consider supporting Premise Podcast on Patreon to help bring philosophy to the public and also enjoy all the benefits of becoming a patron for Premise Podcast.Patreon: www.patreon.com/PremisePodcast
