The Dance Clan artist development program
is designed to cultivate the next generation of emerging Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander Creatives. Initiated in 1998, it is a program of three new
works designed to offer an opportunity for emerging artists to develop their
creative practice through the creation of an original work. The program aims
promote Indigenous storytellers and future cultural leaders, to further career
opportunities. This year’s Dance Clan choreographers are Glory Tuohy-Daniell,
Ryan Pearson and Sani Townson. Glory, Ryan and Sani are all gifted artists
endowed with a vision and passion for Indigenous storytelling.

“A study of 15 women found that sweat
on patients’ fingers contains proteins that allow scientists to detect breast
cancer with 98 per cent accuracy. The radical technique, which can also gauge
the severity of the disease, simply requires a patient to smear their
fingertips onto a sample plate.
Professor Francese and her team from
Sheffield Hallam University and the University of Sheffield believe that
eventually – if the results are confirmed in larger trials – the process could
replace mammograms.”
The study was published in the journal
Scientific Reports.
