A tongue in cheek tweet by a New Zealand oncologist after Donald Trump's presidential win, could entice sought after cancer specialists to Aotearoa. On the night of the United States election Professor of Cancer Chris Jackson fired off a tweet, it read; 'Hello US oncologists - anyone interested in moving to NZ, we're recruiting. Fixed term positions of 4 years are available. Permanent posts also. Jobs available from Jan 6. DM for more details.' Oncologist Chris Jackson spoke to Lisa Owen.
