A great conference- thanks to the organisers, great keynote speakers and wonderful to meet so many talented early career researchers passionate about generating evidence to transform primary healthcare. The workshop on research storytelling and messaging was outstanding!

‘The Role of Doctors is Changing Forever’- a New Yorker article today is an insightful read about what happens when there are so many sources of medical information now that there is credibility equipoise between AI / the MAHA influencers & the Dr in front of you…

Evidence-based medicine is only as good as the evidence it is derived from. If research representation does not truly reflect the diversity of the general population, medicines &other healthcare interventions may not work for everyone.’ Time to revisit Sackett’s framework for reflective teamwork

Sad screenshot share - every time we look up a reference now on NIH we see a statement which states that the NIH is no longer able to guarantee up-to-date evidence sources #EvidenceBiasedMedicine #ResearchIntegrity @bjgp.bsky.social @bjgpopen.bsky.social @nihrspcr.bsky.social

An excellent article - ‘lifestyle’ is an unhelpful , over-simplified practitioner-orientated and potentially pejorative term which ignores intersectionality of the causes of the causes of ill-health. So Ryan’s concept of ‘victim-blaming’ as a thought for the day… ppa.csp.org.uk/content/chro...

Thank you @kityates.bskysocial Beautifully explained. The ubiquitous high risk HPV cares not about gender when it transforms healthy cells to cancer cells. I had a nail injury 50 yrs ago which created a fault line in my nail matrix , allowing ‘high risk’ HPV to sneak in & cause a ca-in-situ

Think about your latest research project. Where are you on the ladder?’ Where would would you like to be on your next study?’ For those who are interested, it’s a ‘traffic light’ ladder to start a reflective conversation between researchers, patients , communities & frontline practioners.
