Brave new world? "#Parkinsons & dementia with Lewy bodies are currently defined by their clinical features", but now researchers propose a biological definition of neuronal α-synuclein disease, pushing us "towards an integrated staging system for research" sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Big day in #Parkinsons research today as scientists propose using biological tests to help identify and ‘stage’ the condition 👇

In health & care, we often focus on a narrow concept of improving "staff experience", when we could be building a much deeper & more profound basis of human connection at work: a sense of belonging. Belonging is when an employee, regardless of their background or role, knows that their voice matters, that their unique experiences enrich the team & that they're not just seen, but understood. Organisations that build a sense of belonging have higher levels of engagement, retention & performance: linkedin.com/pulse/belongin… By @hacking_hr
