From our 2022 #donor #research network symposium series: Watch @AmandaThijsen @lifebloodRnD talk about “Encouraging donor return following the experience of a vasovagal reaction.” Pls RT! youtu.be/TpSyKWSGWi4

Our longitudinal study on emotions and risk of vasovagal reaction in first-time whole-blood donors is online! #blooddonation #transfusion @barbaramasser @TanyaDavison50 @Anne_van_Dongen @williamslisaphd @lifebloodRnD onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/tr…

@RenaHirani @PLOSONE Congrats Rena!!

Scared but proud to announce that I have been accepted as an academic #editor for @PLOSONE. Got any great work in blood transfusion science please don't hesitate to consider submission to #PLOSONE #impactfactor 3.75

Great overview paper of strategies to use when implementing a change to practice sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

When #blood donors' donations are postponed, they're more likely to return if we give them clear messaging and support. New #clusterrandomised #trial led by Carley Gemelli from our team, with @AmandaThijsen @surenkarki @AABB onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/tr…

📢 JOB ALERT! Pls RT! Exciting opportunity for a biostatistician or epidemiologist to work with @DonorHealthBTRU and @NHSBT_RD. You will have access to internationally unique datasets to address questions of relevance to the needs of blood services. jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/34077

@DianvanderwalDr Haha love the Netherlands copy! Anything new you're going to be visiting/doing over there?

@barbaramasser @TanyaDavison50

Just a quick reminder to take our survey on translating and using research evidence in #transfusionmedicine. If you've already replied to the survey, thank you so much for your time and sharing! redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys/?s=L4F… @aabb @isbtco @lifebloodRnD @EUBloodAlliance @transfusionlib

📣📣ICYMI: Listen to @AmandaThijsen talk about developing a study to better understand fainting in donors and to create solutions acceptable to blood donors and blood services. tinyurl.com/ycxpkhtt @NHSBT_RD

Do you work in #transfusion medicine? We’d love to hear your thoughts on using research evidence in #blooddonation policy and practice. Please help by completing a short survey: redcap.sydney.edu.au/surveys/?s=L4F… Thank you!

@DianvanderwalDr @lifebloodRnD @lifebloodau Glad to have you around!

Register by May 9 for our FREE #DoRN Symposium Series! We have a great line up of speakers on substance of human origin donor research across the 3-days of our virtual series in May, June & July. Register here: research.psy.uq.edu.au/dorn/the-dorn-…

Our new research is out!

Can text messages save lives? In a large‐scale field experiment, we randomized donors such that half are sent a text message when their donation was used. Messages increased subsequent donations by 3.6% compared with donors who did not get the message doi.org/10.1111/trf.15…

What determines blood donor behaviour during the COVID19 pandemic? @barbaramasser @DrMelHyde "Self‐efficacy and approval from others, underpinned by coping appraisals and organizational trust, play a critical role in intentions to donate" open access📰doi.org/10.1111/trf.16…
