Had an incredible time presenting at INSAR 2026. Not only my first time at the conference, but my first time in @Prague as well. Lots of engaging conversations, and of course lots of great food and sites to see! A big thanks to @ARC_Cambridge for supporting my attendance!

I'm so appreciative to everyone @OxPsychiatry for supporting and highlighting my recent paper! You can read an interview with me and my co-authors here: psych.ox.ac.uk/news/waves-of-… And you can read the full open-access paper here: novaojs.newcastle.edu.au/ceehe/index.ph…

I welcome any evidence that suggests I should be taking more naps!

I'm pleased to share our new paper in ACESS introducing diffractive collaborative enquiry as a means for addressing practical challenges in university research: novaojs.newcastle.edu.au/ceehe/index.ph… Thanks to my co-authors @UniofOxford for making this an engaging and fruitful collaboration!

Had a fantastically busy time during the @OxPsychiatry Departmental Away Day this year. Listened to a talk by @UniofOxford's Vice Chancellor, co-facilitated a networking event, shared a student's poster, won an award, and toured the Radcliffe Camera—all in one day!
