@JodieDakic @HelenaFrawley @jeanhaysmith @ProfJillCook @KuanYin_Lin Well done @JodieDakic !

Just in time for Women’s Health Week - thrilled to have submitted my PhD on Pelvic Floor Disorders in Exercising Women. So very grateful to have had the most wonderful supervisory team @HelenaFrawley @jeanhaysmith @ProfJillCook @KuanYin_Lin

My six year old son just ask if there are boy Matildas?! ⚽️ Melt! Go Tillys! 🇦🇺

@AlboMP @EmmanuelMacron @TheMatildas @equipedefranceF How about you just fund womens sport in Australia 🇦🇺 equally???

How about a bet @EmmanuelMacron? If @TheMatildas win tonight, you’ll support Australia in the semi-finals. If the @equipedefranceF win, I’ll support France. Deal? #GoMatildas

Describe the PhD journey in 3 words or less.

@Melissa_Lem This is absolutely disgraceful and unacceptable in 2022 @Forests_MDPI @ChristosGallis

@evpappas 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Sexism is not acceptable... eloquent and insightful answers by two intelligent and knowledgeable leaders

@JulianeSchikora @PhDVoice Easy to understand!

Evidence from multiple countries now demonstrates the effectiveness of Physiotherapists placed in emergency rooms... legislation needs to be updated to allow this to become standard practice

@nrlphysio maybe of interest? 😉

AFL Players with Pec Major tears returned to play 11 weeks post injury (avg). New research just published. @surgicalgreghoy @DrSarahWarby doi.org/10.1177/232596…

So…you can’t see physio or SEM on the weekend for an acute sports injury without GP referrals but GPs aren’t working on the weekend, and if you negotiate this hurdle you pay most of the visit cost out of pocket because of the poor rebates.

Thirdly, Medicare rebates for physios have always been poor and for chronic conditions only. SEM registrar rebates have literally been frozen for 30 years and Medicare rebates for SEM specialists are currently lower than they were 20 years ago. smh.com.au/sport/australi…

Secondly, making most GPs rely on bulk-billing and removing weekend loading for rebates (when GP practice is only borderline viable on weekdays) means that it is not economic for most GPs to even open on the weekend.

Firstly, the rule that physios and SEM physicians must have a GP referral to these practitioners in order to be seen under Medicare. So you can’t see physio or SEM on a weekend for an acute injury under Medicare without seeing a GP first.

How does Medicare specifically stop acute musculoskeletal conditions like sports injuries from being treated acutely by the actual experts, such as sports physiotherapists and Sport & Exercise Medicine (SEM) physicians? @ACSEP_ @president_apa

@evpappas Poor kids waiting at the top @evpappas waiting to use the slide 🤔🤣🤦🏼‍♀️

I hereby introduce the reverse playground slide exercise for quadriceps strengthening with progression options... still at prototype stage but causing a nice thigh burn. Research validation to follow

PhD-folk: how do you convey "I did a PhD" to folks who have no idea what it entails to do a PhD? Responses in meme, emoji or GIF form only 🙃

So excited to finally get this in the mail today in Oz! Congratulations @JeremyLewisPT @RodWhiteley @KarimKhan_IMHA @clare_ardern and all of the other amazing contributors for creating such a fantastic resource
