Are you living with long term ankle pain? UQ researchers would like to speak with you in an online interview! Eligibility? * Ongoing ankle pain during ambulatory activities last 3 months * + 35 years of age Interested? Please check our short survey t.ly/uaNO

Rewarding project to work on. Proud to have been involved. Strong leadership from @thorlenee. Great illustrations and animation from Josh Simmich.

@annescampbell And you too Anne. I hope you're well.

@LiamRobMac Pleased to see you're keeping fit in this lockdown business. Have a good Easter 🐇

Wow! Further support for #PhysicalTherapy in knee #osteoarthritis, with this RCT demonstrating benefit over i.a. glucocorticoid injection. Congrats to @danrhon. @OARSInews @ACRheum nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

Do you know the research that underpins Online Support Groups for MSK pain conditions? Learn about how OSG's are evaluated, who uses them and more in our upcoming systematic review. @paulwhodges @ProfDavidHunter @Bill_Vicenzino @KimBennell @jmirpub

@JenSetchell @KarimeMescouto @RebeccaEOlson @paulwhodges Well done Karime!

@johnwread @Bill_Vicenzino I agree. In our paper no causation implied. Physical and psychological remain inseparable thus temporal relationship is somewhat irrelevant. Interventions addressing any problem (MSK or other) should address both concomitantly.

@LiamRobMac @Bill_Vicenzino Given the extraordinary level of psychosocial problems in the general community, might this just be another statistical association that should not be used to imply causation? Similar to the extraordinary level of MRI degenerative tissue changes in the asymptomatic community?

@johnwread @Bill_Vicenzino Kinesiophobia was prevalent. And psych features associated to PFP-related disability. Not all psych features require psych intervention, but ALL need acknowledging. Pain has a profound psychological impact. Impossible to deliver a physical intervention without considering psych.

@Bill_Vicenzino @LiamRobMac Seems to say that psychological profiles were NOT significantly from controls. Similar to MRI showing asymptomatic abnormalities that do not require Rx, psychosocial problems in an asymptomatic MSK setting are also widespread and their significance should not be over interpreted.

@Brad_Neal_07 @Bill_Vicenzino @NatJCollins @paulwhodges @EFIC_org Thanks Brad. Hope you and your family are well.

@Bill_Vicenzino @LiamRobMac @NatJCollins @paulwhodges @EFIC_org Cracking piece of work this team. One of my favourite ever conference presentations to boot. One of my life goals is to make a set of slides to match the beauty of Liam’s !

Largest data set to date of psych factors and pain profiles in adults with PFP. Nociplastic changes and elevated psychological factors common findings. Thank you coauthors @NatJCollins, @paulwhodges & @Bill_Vicenzino and @EFIC_org.

Do you prescribe Hip exercises for those w Patellofemoral Pain? Are Hip Ex's superior to Foot orthoses? (n=109 Vs n=109). Does foot mobility affect the outcome? Does is influence your advice? My PhD work and RCT (n=218) explored this and more... bjsm.bmj.com/content/early/…

@annescampbell @kaymcrossley @Bill_Vicenzino @uqshrs @PeteLawrenson Thanks Anne. Hope you're well.

@LiamRobMac @kaymcrossley @Bill_Vicenzino @uqshrs @PeteLawrenson Well done Liam 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

All the best Liam and Peter 🎉🎈[Can't see the Insta photo, says link is broken]

@kaymcrossley @Bill_Vicenzino @uqshrs @PeteLawrenson Thanks @kaymcrossley. If I learned anything from graduation, it was the reason why, in the summer, people in Queensland don't wear kilts.

@Bill_Vicenzino @uqshrs Congrats @LiamRobMac on a great PhD and on winning "Best Dressed at a PhD Graduation"... well done to @Bill_Vicenzino for his mentoring, and more good wishes for @PeteLawrenson .. agree that wonderful things to come from these two

@PaulLArgent @NatJCollins @GLAD_Australia @MichelleD_Smith @Matt_Francis15 @UQHealth @UQ_News @ewa_roos @STSkou 30 second chair stand test.

GLA:D to have trained another group of physios in high value education & exercise treatment for knee & hip OA. Thanks to everyone for your enthusiasm & engagement! @GLAD_Australia @LiamRobMac @MichelleD_Smith @Matt_Francis15 @UQHealth @UQ_News @ewa_roos @STSkou

@benedsmith @MichaelRathleff @aausund Congratulations Michael. A well-deserved appointment in recognition of hard work and commitment.

@MichaelRathleff @aausund Whoop. Congratulations 👍

Excited to start my new role as full professor in musculoskeletal health at @aausund in a shared position with the Center for General Practice. Look forward creating synergy between the institutions, high quality research, and educating next-gen clinicians and researchers

@kaymcrossley @Bill_Vicenzino The biggest finding IMO was the small to moderate effects in all measures of pain and disability found with observation only. Research by virtue evoking improvements without intervention.

@Bill_Vicenzino couldn't make it - what was the message (slides were pretty in your message - but coudln't read anything) @LiamRobMac

@dr_earl_boehm Yeah, need to earn money for a flight home somehow😁

@LiamRobMac so glad you decided to stay in Milwaukee and tend bar!!!
