Today the article that I co-authored with a wonderful group of women has finally been published! It takes a global approach towards racial diversity in paediatric medicine and provides action points that people can utilise. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jp… @RCPCHtweets @TheBMA

@FawazArshad Sounds like it was super tough this year. I’ve always thought you were awesome and I’m sure the PICM Gods will realise this too next year. Enjoy your holiday!

Didn't get PICM grid this year but am feeling hopeful for next. Nerves got to me because it meant so much. Helps being in sunny Cape Verde with the wife, to take your mind off things

@Hermesparcels I’ve lost an extremely expensive Christmas via your services and am unable to speak to a real person about it as your entire customer service team is automated. I would appreciate being contacted by an actual employee of Hermes in order to address this issue.

@RCPCHtweets Excellent news! @DFTBSkinDeep has long been advocating for this change of nomenclature and we have a great selection of dermal melanocytosis pictures on our website dftbskindeep.com/diagnoses-gall…

RCPCH@RCPCHtweets·28 Haz

The term Mongolian Blue Spots is no longer considered appropriate. In conjunction with guidance from the British Association of Dermatology the preferred nomenclature should be Congenital Dermal Melanocytosis. Our literature will be updated to reflect this change in terminology.

@NTGovHealth can you please confirm that returning a rental car to the airport is not one of the reasons to leave your home. Bargain car rental at Darwin airport are pressuring me to do so and don’t like the “excuse” that we’re in lockdown… #covidnt #COVID19Aus #lockdownnt

There’s often a lot of rhetoric about respecting and supporting Australia’s traditional landowners. However these communities need our tangible support of their charities, businesses and vulnerable people. creativespirits.info/aboriginalcult… chuffed.org/project/get-em…

Brilliant idea from the eSwapp team! Check out the link below for more info. 😁 eSwapp is an online place to find and connect with NHS colleagues who have a special talent for a skill you’d love to learn about. In return, you’ll share a skill you have. eswapp.com/nhs/?grsf=yh4o…

@DFTBubbles @LupusOrg @LupusResearch @LUPUSUK @HibbsLupusTrust @LupusInitiative Skin Deep desperately needs more diverse pictures of people with lupus so that Med Ed can be improved and hopefully lead to earlier diagnosis and management. Please email organisations@dftbskindeep.com to get in touch. 🙂

@DFTBSkinDeep @DFTBubbles @HealthySkin4All @rcpch_trainees @_BDNG @vitiligosociety @VitiligoRisk @VitiligoUK we’d love to get more images of children with vitiligo in our image bank as it’s such a misunderstood and stigmatised condition. If you can help, please get in touch by emailing organisations@dftbskindeep.com 😁

Vitiligo is most common cause of acquired depigmentation. The image shows patchy loss of skin colour with sharp margins bilaterally on arms. From tomorrow, you'll be able to find us at @DFTBubbles !👍 Collaborate with us! hello@dftbskindeep.com #diversity #skindeep #DFTB #FOAMed

Activism and engagement looks different for different people. This essay is an important read regarding the realities of life in Myanmar at present and the ways in poetry can be a mighty form of protest. worldliteraturetoday.org/blog/essay/ill…

The astounding @WeAreThePSC had a chat with me about @DFTBSkinDeep and the health inequalities faced by individuals from ethnically minoritised backgrounds. Have a listen. Hopefully it will inspire you to engage with, and support, more diverse resources open.spotify.com/episode/35PKg3…
