Delighted that my chapter on making psychology accessible to students in medical education has been published! Huge thanks to editor @RachaelEllen_ for making the process so much easier 😊 @BeSSTUK #PsychologyinMedEd #BSS

A copy of @EvaLuksaite's 'State Intimacies: Sterilization, Care and Reproductive Chronicity in Rural North India' has reached our Executive Dean Prof Christian Mallen's desk. You can get your copy of this fantastic book here: berghahnbooks.com/title/FiksState

@RachaelEllen_ @UHNM_NHS Glad that you were well looked after - get well soon Sophia

@EvaLuksaite @KeeleMedSchool @berghahnbooks Congratulations Eva 🎊

@RachaelEllen_ Thanks so much! This has saved me a job

@ShellyKayA These plus The Burning Girls are my recent reads and I recommend them all! Depending what you’re into I think my top 3 would have to be: The Drift, The housemaid, and Project Hail Mary

Book 8 of 2024 finished in 3 days, think that’s a record! Amazing read, highly recommend if you love a psychological thriller (also,currently £2.50 on Amazon for paperback or £1.99 Kindle)

@JakeMcCx @KeeleCFR Wow, fantastic achievement - both the jump and the fundraising!!

It’s safe to say Friday was absolutely incredible and we beat our target of £1,000 for @KeeleCFR! Definitely a birthday to remember! 🪂

@RachaelEllen_ @KeeleMedSchool Fab news and so well-deserved 🎉 can't wait to hear the plans 😀

Really pleased to share that I have been appointed as Deputy Director of Scholarship for the @KeeleMedSchool first ever Scholarship team. We’ve got some big plans and it’s so exciting

📢Registration for the Midlands Racial Equality in Medicine @MREMnetwork conference on 2 March @KeeleUniversity is now open 🎉 Click the link for further details & to register tickettailor.com/events/mremnet…

We are looking forward to hosting the @MREMnetwork Midlands Racial Equality in Medicine annual conference on 2nd March! Put the date in your diary🗓️ and watch out for the abstract call next week!

@RachaelEllen_ Yes - although I won't smell as nice as you!!🪻

@ShellyKayA Haha we shall be so toasty!

@ShellyKayA I’ve got the solution for all our open plan office 🥶 issues, I’ve been walking round with my lavender warmer tucked into my jumper 😂

@DrSWhiteman @KeeleMedSchool I really enjoyed the discussions too!

Really enjoyed facilitating a workshop on unconscious bias & body shape/size with @ShellyKayA at the Keele medical school annual scholarship conference. Fabulous discussion with some interesting take home messages @KeeleMedSchool

@RachaelEllen_ @DrSWhiteman @KeeleMedSchool Sorry for the delay, I'm a bit behind on social media! I've shared the presentation - feel free to come & observe the teaching session next year!

@DrSWhiteman @ShellyKayA @KeeleMedSchool Wish I could have attended! Do you mind sharing any of the resources, or point me in the direction of what to read?

@RachaelEllen_ Oh you've made me tear up!!! 🥹 but your support is invaluable too - that IS what teamwork is all about 😊 I hope you have a relaxing and fun-filled break 💛

As I reflect on this last year I want to shoutout to everybody who has supported me but a particular mention must go to @ShellyKayA without whose constant support I wouldn’t be where I am today. Academia is not a competition, support each other for the benefit of everybody 💛

@RachaelEllen_ Not just #TeamAnatomy 😂 some of #TeamBSS have received a copy too 🤭

Somebody has put these on the desks of everybody in Team Anatomy, I have absolutely no idea who

@RachaelEllen_ Love it - look forward to the pictures!!!

Bought Christmas family pyjamas today (yes I am absolutely that person), and I think October has to be my record for earliest purchase
