A trial led by @amy_ahern, authored by @Julia_Namanka, @penny_breeze et al, found behav. weight management + dietary counselling in type 2 #diabetes didn’t improve HbA1c but may help people lose weight and be cost-effective compared with standard care tinyurl.com/48kkyzrc 🔓

Great to hear @CaraRuggiero discussing her “why” and the importance of finding your people in research. We’re very glad we found Cara/she found us and brought her passion and skills to our team. Excited about her developing new ideas in food insecurity and infant feeding.

@SanjeePerera1 So sorry for your loss Sanjee. Sending love and strength x x x

It is with deep sadness I share that my mom Sunitha Perera, passed away last night.
Blessed are those who have died in the Lord;
let them rest from their labours
for their good deeds go with them.
Eternal rest grant unto him/her, O Lord.
± And let perpetual light shine upon her.
Dr. Sanjee Perera@SanjeePerera1
Praying friends, my mom has been rushed to the ICU, please keep her and my brother in your prayers.

@ClareHLlewellyn 😂 me neither. I have a team full of brilliant collaborative women who are a joy to work with, but they are all far too interesting for “polite” to be a defining feature.
I still hold that “nicely turned out” is the worst reference I got for a PhD candidate 🤢
English
@amy_ahern Although I’m pretty sure neither of those adjectives have ever appeared in a reference about me 😂😂😂

It was great to catch up with many of my former (and recently joined!) @MRC_Epid colleagues last night. I feel like you always remain part of the 'family' you did your PhD in

The Prevention team were feeling festive last night, celebrating Simon’s beautiful refurbished home and @laura_kudlek’s thesis submission. 🤩

@amy_ahern Really, I think this is evidence that PhD supervisors learn from their students as well as their students learning from them 😉
I daren't ask what you picked up from me though!

Congratulations to @laura_kudlek for submitting her PhD thesis and having her second PhD paper published last week 🤩 🥳 It has been an absolute pleasure to mentor this rising star in the psychology of eating behaviour and obesity and I have learnt so much working with her 🤩
Laura Kudlek@laura_kudlek
🔔 Excited to share this publication 🔔 We found that behavioural weight management interventions improve several eating behaviour traits like restraint 📊 We found no evidence of an impact on emotional eating - highlighting directions for future work 🙌

New paper from our new Programme Manager @MarieSpreckley on advancing health and fostering community involvement in medical research through the Genes & Health study. Excited to apply her learnings to our work on SWiM and improve participation and engagement of underserved groups
