Awareness for deprescribing when there is no longer a clinical need is happening. Running in Victoria, Australia since 2022. @WiserADTrial is a world first Randomised Controlled Trial of a digital support system to help with antidepressant deprescribing. @Amy_x_Coe

Aspirin has been found to prevent bowel cancer by up to 25%! As part of my PhD, I had the opportunity to implement national guidelines promoting the use of aspirin in general practice clinics in Victoria. Check out poster #28 #ISHCA23

Great to see the positive findings of this trial using a wrist device to reduce #tics! This offers hope for those with #tourettes who often cannot access treatments. Their struggles are captured here:

Thrilled to welcome ⁦@LilianGreenwood⁩ MP today to meet @mrcdigitalyouth⁩ researchers and our amazing Spouting Minds YPAG at Nottingham @InstituteMH ⁦@NIHR_MindTech⁩ ⁦@SelfHarmRes⁩ - discussing #digital tools to support youth #mentalhealth

I had five minutes of absolute calm and relaxation with Purrble, a purring, furry robot. That’s my lap it’s sitting on. I really didn’t want to give Purrble back 🥰 Creative research from @mrcdigitalyouth @NIHR_MindTech and just want I needed too!

@beffdizzle Hey. Sorry to hear that Bethan. Hope that supoort comes soon. If you ever want it I'm always happy to chat. The time difference may be of help for middle of night stuff too! 🤗

@Amy_x_Coe Congratulations @Amy_x_Coe. And some great feedback from the editors too. Well done!

The process evaluation from Opti-Med, the first double blind RCT of deprescribing, is in press. Deprescribing recommendations arising from an algorithm-based medication review results in an average reduction of 2 medicines per person doi.org/10.1016/j.arch…

Please support @tourettesaction #HelpUsBeHeard and write to your MP. @NIHR_MindTech will continue to work with @tourettesaction to change the lives of people with TS through our research

We are pleased to announce that the new series of #24hrsAE will air on 3rd January at 9pm. The @Channel4 series was filmed at the QMC and it is the first time it has been filmed outside of London!

Help us recruit to this important study! 👇#socialmedia #schools

I don't post many tweets and connections here have been great but...ya know... Mastodon seems pretty small but perhaps less septic. catkay@mastodon.au

Fantastic opportunity for young people interested in mental health research @EmergingMindsUK @NIHR_MindTech @KingsIoPPN @Mental_Elf @McPinFoundation @NottmBRC_MHTech @InstituteMH

General practice placements are key to encouraging more medical students to consider a career in general practice. Thanks Dr Ken Baddeley and Martin Read for sharing your reflections. medicine.unimelb.edu.au/engage/alumni/…

New Turing research out today shows that students & staff have significant concerns about the impact of relying on digital technologies for mental healthcare Report out today from @TuringPubPol by @chrisdburr & @roapowell #TuringInnovation #MentalHealth ow.ly/TxXJ50LrPs6

@AcademicChatter Thats as a neuroscientist I must be able to read minds....wth?!

What is the most annoying/frustrating/amusing thing people wrongly assume about your research area?

@jenheffa @NIHR_MindTech Thanks @jenheffa ...yep. all good thanks. Hope you are too! Would be good chat sometime soon. Hope Mind Tech has another great meeting.

Come and work with me and the amazing @CharlotteLHall2 on this great project with KCL and Southampton supporting parents on #adhd wait-list @kasiakostyrka @elleshead @UoNCareers jobs.nottingham.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx?r…
