Dr Golnar Aref-Adib #speakout

Have you read Race&Gender Inequity paper @bmj_latest ? Are you surprised? I am not. For too long women have been subject to bias & discrimination. A call to action for all those in academia. Read about my experience @NIHRresearch bmj.com/content/381/bm… It's time to #SpeakOut

@AidaSeyedsalehi Merci!

@AidaSeyedsalehi Ha ha two joys! Which restaurant?

I have signed up to do further autism training in Sept with @rcpsych after completing this mandatory training. I would encourage everyone to do the same

Thank you to the Twitter family for your support. I truly appreciate it. I was planning on a digital holiday in August- so I am signing off Twitter/Whatsapp/ FB/Whatsapp. Nanu nanu (my seven followers + a range of lovely Coldplay fans). Wishing you a restful summer.

Judged for 10yrs when you worked 3yrs @NIHRresearch= FAIR Judged for 2 pregnancies @NIHRresearch=FAIR Judged for London based training @NIHRresearch=FAIR Employment solicitors say it’s gender & race discrimination= UNFAIR We don’t live in Barbie Land. Welcome to Real World

@dr_know I feel uncomfortable with all mh terms/ to describe behaviour- eg: manic/schizophrenic. I also name and encourage revision- of the phrase to commit s- and ask for people to think and be mindful of labelling it a sin against god or a crime

@thenitinsawhney I agree. It feels strangely violent. The other one was a beautiful bird encouraging dialogue and this is a stamp of oppression.

Oh jeez… I want my little bird back… 😢

@CraigNikolic Increasingly of the opinion that nobody wants to hear from activists…

@ZainKhanMed I think they could have encouraged - self-responsibility rather than writing like that to their colleagues @drsurgeonfish

@mbismark I would def work for you!

“We cannot ignore intersectionality - the added weight of inequity for women of colour” @DrPujaMehta1 tinyurl.com/Pujamehta

“And when you hear the truth…you can’t unhear it”@AmericaFerrera Women who are members of racial+ethnic minority groups have less representation than men of same race. Of 24 Boards, 37.5% no Asian women,50% no Black women,75% no Hispanic women. tinyurl.com/mpfpcyc5

Our population health manager recommended this training+ I recommended in team meeting. Pay it forward -recommend to colleagues+widely. Thank you @PaulaMc007 for fighting this fight- to ensure this never ever happens again. Cried my eyes out in the training +learnt so much ❤️

Why don't healthcare systems or patients use apps and other digital health tech as much as we hope? This new paper offer one of the most elegant figures to explain via an implementation science framework. Lots of targets for improvement we can all work on: jmir.org/2023//e48000/

“You are worth more than your body or your sexual appeal” @SineadOConnor rest in power I also would like to take a moment to think about how publicly she was shamed about her own mental health, her weight and her voice. I hope we have evolved beyond this and I fear we have not. Her documentary ‘Nothing compares’ is absolutely incredible- directed @Kath_Ferguson and it really stayed with me. You don’t need to be a fan or even to have been alive then to appreciate what a journey she lived. It’s also worth reading Sinead’s open letter to @MileyCyrus amp.theguardian.com/music/2013/oct…

@RoshanaMN @drsurgeonfish ❤️ team LH

Right who’s watching the GP with me this afternoon? No verstappen fans alllowed… jog on

@lucygoss @Elisabray this is worthy of a national audience!

I was nervous about how this would be perceived it but it has clearly resonated with thousands and gone far further than I ever imagined. How do we amplify these points beyond the twitter echo chamber and change the narrative of the mainstream press? lucygossage.com/my-reasons-for…

Wonderful celebrations in Selby this morning - huge congratulations @Mather_Keir who’ll be a brilliant MP & thank you everyone who voted Labour yesterday. Incredible result shows strength of support for change & fresh start @UKLabour can bring after 13yrs of Tory chaos & failure

When a child makes an analogy between an element in a story and something from their own life or in another story - eg the way a character 'helps' and someone else 'helping', this is the first step towards abstract thought. #PowerOfStories

@Nigel_Farage Or maybe it’s ‘decency mattering more than profits’? In which case, no wonder you’re struggling with the concept
