Podiatry student Gordon Donaldson has had a busy few months after completing a Carnegie Trust Vocation Scholarship before appearing at the Royal College of Podiatry’s Annual Conference in Harrogate last month 🦶 Hear all about his research ➡ gcu.ac.uk/currentstudent…

@NIHRinvolvement Involving patients and the public saves money - more relevant research, less duplication, better information, more targeted recruitment, less waste.

@GCUPodiatry Gordon Donaldson delivering a short paper @RoyColPod national Conference. Start of a research journey on patient conversations without fear based messaging and therefore without the word ‘remission’ . Loved it. @RuthBarn @Gordon_Hendry

This trial will involve over 600 people from all across the UK, and we want as much representation from people in Scotland as possible. The trial in Scotland is being led by investigators in @nhsggcpodiatry and @NHSLanPodiatry, supported by researchers at @GCUReach 2/5

I really don't like the term "mapping" in health research proposals.

It was at that point he realized that the incentives of hospitals are not aligned with healing: "The way things are set up is that the hospital needs to make money; they need to make money. They need to grow economically. The problem there is that if you figure out a way to help patients heal and that in that way doesn't include a pill or surgery well then the hospital and the doctor are in big trouble. Because if you figure out a way to help people heal and you can't charge them for it well then you've just worked yourself out of a job"

📢We are conducting a research study to understand the experiences of people with #diabetes who have been given insoles. If you think you'd like to take part in a short focus group, please contact Niloo by email niloofar.sedighi@gcu.ac.uk or scan the QR code to enrol. @RuthBarn

How are messages around "active ulceration" portrayed in health leaflets and by podiatrists/diabetologists? Important research that may be of interest to people who have diabetes and who have or have had a foot ulcer/wound @DiabetesScot @footindiabetes @RoyColPod @MyDiabetesMyWay

@MSKhealthGCU @glasgowlife @SouthLanCouncil @PureGym @PGMotherwell @PureGym_PAISLEY @parkrunUK @PathsforAll @CyclingScotland @tennisscotland @BowlsScotland @threadreaderapp please unroll

📢Do you have diabetes and have you ever had a foot ulcer? We are studying how diabetes-related foot problems are communicated by health professionals to patients. If you're interested in participating in a short interview, please ping Gordon an email!

Hey managers: to keep your people, let them work from home 2 days a week. Landmark experiment (1600+ ppl, 2yrs): random assignment to hybrid work -Increased satisfaction -Reduced quitting by 33% (especially for women & long commuters) -No costs for performance or promotion rates

💷This work, together with Aimie's other PhD publication (open access: shorturl.at/lmX4p) informed our recently successful bid for a Carnegie Research Incentive Grant, led by @gcudiane, to evaluate Achilles tendon loading safety in PsA.

⚠️Our new study finds comparable "severity" scores (VISA-A) for Achilles enthesitis in PsA and Achilles tendon rupture. Slick work from @NHSaaa Specialist Podiatrist Dr @aimie_patience, available open access: shorturl.at/MRRUi @ClydeCloggie @StefanSiebert1 @Gordon_Hendry
