Dr Madeleine Connolly

The first of my PhD papers is officially published! 🥳 Thank you to my wonderful supervisors and co-authors: @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe & Stephen Bowden. And a huge thank you to @SportsMedicineJ for supporting our work! rdcu.be/c6gYb

@Anitabamorim @EliteaKademy @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe Likewise, Anita!! 🤩

@madeleinelco @EliteaKademy @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe Congratulations, Madeleine! It was a pleasure working with you!

My favourite paper I wrote during my PhD is out! We looked at quantitative interactions between chronic pain x mental health x exercise. 🏃‍♀️🧠 Amazing to collaborate with @Anitabamorim & @EliteaKademy + supervisors @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe & prof Bowden sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@PaulaGhete @Anitabamorim @EliteaKademy @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe Thank you! We don’t address that in our study, which is more about motivation for exercise, but there is a lot of previous research out there that shows the efficacy of exercise for treatment of pain symptoms - both different types of exercise and different pain conditions too!

@madeleinelco @Anitabamorim @EliteaKademy @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe Oh, this seems interesting! I'm saving it now. I don't know if you address this in the study, but I wonder if regular exercises also reduces pain or other physical symptoms. That is what I've noticed in myself.

@plinhdang @Anitabamorim @EliteaKademy @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe Thank you Linh!! Exercise will always be the best multi faceted treatment in my eyes! 🏃‍♀️😍

@madeleinelco @Anitabamorim @EliteaKademy @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe Congratulations Madi! Certainly important findings to improve care for individuals with chronic pain

New blog post up for the food and mood centre by yours truly! Such a great opportunity to communicate my PhD findings in a more palatable way! 🏃‍♀️

Graduated today and honored to have had my supervisor by my side. Thank you @ntvandam - none of this would be possible without you!

Exciting findings from @DrAdrienneOneil and team on the antidepressant effects of telehealth lifestyle interventions for adults with high psychological distress 🙌 #smhr2023

@Anna_Ross_ Yes!! 🙌 much needed!!

@madeleinelco Woooo excited to catch up 😄

Very excited to be at #smhr2023 in Perth this week to present some of my PhD work from @Psychunimelb on Friday, and honored to have joined a panel yesterday for MAGNET ASM to talk about adverse events in behavioral interventions with @foodmoodcentre

I hit submit! (Almost two months ago now, but better late than never to post the picture on Twitter) A big thank you to my PhD supervisors, @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe & Stephen Bowden @Psychunimelb for helping me with my ultimate passion project on mental health & exercise! 🥳

@ArgonautZhou Super interesting as intrusions are really common IRL in illnesses where fatigue is high and “brain fog” is a symptom - Long Covid being a perfect example. Would be interesting to see how models might change in recovery protocols 👀

Our modelling suggests that both happen, so previous work which didn't consider intrusions overestimated how much people guess Also, when people mix things up, it tends to be with items presented closer together in space 👽and time ⌛️ See link for more detail👨‍🍳

Resurrecting my twitter to peddle a new paper w/ @AdamOsth & Philip Smith: Sometimes people make memory errors because they "guess", while other times they mix up what they're trying to remember (intrusions)- very different ways of being wrong! (cont.) authors.elsevier.com/a/1ggdh2HxoZH4f

@amyct_ Thank you! Yes all fine actually!!

@amyct_ I’ve got 88 days left, you’re doing fine!

This paper details the scale I created to quantify mental health-related barriers and benefits to exercise. My hope is that discussion of these factors will help more people to exercise more often, even in the face of any mental health difficulties which may impede them 🏃🧠📏

The first of my PhD papers is officially published! 🥳 Thank you to my wonderful supervisors and co-authors: @ntvandam @MichaelaPascoe & Stephen Bowden. And a huge thank you to @SportsMedicineJ for supporting our work! rdcu.be/c6gYb

Very excited to speak at this colloquium and show off some of my work! Follow the link to register 🎀

@jc1100011 Feel good pet

Can’t even go for a walk down the street without being approached by a predatory journal these days…

I’m genuinely shaken by this. This news is absolutely awful to not only the entire current community of us with chronic illness, but my heart goes out to those who will become chronically ill with post viral syndrome due to this decision. Is health safety too much to expect now?

@EmmaAusten20 @unimelbMSPGH @Laura_M_Hart @Amy_J_Morgan @MHFA_Australia Congrats Emma! This is awesome!! 👏

So excited to be joining the Centre for Mental Health @unimelbMSPGH next week as a Research Fellow(!) 😱 I'll be working with @Laura_M_Hart, @Amy_J_Morgan & Prof Tony Jorm to develop a measure of child mental health literacy to examine the impact of @MHFA_Australia programs🎉

Swedish researchers just published the first #POTS symptom score, based on the 12 most common symptoms reported by 1000s of patients in the Big POTS Study, a collaboration between Dysautonomia International, Vanderbilt & Univ of Calgary. This is progress! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
