Growing evidence highlights significant maternal health disparities in the UK.

How do we achieve greater involvement of women from minority groups in health research?

This is what we need… I hope Labour are watching & start following the lead of the Green Party and not Reform.

Reform win when they can spread unrest, this is made easier when the majority of the country is disenchanted & angry at their situation. We need to improve conditions for everyone.

This…
If Farage wins the next election, it will be down to one person. His name is Keir Starmer.
This thread explains why.
1. Destroying faith in democracy. The UK decisively voted out the Tories, only for Starmer to give us a Continuity Tory government, shamefully beholden to economic power.

Was recently pointed to this powerful website about brilliant community projects that didn't make it, blocked one way or another by "officialdom".

We have to stop electing the wrong people and hoping they will do the right thing

Expertise boils down to effective mental representations.

How well can you internalize, organize, and recall vast amounts of information instantly?

How are you actively improving your mental models?

No, the ECHR isn't the EU.
No, it's not a "criminal's charter."
No, it's not optional.
Yes, I skipped out on Below Deck Down Under to write an explainer.

Today I sent a couple of work emails one where I have questioned a decision and another where set some objectively reasonable boundaries…. Now I can’t sleep second guessing myself, worrying a bit about the outcome & pretty convinced going to get into trouble. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Just started in your career in anaesthesia?

Have this nagging worry about all the things you need to get done in stage 1?

Worry no longer. Here is the first episode of our “Stages” series where we will be discussing how to thrive during stage 1!
Coffee and a Gas episode 24: Stages - Stage one
Starting anaesthetics training can feel exciting, daunting, and everything in between. In this episode, we sit down with a resident doctor who has just completed Stage 1 to share what it’s really like...

The @universalairway.org guidelines for preventing unrecognised oesophageal intubation are supported by @safeairwaysociety.org, @anzca.bsky.social & @dasairway.bsky.social

VL should be used routinely whenever feasible.

Clinical signs should not be used to exclude oesophageal intubation.
