Keep an eye out for updates and findings!

Excited to have my first ever co-written book chapter in here. On eating, drinking & swallowing difficulties. Great to write it with @dianejsellers.bsky.social @drmariviviersslt.bsky.social & Ailish Hope people find it useful 👇🏼
Dr Susan McCool's new book is now ready for pre-order (coming out November 13)! Designed for students and #NQPs, it also provides valuable insights for experienced #SLT and #SLP. For further details visit the website: tinyurl.com/238ejx45
I don't know of any settings with sufficient neonatal therapies and follow up therapy services. I think I'd start with that.

I've made surprisingly good progress learning Stata, and even cracked a big coding problem all by myself. However, I'm now annoyed with it and wishing I'd just had the confidence to learn R like my stats supervisor told me I should.
The reason for my annoyance? Stata can't tell me IQR 😮
Oooh, have never tried that!
Pretty sure copha is actually poisonous but an essential ingredient nonetheless 😂
You're right. I need to move back home!

How should you respond to a regime that has disregard for health and wellbeing, ignores the central role of inequalities in poor health outcomes, and believes science and scholarship to be enemies of progress?

It's very much a real thing - imagine my horror when my British children and their friends rejected it when I served it at birthday parties! I've been trying to get hold of copha so I can make then chocolate crackles but seems to be impossible.

Last week I updated my mega-post "What's wrong with the Cass Review?" with new links to analysis and evidence.

I have no illusions about the current political landscape. It will likely take years to undo Cass' act of sabotage. But I am in this fight for the long haul and hope you are too.

This year the UK Govt say they will publish an 'ambitious' cross-government child poverty strategy

Any respectable child poverty strategy must include action on social security including to abolish the two-child limit and introduce a protected minimum amount of support to UC 5/5

It goes after "social transition" and threatens arrests.
