Really enjoyed yesterday's catch-up meeting with our patient advisory group for @the-epic-study.bsky.social. Great for some of our new members to meet existing ones and some brilliant questions and suggestions on the pilot work we have been doing so far and what our plans are going forward.

Huge thanks to @amyatkinson.bsky.social for visiting @notts-psych.bsky.social yesterday to give a brilliant talk on her research into whether, and how, children and individuals with ADHD prioritise information in working memory!
