I was honoured to be invited to speak at Stanford School of Medicine this morning about my research on LGBTQI+ health.

It was a real privilege to share space with such an inspiring community of researchers and clinicians committed to advancing queer health.

A meaningful way to spend my birthday!

It’s so good to see a total of four panels focussed on sexual and gender minority health at #SigmaCongress2025

Great to connect with nursing scientists making a difference to LGBTQ+ health equity

Dr John Gilmore @gilmorejnurse.bsky.social · Jul 18

Chaired a great session this morning on workplace violence and nursing incivility - lots of reflections whether we’re just seeing a societal shift play out in our workplaces and profession.

Regardless of the cause these are issues nursing urgently needs to deal with

Dr John Gilmore @gilmorejnurse.bsky.social · Jul 17

Great to present findings from our scoping review on LGBTQ+ health research in Ireland and talk a little bit about next steps in making healthcare more equitable for LGBTQ+ people in Ireland!
