Day 1 of #Screening2025 closes with reflections from community & patient perspectives, including GP @rosemarywyber.bsky.social highlighting the importance of shared decision making with Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander communities & holistic discussions over time. @publichealthaus.bsky.social

Fortunate to be here at the #Screening2025 conference! A great theme focusing on maximising benefits and minimising harms.

I’m looking forward to presenting tomorrow in the psychosocial session at 11am!

I’ll be speaking about my work on supporting older women’s breast cancer screening decisions.

Welcome to #Screening2025! We’re excited for a jam-packed two days in Sydney/Gadigal land, exploring opportunities for disease screening programs and looking at the latest evidence.

#Screening2025 Next we hear about de-implementing screening where risk reduces (e.g. via HPV vaccination), and more on balancing benefits vs different types of harm (e.g. overdiagnosis, carbon emissions) from @wiserhealthcare.bsky.social epidemiologist @katyjlbell.bsky.social

The International Shared Decision Making Society fosters person-centred healthcare & shared decision making worldwide. Our vision is that individual healthcare decisions are well-informed & based on collaboration with health care providers. Find out more at: www.isdmsociety.org #SDM #ISDM

Thanks Jolyn! I loved actually seeing how your dynamic consent intervention works!

The Sydney Health Literacy Lab is coming to Bluesky soon! This is about half of us, working across a huge range of health topics. We're passionate about #healthcommunication that meets #healthliteracy needs to improve equity, using behavioural & social science methods with a codesign approach.

A late post but want to get the word out there! New prelim work using generative AI to simplify hospital discharge instructions is out in npj Digital Medicine! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The model was able to simplify instructions effectively, but 18% of outputs had a major safety risk.
