Just so we’re clear: Labor is choosing to work with the worst possible party on environmental issues, instead of the Greens and teals who actually want environmental regulation.
And Watt is already admitting it won’t have a climate trigger …

The research used to claim reliability of a ME/CFS blood test has important limitations, shown here.

Three possible confounders in a study proposing an ME/CFS blood test : sex/age, batch and inactivity/severity. Better designed studies by independent researchers are necessary.

Australians have received very poor information regarding MEcfs.

The Insight program was a travesty that had me yelling at the TV.

Long COVID is here to stay, even in children, and worsened by reinfections and ongoing transmission. Governments and health systems must prioritise research, care access, and protection for kids—otherwise, the long-term social and economic costs will keep rising.

v likely many of the 'non POTS' group have dysautonomia and orthostatic intolerance even if they don't meet these strict POTS criteria, still can be v debilitating and is treated v similarly to POTS. Expert clinicians take these cut offs fairly loosely

post infection conditions and invisible illnesses such as long COVID, ME/CFS, POTS, MCAS, HSD/ESD all continue to be vastly underfunded and under recognised across research, treatment and support despite being incredibly debilitating and increasingly prevalent

ANU colleagues and students - please share this post if you can:

The ANU governance project has extended our deadline to comment on the Draft report to next week - 7 October.

Here's a link to a feedback form, which also contains the link to the draft report:

docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
Feedback on ANU Governance Project Draft Report
The ANU Governance Project Working Group are proud to present the Draft Project Report for community feedback and consultation. The Draft Project Report is available on our website or through THIS LINK. Using a process that has involved deep listening and a participatory and deliberative process across the ANU community, we have compiled a unique and valuable body of evidence that documents what’s wrong with governance at the ANU and charts a way forward to help rebuild trust and to deliver best practice governance. Over 600 ANU staff, students, and stakeholders have participated in this project, and in contributing constructively to the future of ANU. This includes 590 members of the community who participated in our survey, 75 who participated in one-hour small group discussions, and over 40 from across the university who participated in our project workshop. The ANU community told us there a critical need for change: Over 96% of survey respondents and all discussion group participants believe current ANU governance is not fit for purpose and should be reformed. Over 92% of survey respondents and all discussion group participants expressed dissatisfaction with current ANU governance. Over 93% of survey respondents said they were dissatisfied with current practices of transparency at the ANU. Over 93% of survey respondents said they were dissatisfied with accountability frameworks at the ANU. The ANU Community has proposed the following near-term steps forward for a reformed ANU: Council must direct Finance to produce and publish a current budget breakdown. Council must revise and publish selection criteria for Executive positions. Council meetings must immediately be made fully accessible to the community. Academic Board must regularly review and assess the financial decisions of senior executives and Council. Commence senior leadership listening tours with the ANU community. Additional recommendations forwarded by the community are summarised in the full report, including a proposal to co-design legislative reform of the ANU Act with the community. The Working Group invites the ANU community and stakeholders to offer feedback via this form on the draft report by midnight on Tuesday 7 October. This deadline has been extended in order to allow us more time to hear and incorporate community feedback ahead of the release of our final report on Monday 20 October.

One lap, 400 miles, seven days: GP aims to set record on Cornwall perimeter run
Elsey Davis will tackle 18,000 metres of elevation on run to raise awareness of young-onset Alzheimer’s for her mum Most runners are content with a lap of their local park. But for one Cornish woman that is not nearly enough: she is aiming to race around the perimeter of her home county and set the fastest known time for the route. Elsey Davis, 36, a professional trail runner and GP, calculates she will run about 400 miles and tackle more than 18,000 metres of elevation – the equivalent of two Mount Everests.
