Congratulations to Dr Jane Dancey (my former PhD student) on publishing this study on the individual and organisational factors that drove Monash University's healthy vending initiative. Individual leadership was important, but a supportive organisational environment was crucial: shorturl.at/wu4ga

New publication alert ⚠️ We evaluated controls on food marketing in six different jurisdictions, producing recommendations for effective, transparent, and accountable regulation. Key takeaway: good regulatory design is just as important as regulatory tool choice. Full version: shorturl.at/ky4fp

Hot off the press!🔥Our new @naturefood.bsky.social paper asks how have governments regulated ultra-processed foods? We find a strong skew towards voluntary & information-based (i.e. weak) measures. There is huge potential to expand scope & strength of regulation 👇🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s43...

A pleasure to talk to @elpais.com about our recent research in @naturefood.bsky.social 🙏 Great piece on the limits of current UPF policy approaches that put consumer responsibility ahead of structural measures 🙌 Our full findings here➡️ nature.com/articles/s43... elpais.com/salud-y-bien...

Immensely proud of my PhD student Tanita Northcott (at Deakin Uni) for having this work published in Nature Food. It's a comprehensive analysis of how governments are regulating UPFs, finding a skew towards voluntary and information-based measures: www.nature.com/articles/s43...

I'd like to use my first post here to promote a paper by my PhD student (now graduate!) Dr Jane Dancey. Jane's new paper analyses vending contracts as a form of private regulation, and recommends how to use them effectively 👏 pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... #vending #foodretail
