Super excited to be starting the paediatric sleep school in Bertinoro! Really looking forward to meeting lots of other researchers and clinicians passionate about sleep over the next few days 💤 #ESRS #PaediatricSleepSchool

Incredibly pleased to announce the publication of our second study! Sleep is important with far-reaching consequences concerning adolescent suicide behaviour.

Over the moon to share my first publication on the prospective association between sleep and adolescent self-harm! A massive thank you to my supervisors @nkytang.bsky.social, Isabel Morales-Muñoz, and @bagshaap.bsky.social for their constant support and guidance. Spoiler alert: sleep is important!

Always impressed by the work of my colleague and friend, Yibai, who is conducting some super cool research on joint action and verbal communication! 💛 Also have to admire the shirt she's designed just for the conference!!

@mollymccarthy.bsky.social shared her experience and results from her recently completed PhD on self-harm and suicide in NHS emergency departments whereby huge discrepancies in coding practices were observed and ideas to address structural barriers were generated alongside staff and stakeholders!

Some really inspiring insights into an unconventional career path into self-harm and suicide from @rosieallister.bsky.social. Emphasising the importance of not giving up and finding the right balance between flexibility and stability - food for #earlycareerresearcher thought! #suicideresearch #vet

A wonderful first day at the #EMCRF 2025, hosted by the Suicidal Behaviour Research Lab! @katiecunneen.bsky.social @nkytang.bsky.social

This afternoon I shared the (very) pre-lim findings from my final PhD study at the 2025 #EMCRF! Thank you so much to the organisers for a wonderful first day of the conference - it's been great to connect with so many other #ECR and #MCR dedicated to the field of #self-harm and #suicide

A very powerful keynote presentation from Dr Susan Rasmussen, where she shared her personal journey into the field, including highlights, challenges and lessons. An inspiring start to the #EMCRF2025! #suicideprevention #research #ECR #MCR

Super excited for the 9th Suicide & Self-Harm Early- and Mid-Career Researchers' Forum! Great opening workshop on navigating how to support our own wellbeing whilst researching this area! #ECR #researcherwellbeing #suicide #research #phd

Really touched to have been awarded the Best Presentation at the Psychology PG 2025 Conference. Shout out to all of the other incredible presenters showcasing their ground-breaking research!

Great to share the pre-lim findings from my final PhD study looking at childhood #trauma, #sleep, #self-harm, and #suicide at the Psy PG conference! Thank you to the organisers for creating such an interesting event! #longitudinal #research, #mediation, #cohort #study

Midlands Sleep Group annual conference today! Great talks, including ECR presentations by our very own @thomasbilterys.bsky.social & Peter To, highlighting the sleep-pain link and sleep being a worthy treatment target 🎯 🧪 @michaelapawley.bsky.social @warwickpsych.bsky.social

I have really enjoyed attending the 2025 Midlands Sleep Group conference with my Sleep and Pain Lab colleagues, learning about using #bigdata and #technology in #sleep research, sleep diagnostics, and circadian rhythm research. Thank you to the organisers for running such a great event! 🎉

Always interesting to hear about my fellow lab mate's research on sleep, pain, and physical activity using data from @nkytang.bsky.social WITHIN study project. Peter has found better perceived sleep quality may reduce next-day pain intensity. #sleep #chronicpain #research #earlycareerresearcher

Excited to be attending the annual Midland Sleep Group conference in Leicester today. Very interesting talks by @thesleepcharity.bsky.social on motivating societal attitudinal change towards sleep and @thomasbilterys.bsky.social on using CBT-i to manage chronic pain! #sleep #chronicpain #research
