A Medscape report reveals 85% of physicians see a need for medical education reform to address AI's rise. Experts call for early data science training to preserve clinical judgment and ensure patient safety. 🩺🖥️

Otavio Berwanger on “How to transform the way we deliver large-scale pragmatic CV clinical trials”. Amazing insights - how can we apply this in #DigitalHealth to conduct global “giant simple trials” to evaluate cardiovascular digital health interventions? #ACTA2024

Spain has approved “paid climate leave” of up to four days to allow workers to avoid traveling during weather emergencies, a month after floods killed at least 224 people. Several companies had ordered employees to keep working despite a red alert issued by the national weather agency.

Lovely afternoon celebration. With the class of 2024 conferred PhDs Not enough GPs do PhD in Australia and funding is needed to support clinicians with lived experience of one of the most complex of medical specialties. GP’s are experts in complexity Not many understand.

Can’t believe I only came across this article from @fzmarques.bsky.social now! Completely resonate with it and can’t help but make a thread with my favourite quotes - buckle up! 🧵🪡 www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...

Important to combine tractable research questions with a complex systems approach to conceptualising problems & their solutions or mitigations. This paper is definitely worth reading.

#MustRead Seye Abimbola's writing is powerful, and the messages are highly relevant. It's refreshing to have such a prominent voice in global health, a space often narrated by others. Unmissable—the book and the playlist! 📖 www.editions.ird.fr/produit/728/... 🎧🎶 open.spotify.com/playlist/5K5...

Thread for those new to BlueSky. First of all, welcome. It feels like a safer space, doesn’t it? But also perhaps a bit disorienting initially? Here’s some tips for getting your bearings.

"After recent changes to X, a gradual migration turns into a stampede," @kakape.bsky.social writes about Bluesky's explosive growth. @anastasiabiz.bsky.social says this reminds her of behavioral cascades, where a system that has reached a certain threshold can suddenly shift. Read more:

I'm a behavioural scientist working in public health. I codesign risk communication & decision making tools to address health literacy needs, especially for heart disease prevention. My original & still favourite topic is cognitive biases, and I'm super interested in how AI is going to amplify this!
