Super excited to attend the Digital Tech SIG at SAPC this year, where I'll be discussing my upcoming @fshi.bsky.social Mildred Blaxter Fellowship project on 'The Digital Facsimile in AI-enabled Access and Triage'.

Very pleased to share this blog post discussing my experiences of seeking 'impact' during my PhD for my doctoral funder, NIHR SPCR. For me, it grew iteratively and was grounded in relationships and collaboration. Hopefully of use to others currently undertaking their PhDs!
