Its time for the biggest annual stroke conference in the UK, #UKSF25 I will be presenting on the Multistaged Cognitive Screen - Stroke project: development phase. See attached image and full LinkedIn post: www.linkedin.com/posts/sam-s-...

Its official, our MCS-Stroke study has launched in the Wirral and the team of OTs and rehab assistants will be collecting up to 80 stroke survivors for our study. Read more in the link. www.linkedin.com/posts/sam-s-...

A new report from TransActual looks at the impact of the 2025 EHRC interim update on access to, and experiences within, gendered spaces in the UK. Read the full report here: transactual.org.uk/gendered-spa... #TransRights #EHRC #ScrapTheBathroomBan #EqualityAct

Out now 💥 Work completed with Dr Suzanne Burns and Prof. @neledemeyere.bsky.social "Revision of the Multiple Errands Test–Home (MET-Home) for English Speaking Community Dwelling Adults and Stroke Survivors" See link for details :) www.linkedin.com/posts/sam-s-...

One Month Milestone for the MCS-Stroke Project It’s been just one month since we opened recruitment for the MCS-Stroke project across two NHS hospitals — and I'm thrilled to share that we’ve already recruited and assessed 24 stroke survivors using the new tool. www.linkedin.com/posts/sam-s-...

Ok #FESN2025 is over! As always, my favourite mainland European conference. My main goal is to make new connections, meet up with existing connections, and get my work out there. This year I presented the Mini-OCS, which is now fully out there for use with chronic stroke survivors in English..

Today, September 1st 2025 marks the first day for data collection for the Multistage Cognitive Screen - Stroke (MCS-Stroke) project funded by the Stroke Association (see lnkd.in/eiKHWE4p). This is a huge step for my project which will validate the MCS-Stroke. Find out more on my LinkedIn post.

Ahead of next weeks Federation of the European Societies of Neuropsychology (FESN) conference in Leipzig, Germany, see our poster showcasing the Mini-Oxford Cognitive Screen. The screening tool is now available for licensing and use. We think it best suits primary care settins with chronic stroke.

🎉 Huge congratulations to Sam Webb @drsamswebb.bsky.social on receiving the Rising Star Award at #OPSYRIS2025! 🌟🏆✨ A fantastic achievement recognising your outstanding contributions in stroke research. 🧠👏 #RisingStar #StrokeResearch

Thank you to Sam Webb @drsamswebb.bsky.social for a fantastic #OPSYRIS2025 talk on the co-production and development of the Multistage Cognitive Screen – Stroke (MCS-Stroke)! 🧠 Huge congratulations on receiving the Rising Star Award — so well deserved! 🌟🏆👏🎉 #StrokeResearch #Cognition #RisingStar

Happy to share the development, standardisation, and validation of the Mini - Oxford Cognitive Screen, a brief (<8mins) cognitive screen for chronic stroke survivors that is relevant for primary care settings. Now out Open Access in ESJ. @neledemeyere.bsky.social @eugeneyhtang.bsky.social

🌟 A huge congratulations to our Rising Star Award winners — @drsamswebb.bsky.social and Dr Lauren Lucas! 🌟 Both have made outstanding contributions to #stroke research, and their dedication is helping to shape the future of the field. 🧠💡 #StrokeResearch #OPSYRIS2025

Back to work after Easter break which followed annual leave. Half of my morning was making a todo list from the mass emails received in the last 7-days - soon to actually start! Happy Easter all - lets smash the next few months until summer.

Two grant rejections this week - onwards and upwards! #Reality #Research

Co-production workshops done for the week - such an exceptional experience to hear from a diverse range of healthcare professionals to inform development of our new cognitive screen. Now to decode all of the feedback and make changes!

Count down 15 minutes (!!) for my first allied health professional workshop as part of my postdoctoral fellowship funding by the Stroke Association to co-produce a staged cognitive screening tool for stroke.

This academic year, I have submitted two of my first ever NHS ethics applications (one commercial one non-commercial). How different the process is depending on whos paying! First REC meeting today, wish me luck :)

Last push for this, as we approach the end of Jan and these workshops are taking place in Feb :)

Really quite exciting planning the next few months co-production workshops and how we will get my new cognitive screening app platform off the ground running in next few years. More to come!

Never too much lab pride at the office. Next we will get t-shirts ;)

Epic talk by Prof. Martin James on the past, present, and future of stroke research. We are all responsible to be the future leaders in stroke research and implementation. #UKSF24

I'm recruiting for my co-production workshops with health care workers involved in stroke and cognitive assessment at #UKSF24 If interested in helping out, please get in touch or grab me in the lobby today :) we hope to run these workshops in the new year.

First day at #UKSF24 great talks on co-design and how to facilitate communication to aid mental capacity assessments

Very much looking forward to speaking in this #UKSF session next week and sharing my thoughts on the methodological future for efficient stroke trials. Just need to squeeze that huge topic into 15 mins and finish off my slides! 😂

I'll be at #UKSF24 too, see you then

We recently published this commentary with some of our views on post #stroke cognitive prediction research, which might be of interest to people here. Happy to discuss academic.oup.com/braincomms/a...

First tweet as I've moved over from Twitter (X) :)
