A fantastic review of our annual meeting earlier in July. Thanks @penarc.bsky.social !

Inspiring talk by @jessrmorley.bsky.social‬ at the @swaih.bsky.social annual meeting Really important issues to consider. Especially liked the "data availability law" (availability of high quality health data inverse to the health/care needs of the individual)

Exciting session on using the (appropriately named) "Epic" secondary care electronic healthcare records data for research by Prof Jane Masoli (pictured), Dr Nick kennedy and Michelle Ledbetter at the @swaih.bsky.social 2025 meeting @janemasoli.bsky.social @drnickkennedy.bsky.social
