Thank you Derek for sharing so openly and honestly about The People’s Review… worth a read!

They’ve helped shape this project from a tiny spark 🎇 of an idea into what it is today - through deep discussions 💬, big questions ❓ , problem-solving 🧠, and plenty of laughs along the way 🤣

As a team that includes trans and non-binary people we know any criticism we make of Cass will be seen as ideological This is why we grounded our work in a methodical critique, using established tools Whilst our identities still matter, this is about the poor and biased application of methodology

Proud to have been apart of this team. Research methodology matters. Policy should be based on methodologically sound research. Our results show the many methodological flaws of the Cass Review. Check it out ⬇️

We are #hiring One full-time (lecturer B) and three part-time (lecturer A) roles - something to suit everyone! The details of the post and how to apply can be found under "Academic Vacancies" here: www.universityofgalway.ie/about-us/jobs/ Get in touch if you want to know more. Please share widely.

On the UK Supreme Court's decision yesterday - lots of people are erroneously taking it as evidence that trans women are not women. This misunderstands the fact that the law of any country does not control the concept of gender. No trans woman in the UK or beyond is any less of a woman now. 👇

“White people are used to taking up space in discussions, but when it comes to racial equity, the most important is listening, actively listening. This does not mean we should not be engaged, but we need to be mindful of when to step back and let others lead the conversation. “ #PatientEngagement

Very exciting session ⬇️⬇️

With years of physical recovery and mental healing I now focus on the impact I make within health research and will forever support my bone cancer community. 🧡 #WorldCancerDay #WCD25 #WearARibbon #UntilTheresACure #BoneCancer #BionicWarrior

At the time of diagnosis my son was 5 years old and often feared that my son will have to live a life without his mum. I felt lonely, isolated and disengaged with everything and everyone.

My life was turned upside down by bone cancer. Today is World Cancer Day and I am joining the BCRT community in spreading awareness of bone cancer...🧡💙 In September 2011 I was diagnosed with Osteosarcoma in my left knee. I had limb-savage surgery and my life has never been the same.

Today is Retraction Day, when we observe the anniversary of the retraction (Feb. 2, 2010) of the fraudulent paper that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. 🧪#medsky
