I recently saw the brilliant neurosciences dept at Middlesbrough's James Cook Hospital. But it only has 18 rehab beds when the guidelines say it needs 80 beds. I asked the PM for the resources to develop a world-class new rehabilitation centre to serve Tees Valley. #PMQs

Great to see @lilyfoundation.bsky.social on BlueSky! A charity very close to my heart, who do amazing work throughout the UK for people living with and affected by #MitochondrialDisease #Mito.

Some things are worth celebrating. My 2024 ‘perfect’ sourdough. Never to be recreated? Can’t wait to taste it now!!

Revived my current sourdough starter (affectionately called Ambrosia) for some Christmas baking. She is aggressively powerful and I don’t know how to temper the bloom 🥲

I have 6 working days left in the nhs 🤯

Massive away win for the little fella.

As we are still all a bit new here, a blast from the past, an open access article about cognitive communication disorders following brain injury. The most viewed article of all time in Brain Injury.... www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Really looking forward to presenting at this in March with @neuroben.bsky.social 👏 🧠 🗣️

Neuro friends and colleagues, the WFNR Neuro rehab Special Interest Group NR-SIG-WFNR is now on BlueSky! @nrsigwfnr.bsky.social

With assisted dying dominating the news, please take a moment to consider your own wishes around the end of life. It's surprisingly quick & easy to plan ahead. This guide from @hospiceuk.bsky.social covers advance care plans, powers of attorney etc. So useful. www.hospiceuk.org/information-...

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Love this page. I wish Amy Edmondson was here on BlueSky! It’s not only being willing to learn, but brave enough to fail many times in pursuit of that learning 🙌🏻

I’m in very cold Doncaster for work today. Lovely walk with a good podcast. I always appreciate these opportunities for a slower start.

With a fully remote team of just 20 employees, Bluesky has surpassed 20 million users in its first year since opening to the public and is stealing thunder from rivals hundreds of times its size. At a time when conventional wisdom among bosses is that workers must be in-person to be productive.

Its great to see the community growing here! I have created a #neuropsychology starter pack so we can get together more easily - please share and let me know if you'd like added in :) go.bsky.app/VV4ZhEx

🚨 THE PSYCHOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT OF FND IN CHILDREN AND ADULTS 🚨 A new briefing paper from the Division of Neuropsychology @donbps.bsky.social Proud to be part of the team working on this chaired by @nielsdetert.bsky.social & dedicated to the late Jason Price who originally conceived of the idea 🙏❤️

Join us for a #Webinar on 5 December where I'll introduce the Vision Screening Checklist for Traumatic Brain Injury, and dive into the crucial topic of identifying subtle yet significant visual changes after TBI 🔗 babicm.glueup.com/event/124853/ #CaseManagement #VSCTBI #TBI @babicmorg.bsky.social

I have added lots of new folks to this #neuropsychology starter park. Happy to add more, just message me. Please spread the word :) go.bsky.app/VV4ZhEx

My first post! Our current Social Communication Group cohort have decided to organise a charity quiz to raise money for HeadwayTyneside. We would LOVE to have a huge turnout to support both them and such a great cause. We have a date and venue so block it out in your calendars! More details to come.

So glad @helenbevan.bsky.social is here!

Bluesky now has over 20M people!! 🎉 We've been adding over a million users per day for the last few days. To celebrate, here are 20 fun facts about Bluesky:

Declining standards of care for stroke patients must be reversed, says charity

The energy of 2013 Twitter but everybody's back and knees hurt more.

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire… And fuel, And oxygen, And an ignition source, And a system that brought them together.

Glad Alex is here - thanks for the direction @cliodhnacarroll.bsky.social. Absolutely essential account for all things MCA, MHA etc.

Very cool visualiser for just how bustling this network is

Just resharing this starter pack for those just joining!

Since arriving here, I’ve had absolutely no interest in going back to X. This feels just like Twitter did when it was at its best. Exciting to see all of the good stuff (and people!!!) coming back

I really don’t understand this whole ‘stay on Twitter and fight’ thing. You’re jousting with bots and reply guys and wading through ads it’s not Waterloo.

For those new here. As well as doing a bit of neuropsychology, I also dabble in (aka obsess) over specialty coffee. This was my Saturday morning sensation. #coffee #specialtycoffee

Seeing as we are all a bit new here and replaying some of our golden oldies (I am looking at you @themerl.bsky.social with your "Big Unit" photo!) here is a link to a wonderful paper by a much missed late friend and the lovely @samgilbert.bsky.social www.researchgate.net/publication/...

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.

Here goes, first post! Wonderful wonderful film from Headway East London worth 20 mins of everybody's time. The power of building communities based upon love (and chaos). Please watch, share the link, and donate if you can. headwayeastlondon.org/magicofchaos/

I’ve started a starter pack that I will continue to expand that I hope represents the UK #neurorehabilitation community. I am looking for collaborators to update this who might not represent my position - a white, male, ‘professional expert’. Ideally experts by experience. go.bsky.app/GuSZ8Pn

Looking to build my network of #psychologists and #neuropsychologists / #neuropsychology - who’s here?

Thanks to @cliodhnacarroll.bsky.social for the little nudge to try this network. Excited to see if it takes me back to heady days of original Twitter and the excellent network that existed there.
