The QNI is calling on government to save the School of Nursing at Cardiff University. Closure would lead to the loss of 80 teaching jobs and hundreds of newly qualified nurses each year, essential for healthcare in Wales and beyond: lnkd.in/efbp4A6T qni.org.uk/news-and-eve...

Calls for ministers to act as university job losses accelerate. Over 1,000 redundancies have been announced within a fortnight. www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-u...

I couldn’t agree more with Alison’s insights in the BMJ opinion piece. It’s frustrating to see holism treated as if it’s a novel concept, only for healthcare to revert to task-driven outputs. blogs.bmj.com/bmj/2019/05/...

Misandry, patriarchy, and feminism are thoughtfully explored in this interview. The historical context adds depth, highlighting shifts to the present. A balanced & insightful piece that navigates differing perspectives without diluting the debate. www.centreformalepsychology.com/male-psychol...

Lived experience is widely used, but do we reflect on its meaning? A blog made me rethink its use in research—especially nursing—and its fit with co-production frameworks. How do we ensure it’s genuinely integrated, not tokenistic? www.linkedin.com/posts/lse-im...
