LENS (Lived Experience Network for Scholars) brings together mental health researchers with lived experience. We are funded by the @mhrincubator.bsky.social and brought together by @ruthndwrites.bsky.social + @ruthknight.bsky.social.
Thanks to all who came to our second meeting today, and special thanks to @thetealtigeruk.bsky.social for such an interesting and thought-provoking talk. It's a real privelige to be part of these discussions and share space with others grappling with multiple facets of lived experience research.
Join us online (14 July, 1–2pm) for a special webinar exploring the power of mixed methods in #mentalhealth #research. Featuring insights from a newly published BMJ Mental Health paper by ECRs & a panel of expert voices across the research landscape!👇 mentalhealthresearch.org.uk/advancingmix...
