So delighted to have presented my PhD work on psychosocial risk factors for physical multimorbidity in psychosis at the @rcpsych.bsky.social conference yesterday! Papers incoming 📝 @drhosang.bsky.social @ksbhui.bsky.social @qmulpsychiatry.bsky.social

💡Interesting to read the list of the 10 most cited papers ever 📊 (as reported by @nature.com). Number 9 is the Braun & Clarke paper on using #thematic analysis in #psychology ! @bpsofficial.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...
