WHAT WE FOUND: We used different statistical methods to assess if apathy (lack of motivation) in people with PD changed over time. The linear mixed effects models showed a significant increase in apathy each year whereas other methods did not find this increase.

As a non-engineer working in an engineering lab, I've always been amazed and impressed that people write and run code complex enough to be left for hours/days to run. So I'm _pretty_ smug right now waiting 15 mins for a code to run💅💅💅

Very proud to watch Sam Tan present his MSc research at the RNOH Therapies Conference🤗 The RNOH has such an inspiring programme of clinical research, empowering (& funding💵) their staff to improve patient care and outcomes. 10-y on the staff are getting doctoral fellowships and £££k funding!

NBD grants are out! Make sure you don’t miss the chance of having FUNding to support your National Biomechanics Day activities! www.thebiomechanicsinitiative.org

Really glad I painted my nails yday, the glitter baby pink really sets off the chain grease 🩷🚴‍♀️

Great exposure to broader veterans research topics and policy at the OVA conference in York last week. The great thing about a multidisciplinary conference is hearing some excellent qualitative research, like that from Prof Lisa Scullion on navigating the benefits system as a veteran

A classic case of *scientist has extremely new and brilliant idea* and someone already did it...😅 You can do this 👇 (see @chrismccrum.bsky.social comment for how to)

Imagine if you could link your university access to EndNote so that it could find and access non-open access PDFs💡🤔 No more finding the paper in EndNote, finding and downloading the file online, giving it an arbitrary name that you pretend has order, and uploading to EndNote 🌈🌞🌱
