Today is submitted my third research grant application in 6 months focusing on using donor breastmilk to improve outcomes for babies in neonatal care.

Such a privilege to be working so closely with the Northwest human milk bank and their amazing donors

Had a lovely time today talking to the @salforduni midwifery students about my research in maternal and fetal health, from placentas to breastmilk, bench to bedside and how they can engage with research to help care for women and babies

Really engaging group of students!

Always been there for journalists and always been a big believer in #sciencecommunication

Had to highlight a few recent examples because they merge with my other passion - #football!

I've been successful in the lastest BRIC Funding Call & gained funding to further our work into understanding the immunology of human breast milk

Goal to see whether some individuals breastmilk could boost immunity and prevent complications in neonatal care

🔴 25% of newly diagnosed type 1s had DKA at diagnosis

⚫️ Nearly 40% of type 1 children have accessed mental health support

Hopefully educating the next generation can make a change!

🔴Number of people with diabetes expected to increase to over 260 million by 2045

⚫️ In 22/23 there were 1245 children diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. 4 of them were under the age of 4

Had the pleasure of talking #diabetes during a Pathophysiology lecture for second year #BMS students @SalfordUni today

Some eye opening facts to follow below

What does #diabetes tech really mean?

Gracie has gone from "The diabetic child" to just "a child" (who happens to be diabetic)

Diabetes will not stop her doing anything - whether interviewing celebrities, making tackles to help her football team or just be her abnormal self

Makes you grateful for the NHS 😅

#TIL two things

1. Wild Bananas cause intestinal obstruction

2. It's more popular to poke the obstruction with a stick then visit a doctor in Laos

Absolutely blown away once again by the thanks and appreciatation shown by my amazing level 6 BMedSci students

For some this job is simply a paid employment, for me it's about inspiring and educating the next best and brightest.

Thank you for making me feel valued and appreciated

Huge thank you to my second year BMedSci students today who presented me with some lovely gifts today after my last session with them before my move to Salford.

I always knew leaving would be hard and my incredible students are proving me right!
