#HSR24

Big shout out to the #dietitians and gastroenterologists at STARS, Winners of the Poster Award at #HSR24!! Excellent example of research translation, taking a proven model and delivering at scale to promote equitable access to care.

Today's #HSR24 Plenary on meaningful and authentic lived experience and community involvement featured presentations by Prof Melissa Baysari, Prof Sarah Larkins and Dr Fiona Russo. Dr @dr-am-young.bsky.social then joined the speakers for a panel discussion lead by A/Prof @zephtyack.bsky.social

Meaningful and authentic consumer and community involvement is so important to our research at AusHSI so we’re proud to sponsor this morning’s CCI panel. Thankyou Fiona, @dr-am-young.bsky.social, Mel and Sarah for sharing your knowledge. #HSR24

Oh no I missed afternoon tea! Hopefully I can catch up tomorrow…!

BLUESKY MEGA-THREAD

Altmetric is thrilled and also LITERALLY RELIEVED to officially announce:

We are now tracking research attention as it happens on Bluesky!

We have been picking up posts on the site since late Oct.

Our team is on Bluesky all day answering questions.

Let's get into it!

Come by and meet the @uqchsr.bsky.social team under the Jacaranda Tree at #HSR24! The Australian Frailty Network team will be here during lunch today.

Our new paper published in JAMA Neurology reveals #frailty accelerates from 9 years before #dementia and is a strong dementia risk factor even when measured before that period.

Paper: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Featured on ABC news (a pleasant surprise!): www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3bs...

Just reinjecting an old favourite in the discourse 💕

Useful for your next academic presentation ✅

Yes please I’d love to be added! Dietitian from Brisbane, Australia working across research and clinical practice :)
