#SMP2024 day 2. Great to meet #LabourParty MP/clinician Dr. Gordon Reid & chat candidly about Australia clinical/public health systems, PA guidelines, diabetes parliamentary inquiry, & crucial role of active living & healthy eating for prevention/management of diabetes/CVD/cancer

Prof Martin Green. Great story of Australian ingenuity in relation to solar energy cells, sound investment, and ultimately research translation and 'scaling up on steroids'. Solar now the cheapest energy source in most countries - <20¢/W!

#SMP2024 Science & Technology Australia

It's more important for Australia to be a smart country, rather than a 'lucky' one! Bolder investment in R&D and translation into products/tools needed, or we will pay the consequences down the line! Insightful National Press Club address from Sharath Sriram Science & Technology Australia

Excited to be on tarmac and heading to Science Meets Parliament in Canberra! Will be a fish out of water, but looking forward to talking science in a unique forum & learning loads.

Thanks Deakin IPAN for the opportunity to attend.

Great new #systematicreview , expertly led by Stephanie Prince, PhD, on the potential effects of Sedentary Behaviour on CRF. More work needed, but would be interesting population health implications, given known age-related ↓ in CRF, if SB interventions could at least help 'maintain' CRF

Interesting umbrella review attempting to disentangle an increasingly hot & complex topic, particularly in youth -- screen time & health/learning outcomes.

Indicates a need for more focus/guidelines on the content, context & environment of screen use.

Sad to hear about Steve Blair's passing. Paddy Panteleimon ("Paddy") Ekkekakis has put together an apt thread/tribute, summarizing both the positive and less positive aspects. The field loses a giant with a huge, yet wonderfully generous/humble personality. I always enjoyed my interactions with him.

📢Don't miss Charlotte Edwardson on BBC Radio 4's Inside Health at 9:00pm tonight, talking about her #research on the #Health effects of prolonged sitting with James Gallagher and putting him through his paces in one of our #NIHRLeicesterBRC #exercise labs.

The Physiology of Sedentary Behaviour (& potential benefits of⬇️or breaking it up)

journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.11…

Our attempt at summarising the evidence, with still much to be disentangled - distinct mechanisms, interactions, dose-response?

Huge credit to the talented Ana Jéssica Pinto👏

Breaking up prolonged sitting with brief light-intensity walking #breaks improves post-meal glucose & 48-hour glycaemic control in people living with type 1 #diabetes , without increasing hypoglycaemia. First proof-of-concept evidence in #T1D . #CGM

Physical Activity for Type 2 Diabetes Prevention: Some Is Better Than None, More Is Better, and Earliest Is Best -- diabetesjournals.org/care/article/4…

Thanks Benoit Arsenault for your nice commentary on our recent UK Biobank work on PA and incident Type 2 Diabetes

Listen to Paddy Dempsey discuss with RNZ new research showing that daily exercise equivalent to 11 minute brisk walk enough to reduce risk of early death, but that more #physicalactivity has added health benefits.

#EveryStepMatters

rnz.co.nz/audio/player?a…

Analysis of data from >30 million people finds that one in ten early deaths could be prevented if everyone managed at least half the NHS recommended level of physical activity.

Dr Leandro Garcia and colleagues report today in British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM).

🌟Doing some #PhysicalActivity is better than none🌟

✅ #Health benefits can be gained from <75 min/week moderate activity
✅Population benefits might be gained from increasing PA levels of inactive people to just half the recommendations
