PhD thesis submitted!

Our bodies need energy to survive. In #MND energy production is thought to be reduced in some cells that support neurones. Ben Hall is researching why this happens. This could lead to the development of targeted therapies. 🔬 Listen below ⬇ #WithoutResearchItsJustGuesswork

Really enjoying #ENCALS2023 and delighted to be showing some of the exciting results from my PhD. Come and chat with me at poster 172!

So much more to understand about nutrition and metabolism in ALS. Important to know if getting nutrition right can make a difference to those living with ALS. Reflections of this from Derik Steyn Shyuan Ngo 🧠🔬🧫👩🏻‍🍳😻 and colleagues. rdcu.be/dhUlO

sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Delighted to share our new manuscript, which is my first first-author publication from my PhD: a critical view on the identification of hypermetabolism in #MND.

Dr Roscoe!! 🥼🎓 A huge thank you to my examiners Ammar Al-Chalabi and Liz Williams for such an enjoyable viva experience, and of course to my fantastic supervisors Haris Stavroulakis, Chris McDermott and *#ScottAllen for their support, encouragement and guidance! #phdone

Very exciting to see my name in the programme for the 34th International Symposium on #ALS/#MND! 👇 symposium.mndassociation.org/programme/ Really looking forward to presenting our research on the role of anthropometric measurements to assess nutritional state in MND 🦵📏

Looking forward to presenting our research on the role of anthropometric measurements to assess nutritional state! Check out abstract C48 for more information ⬇️ #alsmndsymp #MND

Arrived in Switzerland ahead of the #alsmndsymp. Would be rude not to take advantage of the local delights 🤭

Well done to Sarah Roscoe who gave a brilliant talk on methods for assessing the effect of diet in ALS

Had a fantastic experience doing my first international conference presentation at the #alsmndsymp. Thank you MND Research for the opportunity to present our research funded by the MND Association, NIHR Sheffield Biomedical Research Centre, Darby Rimmer MND Foundation, supported by the Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre.

Really enjoyed working on this project and delighted to see the results published! Well done Tom Payne and all involved! 👏

Really enjoyed hosting Derik Steyn Amber Sewell-Green Jeryn Chang and Sally Neville in Sheffield! Great to discuss research ideas and exciting opportunities for future collaborations! Thanks FoH RSA, University of Sheffield for awarding me and Ben Hall a Career Development Award to host this event!

Dr Sarah Roscoe will be talking us through her PhD project where her aim was to propose a suitable and pragmatic approach for the assessment of nutritional state in people living with MND- 28 Feb, Birmingham – Attend from £75, tinyurl.com/5bnb2enk #NSGStudyDay2024

Motor neurone disease (#MND) takes everything, but the MND Association is here so no one faces it alone. Show your support here: mndassociation.org/mnd-takes #Corrie

Dietitian Sean White talked us through the MND HighCALS Study and the OptiCALS study design- such great research, we can’t wait to see what the OptiCALS results show and how this can better nutritional care #NSGStudyday2024

What an inspirational talk from Hazel Carter talking about the experiences and journey of her and her husband after he was diagnosed with MND in 2017, see more information on her website here: lifesgoodbook.co.uk #NSGStudyday2024

Thank you for inviting me to speak at the BDA Neurosciences Study Day! It was great to open conversations between researchers and dietitians in #MND 🥼
