UK NIHR and Aus NHMRC joint projects planning (FORENSIC and ACL STARR) in Brisbane with Prof Nadine Foster and the STARS team hosting our combined SITU longreach and USyd squad. Can’t beat a bit of genuine collaboration. Thanks for having us.

Prof Greg Fox (USyd SVI and NHMRC CTC) at the podium, delegates and the faculty, including our wonderful Viet Duc hospital colleagues, at the 1st Asian Surgical Trials Workshop (#BOASTiC) hosted in Hanoi, Vietnam. Some great ideas and projects.

Made good progress with REINFORCE. Learnt a lot from Marion Campbell and her numerous talks and seminars.

The team are red and ready…the boss is proud

BASK 24 conference in lovely Manchester. Tuesday sessions. Colleague and friend Nick Bottomley speaking in multi-lig knee injury session (chaired by Kash A and Raghbir K). Interesting, sensible, practical and canal tastic.

Can't tell you how delighted I am to be listening to a session on RESEARCH at BASK 24. An ideal contemporary & knowledgeable Faculty sharing general collective insight on the wider research journey. Helpful and much needed. Shows how far we have come. Hats off to the BASK Exec.

Super constructive REINFORCE (robotic surgery) review day in Cardiff with our lovely South West and Welsh colleagues. Yes, Torkington dodged the photo (his agent didn't allow), but was very there. Thanks to all, especially the organisers.

All set for #BOASTIC2024. Three days of training in clinical trials design and conduct for surgical trainees. First time in Dublin! Looking forward to lots of science, indepth discussion and craic! Fantastic venue & huge thanks to RCSI for hosting.

Delighted to host this years #BOASTiC2024 surgical trials workshop in RCSI. Fantastic to bring world class training to our trainees 🪡 🇮🇪

The 11th BOASTIC with our surgical friends in Ireland at the RCSI (and also supported by TMRN) now complete. Wonderful 3 days. Great projects, great people, great hospitality. Clic took the chocolate. Onwards and upwards for Surgical Trials Eire.

Second REINFORCE investigator meeting for our lovely Oxford and South West teams (Bristol). Super engagement. Thank you all and the organisers. The REINFORCE is strong....

Our latest paper shows that intervention fidelity is crucial for accurately interpreting RCT treatment effect estimates and informing clinical practice changes. See why/how/by by how much (first paper to quantify) here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Some little gems at the November Annual Academic Surgery Conference (NAASC) 2024 run by RACS in Adelaide. One related to our RCS BOASTIC. Dr Meet Patel showing methodology training facilitates publication output in medics. Good to have some numbers on that.

Which one are you? Mark Bray, business and life coach talking imposter syndrome at one of the more esoteric (still excellent) sessions of the November Annual Academic Surgery Conference (NAASC) in gorgeous Adelaide.

Big plenary talk from Prof Marion Campbell (from the world’s biggest podium!) at the Australian Clinical Trials Alliance (ACTA) Melbourne. Always high value. BOASTIC, RCS and MRC all get mentions.

Recently felt a bit down about NHS/UK health system. Faith totally restored after top notch care for nasty finger infection. Nail off & healing nicely. Brilliant hand/plastics unit (HAPI), wonderfully talented people Oxford and Swansea. Thank you all. (ps it's ketchup not blood).

Enjoying the ATP and ACTA teletrials conf in Brisbane. I can’t help thinking some of the excellent efficiency and problem solving used for rural trials could be harnessed for our increasingly burdensome non rural work. Reverse the expertise flow!
