CPR is on the curriculum, so why are nearly 4 in 10 students missing out? To change this, governments and local authorities must follow through on their commitments by offering better support and monitoring for CPR in schools. Help make it happen: action.resus.org.uk/cpr-in-schools

In the ASPEN phase 3 trial involving patients with noncystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, the rate of pulmonary exacerbations over a 52-week period was lower with brensocatib (10 mg or 25 mg per day) than with placebo. Full trial results: nej.md/4lBHwUr Editorial:

154 million lives saved in 50 years. That’s the power of vaccines. But millions still remain unprotected from diseases we know how to prevent. This #WorldImmunizationWeek, let’s show what’s #HumanlyPossible. #ForOurFuture #VaccinesWork

Inspired by other women academics such as Charlotte Summers and on the gender gap we still see in senior academic positions, I wanted to explore this further in the field of academic psychiatry... and then a blog was born 😊 Thank you so much Association for Child & Adolescent Mental Health Matt Kempen šŸ’™ šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¦ and

Today, I introduced (via email) Mark Toshner to an external speaker he has agreed to host for an upcoming #HLRI seminar as they haven’t met before. The speaker responded to ask if Mark Toshner's Waistcoat would be attending too. Made me laugh out loud - We have the best speakers!!

Luke Mordecai Vivek Trivedi Thanks Luke, Re MMC highly recommend reading 2008 UK House of Commons health select committee report - reads word for word to today’s disaster with recommendations ignored. History repeating itself with the same mistakes but on a threefold larger scale: publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200708/cm…
