WHAT WE FOUND: We used different statistical methods to assess if apathy (lack of motivation) in people with PD changed over time. The linear mixed effects models showed a significant increase in apathy each year whereas other methods did not find this increase.
New preprint from @ahanff.bsky.social :
Mixed effects models but not t-tests or linear regression detect progression of apathy in Parkinson’s disease over time: A comparative analysis.

As a non-engineer working in an engineering lab, I've always been amazed and impressed that people write and run code complex enough to be left for hours/days to run.

So I'm _pretty_ smug right now waiting 15 mins for a code to run💅💅💅

Great exposure to broader veterans research topics and policy at the OVA conference in York last week. The great thing about a multidisciplinary conference is hearing some excellent qualitative research, like that from Prof Lisa Scullion on navigating the benefits system as a veteran
