Huge congratulations to Dr Joe Stanford on passing his PhD viva yesterday with minor corrections (@laurahealybob.bsky.social). Amazing to see his research journey. Thanks to Prof Chris Harwood and Dr Louise Davis for a challenging and supportive examination.

First Bluesky post to introduce Dr. Katie Garstang 👩🏼‍🎓🥳🎉 a pleasure to supervise, her research on goal setting for physical activity challenges lots of what we know about how to set goals to be effective. This is just the start for her so watch this space!
