We found that family members of children living with cCMV identified a series of missed opportunities in the process of seeking a diagnosis for their child's impairment. This caused anxiety and distress and had knock-on effects for access to interventions and treatment.

We conducted a secondary analysis of responses to the UK National Screening Committee's 2021-22 public consultation on cCMV policy. The consultation received over 150 responses, which made it a uniquely large and rich source of qualitative data.

I'll be sharing some of the findings from my PhD research with families raising children with CZS in Colombia, and reflecting on wider lessons for the field of global health that can be learned from the Zika epidemic and its aftermath

We spent the afternoon discussing possible collaborative projects, funding bids, articles and events, all while using collage to design our 'dream' future research project

I must have got distracted and never finished the thread 🤦🏻‍♀️😹

Update: we have received a response from the Met, which continues to threaten to arrest peaceful protesters. Read the Met's response: www.amnesty.org.uk/resources/op...

We were joined by four fantastic panellists with a wealth of experience working in partnership with communities; Dr Jennifer Leason (@ucalgary.bsky.social ), Prof Jenevieve Mannell (@uclglobalhealth.bsky.social), Dr Sachin Barbde and Subhashree Samal (Ekjut)

The day also featured a panel discussion about meaningful partnerships for research on Indigenous health and climate change. This was chaired by the wonderful Audrey Prost (@uclglobalhealth.bsky.social)
