Grateful to @cejpreston.bsky.social for her help getting each chapter of my PhD published over the last few years. For transparency, this paper was desk rejected five times before review and went through one round of revisions.

This feels particularly relevant given the resurgence in diet related content across social media. Perhaps thinking further about what it is about these platforms that makes them so influential for body image might be one way we can develop a different narrative. jsomer.org/index.php/pu...

Many thanks to @olademk.bsky.social @josefienbreedvelt.bsky.social @eleanorchats.bsky.social as well as all of our co-authors, and @mhrincubator.bsky.social for bringing us together!

We hope to highlight actions that can be taken by individuals across all levels and shine a light on the unique perspectives that early career researchers can bring to the barriers that we all face.

We brought together people across sectors and hope to meet regularly moving forwards. Let me know if you'd like to be added to our mailing list! Thanks @cejpreston.bsky.social for reassuring me I could do it, and @ercaldwell.bsky.social and @gburton221.bsky.social for hosting discussions.

It was a great day with lots of inspiring and thought-provoking research presented. Finished off on a high with an hour talking about collaborations in the sun with @drkaithomas95.bsky.social ☀️☀️

Thanks for giving us the resources and support to do so ☺️

Am also grateful for this because we got to have such an enjoyable evening ☺️

Yep, I totally agree. We're always bound by the timeline of the project and that's not even nearly the same as the timeline of the relationships. Also agree re output! I'm interested in how we communicate those changes but it can seem invisible to external forces.
