I feel so lucky to be part of the TMRP @mrcnihrtmrp.bsky.social as a start to my academic career. You sit, you listen to an amazingly diverse set of research, and then debate on where ongoing research should go! I've posted some random thoughts from the group discussion

Our group session highlighted researchers are very "tool" skeptic. Good points for any researchers developing "tools" are to posted below 👇🏻

Finding an example to demonstrate your method research is incredibly difficult. Particularly for those which can be applied to multiple trial contexts. Like Goldilock's porridge 🍯, your example could be too vague or too extreme, and your feedback ends up focusing solely on that, and not your method!

It was great to go and meet the PhD students in trial methodology in Ireland! These students had their communication on trials methodology down to a tee! ☕ Favourite quotes: 
- Control arm = "wait and see group"
- Time to an event = "the time until you yawn during my presentation"

Gave my first lightning talk for my posters at #ICTMC2024, with many people over the conference saying to me "Oh you are the chocolate one" 🍫

When discussing why missing data matters in trials discussions don't have to be number focused. QR code below 👇🏻
