I’ve never considered the structural, social and individual determinants of health, in relation to Alzheimer’s and Dementia. A topic that’s close to my heart.

I’d love to see more research like this in Australia, and in Tasmania. Such an important topic.

Last month I presented at The Australian Sociological Assocation's conference in #Perth. I talked about findings from my #PhD on women's experiences of bodyweight.

Time poverty and gendered responsibilities lead to women not engaging in "healthy" food and physical activity practices. #Womenshealth

I attended my first academic conference last month with @sociologyaustralia.bsky.social and presented findings from my #PhD.

I outlined a framework that I designed to operationalise social practice theory in empirical research, including step-by-step instructions.
