I'm thrilled to share that the final article of my PhD thesis has just been published in Sports Medicine and Health Science! 🧠💪 This study investigates whether tDCS can amplify the pain-reducing effects of exercise. You can read the article here: https://t.co/pjxEyxA0xv

tDCS produces an electrical current to manipulate neural activity. Is there a possibility that it influences the brain via other mechanisms? @AidanLewis_ brand new publication investigates this possibility. Congrats Aidan! 🧠⚡

Grateful for the incredible opportunity to present my poster at the @abs_society conference this weekend! 🌐✨ It was an enriching experience to share insights, connect with fellow researchers, and dive deep into the latest advancements in brain stimulation. #ABSSconference

A day of firsts and PBs across the board for our @ActiveBrainUC and @UC_RISE staff and students who completed the Canberra Times Fun Run yesterday. Congratulations team! 🏅🏆

We're #psyched that PhD student @AidanLewis_ attended the NSANZ conference last week and presented the findings of his study examining the effects of tDCS on BBB permeability in healthy adults! 👨🏽‍🏫

MeetOurTeam: @AidanLewis__ has spent the last five months collecting data. Before he finishes his PhD, we thought it would be a great time to introduce him ! Aidan is interested in optimising #tDCS for the enhancement of exercise performance 🧠⚡️

Another showcase of the brilliant research in the works with some of our HDR students! Congratulations on two great seminars Tino and @AidanLewis__ !

Ever wondered how many symptoms make up all of adult psychopathology described in the DSM-5? It’s 628!

How many do you think repeat across multiple diagnoses? If you answered 231 symptoms repeating a total of 1022 times (median 3 times per symptom, range 2-22), good job!

A really important topic coming into the NSW election this week. We need invest in transport infrastructure for an ageing population. - not just building some new train lines in Sydney.

[Crikey @crikey_news]

Regardless of the election outcome, NSW's elderly face four more years of a lack of commitment to keeping them mobile.

As @AidanLewis__ and Loire Hunter write, a lack of mobility contributes to increased morbidity in older people. Action is needed now.

A more opinionated piece written by a colleague and I about proposed healthcare reform that continues to fall below the mark of what we deserve as an ageing nation.

[Crikey @crikey_news]

OPINION | Without change, residential aged care will morph into a substandard backstop for the nation’s acute care system. And either we, or the people we care for, will have a system no longer fit for purpose.
