The final ECR presentation for the day is Dr. @AmandaMarch7 from @SwanseaUni presenting on The Impact of Published Guidance on Trends in the Pharmacological Management of Depression in Children and Adolescents - a whole population e-cohort data linkage study in Wales, UK.
Key finding: Antidepressant prescribing for children and young people changed after 2016 guidance, but not as expected. #MentalHealthResearch #DataScienceMeeting #ECR
Next up in the ECR presentations, Ms. Luce Stewart from @KingsIoPPN presents Mortality in mental health service users without a diagnosis - a South London EHR linkage study. Their findings show that people with unspecified/uncertain diagnoses have significantly higher standardised mortality ratios (SMR), similar to those with F-code (mental health) diagnoses. #MentalHealthResearch #ECR #DataScienceMeeting @MQmentalhealth
Up first at our Data Science Meeting with @MQmentalhealth is Dr. Elizabeth Ford from @bma_bsms discussing the ethical challenges of using AI in data-driven mental health care. How can AI help without reinforcing inequalities? Involvement of patients and end users throughout the AI development process is crucial to reduce stigma and bias. #MentalHealthInnovation #AI #MentalHealthResearch. Stay tuned for more…
Our Data Science Meeting with @MQmentalhealth kicks off this morning with a warm welcome from @L_Arseneault. Ready for a day of incredible insights and discussions on data-driven mental health innovation? Stay tuned for updates #MentalHealthResearch
Good Morning all! We are very excited today at MQ to be welcoming speakers to the @DatamindUK Data Science Meeting. If you have an interest in science or #mentalhealth then following our live tweets today might just be for you. What is DATAMIND? Let us explain…
So pleased @SamaritansCymru will be ensuring Lived Experience shapes and engages with this vital new Research Centre, at every turn. It's going to be a real asset for Wales, with influence far beyond.
We welcome the launch of the National Centre and its appointment as the Advisory body to the Welsh Government. Having a strong research evidence base for self‑harm and suicide in Wales will help to provide better support and implement good policy.
@WGHealthandCare
Great to see the Strategy launch in Wales…highlights that suicide prevention and support for those who self harm matters in Wales. Funding of the National Centre will ensure evidence drives policy and practice. Lots to do.
🚨 Launching today in Wales: The National Centre for Suicide Prevention and Self-Harm Research.
Led by @ProfAnnJohn@SwanseaUni in partnership with @cardiffuni, @UniSouthWales and the @samaritans, the Centre, funded by @ResearchWales will drive evidence-based change and play a key role in delivering the new national strategy on suicide and self-harm prevention which is being also launched today by Minister @SarahMurphyMS
💬 “This Centre will be a national hub for research and innovation, embedding the voices of the bereaved and those with lived experience.” – Professor Ann John
