The road to UIC2026

Honoured to share the stage with some of the world's leading researchers in cannabis medicine at this year's AMCA UIC Conference.

The Victorian Government to use Virtual Emergency Departments to provide short-term or “top-up” prescriptions for ADHD stimulant medications.

This opens many questions about how this is happening while increasing scrutiny is being faced by other Schedule 8s.

There is a reason saunas are a thing.

Saw a take today framing healthcare’s biggest problems as operational.

That misses the point.

The real problem is access.

When access is scarce, people will accept friction, delays, and poor UX just to be seen.

This means many things, like places you go, the people you see, the things you do.

Also, it is thinking about how you can respond differently in those trigger situations so you are not on autopilot and just think "ah f, nothing has changed".

[Chad Walkaden @chadwalkaden]

If stress, anxiety or depression came into your life in a hard time.

Remember, your thoughts are like a series of patterns.

So, when your circumstances change, intentionally approach your days differently.

If not, staying stuck in familiar patterns becomes more likely.

"Patients won’t engage with digital health” is becoming dated.

Our latest OnTracka reports show structured dosing sessions at >3x monthly protocol requirements.

This is also not driven by nudges or notifications.

Something deeper is being chosen, not prompted.

@chrisboettcher9 BOOOOOOM!

[Chad Walkaden @chadwalkaden]

OnTracka has centered on empowering patients with the philosophy: "Your Health, In Your Hands."

As we kick off 2026, we're evolving to reflect the world-class compliant research engine that we've built.

This next chapter is about Turning Treatment into Evidence.

@BhushanManmath This didn't age well....

If 2026 is a year of abundance and overflow, be ready to stomp through the mud.

Heavy and excessive downpours of rain don't leave your garden looking the same.

Don't expect your life to be any different.

[Chad Walkaden @chadwalkaden]

Heard some great advice about goal setting for 2026.

The thinking is that if you don't start with gratitude with what you achieved this year, then irrespective of what you achieve in the next 12 months, you'll never be fulfilled.

@kbushnell1975 @piersmorgan @englandcricket Correct. Absolute shambles.

Know he celebrating for England and good luck to them.

But, it is rubbish

[Chad Walkaden @chadwalkaden]

@MichaelVaughan Is it really the wicket? Come off it!

You can't say all-time bowling attacks in the past didn't cause batters a nightmare.

But, there was patience and strategy in batting.

Now, it is hit and smash.

People may say they love it. It will wear off and be the end of cricket

Have finished a decade of fasting 72 Hours every quarter without missing.

Additionally, within the last 90 days, did intermittent fasted on average 33% of days.

The major lesson : Like anything in your health, it is about anchoring your discipline to an unwavering belief.
