Bridging the research to practice gap for sarcopenia and frailty.

That’s the focus of our upcoming @ANZSSFR meeting in Melbourne, Australia.

We’ve developed an exciting program with a mix of international and domestic speakers at the forefront of sarcopenia and frailty research.

Don’t hesitate to secure your spot!

In our latest study in JBMR, we demonstrate that frailty, assessed using the frailty index, is a major risk factor for incident hospitalised and self-reported falls and fracture in community-dwelling older women.

For older women, higher dietary vitamin K1 intake is associated w lower long-term fracture risk. A regular daily vitamin K1 intake of ~1-2 serves of green leafy vegetables 75-150g may be important for lowering fracture risk. https://t.co/FJIgdeGrF9

Yesterday, I did a 305 km charity bike ride in 11 hours from Perth to Bunker Bay to raise funds for 3 mental health charities in southwest WA (20Talk, kaifella, blue tree project). It was tough cycling all day in the rain & wind, but well worth it with over $100k raised so far!

[Marc Sim @marc_p_sim]

However, these charities require more support to continue doing their amazing work, especially with youth and suicide prevention. Your donation would be greatly appreciated!

New @DeakinIPAN research study - Please share with family and friends worldwide!🌏

We're inviting adults aged 60 years and older to share their views on physical function 💪🚶

- How important is physical function to you?
- What support would you like in order to maintain or improve physical function?

Participation involves completing two brief, anonymous online surveys.

Really honoured to receive a 2023 WA Young Tall Poppy award. As scientists, it is absoloutely critical that we get our evidenced based messages out to community! This is especially relevant to nutrition research with so much misinformation these days! #YTP2023 #TallPoppy

[Edith Cowan University (ECU) @EdithCowanUni]

A big congrats to ECU's Senior Research Fellow in NHIRI, @marc_p_sim, who has been selected as one of the outstanding early career researchers to receive a @aipolsci Young #TallPoppy Science Award. 🎉#YTP2023
