Excited to see my first publication out during #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek showing the effects of low-quality employment trajectories on common mental disorders in workers in Sweden. Special thanks to @NuriaMS2 and the @WorkConsortium for all your support!https://t.co/qri9bKGqZC

[SJWEH @SJWEH]

Swedish register-based study finds 1st and especially 2nd generation migrant workers following low-qualtiy employment trajectories have an increased risk for developing common mental health disorders when compared to workers with Swedish backgrounds

[Jonathan Stokes @DukeStokes]

Our article looking at 'How could 20-minute neighbourhoods impact health and health inequalities?' is available Open Access now. Lots of health/health inequality claims, but still a lot of question marks on the pathways remain... @theSPHSU @PubHealth_BMC https://t.co/LURNF5Kr9Z

Delighted to see so many attendees and listen to the amazing speakers yesterday at our SSM ECR day in Glasgow! Couldn't have been done without our local team @CarolineVaczy, @GedeonEdit, @AmyStevenson97 & our volunteer Micaela Calderón and the wider SSM ECR committee 🙌

[ECR SSM @ECR_SSM]

We’ve wrapped up our #ECR day for #SSM2024! Thank you to all our speakers and panellists for sharing your knowledge with us - and thanks to all of you who attended! 👏

Bring on the conference tomorrow!

So excited to be at the #EPH2022 @EPHconference @EUPHActs in Berlin.

Today is preconference whole learning day on Precarious employment and health.

Thanx @theobodin @NuriaMS2 and rest of colleagues!

So it turns out something very unusual happened with who decided to have babies during covid... and it's not what you might think! Learn more about the #LoCoEffect (and its implications for future public health) in poster DB.86 from @MOOberndorfer et al. at #EPC2022 👶🍼👩‍🍼

[Rachel Thomson @Rachel_Thomson]

Had a fantastic and inspirational four days at #EPH2022 in Berlin with Team @theSPHSU 💭 🇩🇪 So much to think about as we all head home, and so many exciting conversations had + new connections made. Roll on Dublin 2023! 🇮🇪

[Rachel Thomson @Rachel_Thomson]

Great to present our work on how far #income explains the effect of #unemployment on #mentalhealth at #EPH2022 this morning! Thanks to the other excellent speakers and audience for v. insightful & interesting questions. Happy to discuss the work further (paper in press!) 🧠💰👷‍♂️

[Jen Boyd @jenniferevab]

As #COP27 is well underway, I've written a blog outlining the need to consider health inequalities when implementing actions to tackle the climate crisis to ensure we don't worsen health inequalities in the process @theSPHSU @SPHSUSystemsSci https://t.co/0e1hM2tw3C
