Honoured that my written evidence to the UK Parliament has been published.

It outlines 3 key actions that focus on earlier diagnosis, lowering long-term costs, and supporting continued employment for older adults, strengthening productivity and resilience in an #ageing society.

Proud to lead a global effort with 34 experts in the ICCARP Audiovestibular Group! 🌍📢

We recommend removing presbycusis (AB54) as a standalone dx + using AB51 for all acquired HL, with WHO severity codes.

Honoured to present today at the #MakeListeningSafe Workstream Full Group Meeting #WHO

Grateful for the opportunity to share insights on the links between #hearingloss, #depression, and how noise exposure drives #healthinequities.

It’s time to make the right kind of #noise 💥

Funny how things come full circle 🔄

A decade ago, I applied for a PhD with what was then a novel approach. It didn’t get funded ❌

Now, I was on the panel that funded a fellowship proposing that same approach—led by the mentee of that supervisor!

Good ideas find their time 💫

Thought I’d maxed out the academic ridiculousness scale submitting a paper at 10pm on a Sunday… then someone hit me with an email approving my ethics application at 23:38. Academia isn’t a job, it’s a late-night cult. #academiclife #night_owl_energy

How Nearly a Century of Happiness Research Led to One Big Finding Decades of wellness studies have identified a formula for happiness, but you won’t figure it out alone.

In a society where "situationships" have become commonplace, a century of research shows that the strongest predictor of happiness and life satisfaction is having deep, meaningful relationships.

It's no surprise we're in a mental health crisis.

Working on a paper about behavioural drivers for #hearinghealth protection in noisy jobs and accidentally ended up in a live case study 😬 - just spotted the worker in my kitchen using a very loud manual tool with no ear protection. 🤦‍♂️👂🔊🙉

Well, that paper can wait… 😅

International Consortium to Classify Ageing-related Pathologies (ICCARP) senescence definitions: achieving international consensus - GeroScience GeroScience -

Publication alert 🔔

Every individual ages uniquely.

We as a consortium believe the term normative ageing, the expected trajectory of #ageing based on data derived from a particular population, best encapsulates this phenomenon.

Images are everywhere in today’s media-age, able to shape our perceptions of the world, ourselves & others often more powerfully than words.

But if we repeatedly see images that offer a negative vision of ageing & older age, for example portraying loneliness, frailty & inactivity, what then?

Brené Brown studies human #connection—our ability to empathise, belong, and love. In a powerful @TEDx talk, she shares a profound insight from her research—one that changed her and can change us too. A must-watch on this #ValentinesDay. 💙 🎥👇
