#dundeeuni — Public Fediverse posts

Great day at our Postgraduate Research Symposium at the School of #HealthSciences #DundeeUni !

21 presentations across such diverse topics as breastfeeding, the Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex, #MentalHealth literacy, stigma of mental illness, the nursing curriculum, #PPIE in #RCTs, skin to skin care, traumatic birth and... and... 👏

Great opportunity to welcome new students, and to see projects develop over the years.

#PGR #PhD

All the best to our graduates who graduated last week!

Personally, I am surprised each time how the same degree information leads to very different hoods being picked for me.

As I have no clue (evident by how I wear some 😅), any pointers to what they are, are welcome!

Potatoes are not standard content in my feed, but both as a German and living in Scotland, it is a crop I value 😂

For those for whom the Gillies Report* or the hearings at the #ScotGov Education, Children and Young People Committee** are too long, this is a really good thematic summary of the findings and evidence.

The topics and quotes invite reflection, not only at #DundeeUni. It is a bit of a questionnaire of "have you seen this happen?", "have you felt or experienced this?"
