Today we had our first early-mid career researcher learning development session presented by Prof @AmyBrodtmann @MonashSTM on how to get your paper published. Key take away - Make your science clear, convoluted and complex does NOT equal clever!😊#scicomm #EMCR #AcademicTwitter

🚨New study: Gray matter volume changes on MRI correlate with SEEG-defined epileptogenic zones in drug-resistant epilepsy. GMV might just be the non-invasive biomarker we've been waiting for. #Epilepsy #Neuroimaging #SEEG #Neuroscience doi.org/10.1111/epi.18671

Amazing work by my PhD student Dr Jessica Shipley in @JAMANetworkOpen showing that in women with moderate to severe #MultipleSclerosis disability, pregnancy does not impact disease trajectory. However, like in women with milder MS, relapse rates drop by upto 75% during pregnancy
Pregnancy in women with moderate to severe MS reduced relapse rates by 59% to 75% during pregnancy, increased them by 36% postpartum, but did not influence long-term disability progression compared to nonpregnant women. ja.ma/3VULHyY
