Great article in the The New York Times It states - the female brain is rich in estrogen receptors, particularly in regions that control memory, mood, sleep and body temperature, all of which “work beautifully when estrogen is high and consistent,” Dr. Lisa Mosconi quotes For centuries too

SAS members in England have voted YES to give us a mandate for strike action. We also have a pay offer from Government, which we'll put to members via referendum. Until the pay offer referendum is complete, we won't call strike action.

Very excited by the updated line-up for the Advanced Kidney Care Symposium. AKC is a really critical part of most kidney patients’ journeys. This multidisciplinary day will update knowledge and skills, and consider best practice and potential challenges.

Thank you BBC Breakfast for having me this morning to discuss the critical CQC report on maternity services. I discussed the ongoing safety concerns and inequalities in care, affecting Black mothers. An urgent need for cultural competence, improved safety measures, and community

Great thread and couldn’t agree more. Complex and difficult decisions cannot be generalised by state lines! As a doctor specialising in complex pregnancies I know I can’t make these decisions for my patients - I can only advise.
