A great talk from Anna Webster about mixing personal with professional experience on our SPECIFIC parents intervention study #FASD @kafyp Dr Alan Price Penny Cook #EUFASD24

Very interesting findings in relation to the use of MRI to discriminate #FASD based on reduced volume of grey matter & key marker areas in the brain 🧠.

Alarming findings regarding the use of Fentanyl growing in parts of Europe with a high liklihood of severe teratogenic effects in babies. Different facial features to FAS, but a pattern is emerging about developmental disability. Reaffirms the need to explore prenatal exposures

Engaging birth parents in research- great multi method design outlined by Stewart McDougall from Fetal Alcohol Advisory Support & Training Team - shocked by fraudulent participants @eufasd2024

Fetal Alcohol Advisory Support & Training Team sharing progress on #FASD in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 @eufasd2024

Powerful insights from adults with #FASD - key messages are individuals want to be heard, understood, accepted and able to express their difficulties/ differences and diagnosis to obtain support - shared aims are independence, obtaining strategies for life to enable this 👏

#EUFASD24 Dr Alan Price outlining the change in cumulative to dimensional models when considering trauma in relation to FASD.

Future directions in FASD and early life adversity research - new paper to come out from international group of FASD researchers outlined by Dr Alan Price

Excellent talk from Dr Alan Price "People say it's all about trauma. They are wrong." Being both pre and postnatally informed is key - #PPNA Raja Mukherjee MBE summed it up - "It's really important to have data to back this up." #EUFAD Penny Cook @kafyp SalfordFASD

Sadly, the data we see here on suicidality and #FASD mirrors that found by the Fetal Alcohol Advisory Support & Training Team Clinical pilot. Rates are significantly elevated in both children & adults, with some countries reporting half of adults with FASD having been suicidal at some point in life.

Great to hear the #FASD cross-party debate in the Scottish Parliament earlier today, with support for the motion coming from all political parties #FASDAwarenessMonth scottishparliament.tv/meeting/meetin…
