A very helpful series of best practice statements in #videofluoroscopy #VFSS to help reduce unwarranted variation that may negatively influence patient care. Thank-you ESSD Margaret Walshe link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Almost five years since this group was established & hands down the most friendly, collaborative & inspiring group of people I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Can’t wait to find out where our 2025 adventures take us. Happy New Year all 🥂🤩🤗

No better way to celebrate our five year anniversary (& finding our way back to social media) than a paper from our very own Joan Ma & Alan Wrench highlighting the unique application of ultrasound in understanding swallowing kinematics 🤩

P.S. Whilst we are quiet on social media, please know that the #SLT #ultrasound group are still busy working away on LOTS of exciting projects in a bid to robustly translate ultrasound into clinical practice. Do get in touch if you too are developing projects in this area 🤗🤗🤗

Entering the 6th year of #international #ultrasound group collaboration with two new members with two shiny new projects 😍😍😍 A warm welcome to Ciaràn Kenny 🇮🇪 & Dharshini Manoharan 🇦🇺 - we can’t wait to follow your #voice & #biofeedback studies 🤩🤩🤩

Three years, 177 participants, 12 countries, a multitude of new colleagues, collaborations, and 97,000 words after it all began… it’s time to share it all back on the #NHS frontline. Thank you National Institute for Health and Care Research for trusting me with this most incredible PhD fellowship opportunity.

Another highlight of my #NIHR fellowship was getting to work with Dr Helen Newman (& @trache_phd) on her #NIHR fellowship 🤩😍 A unique, if not surreal, experience using novel methods to understand the impact of #ultrasound artefact on upper airway assessment. Amazing work Helen.
