A man wanting to jump off a bridge in London was talked down by strangers who held him for an hour until help arrived. Look at that grip. Look at the care, compassion, selflessness, and determination shown by strangers to a hurting human being. We need more of this in the world.

What a privilege to present at #NPBIC22 to introduce the systemic inequities that may block families from accessing care. Fabulous audience engagement online and in the room. Thank you The Children's Trust for having me.

This, on death and even ICU emergence, is quite something even though the narrator isn’t someone you’d associate with this. Worth 3 mins if you have time.

What are forced-choice affect recognition tests really testing in adults with and without #TBI? Recognition of emotions or recognition of emotion words? Our paper suggests it might be the latter. journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.338… McMaster School of Rehabilitation Science
