So honoured my students nominated me for the Wellbeing Champion award at the University of Canterbury Student Choice Awards. Thanks to my students for their incredibly kind words, thank you to the UCSA for hosting. I was inspired by the stories told by other students via the nomination forms.

We need to get rid of using the word 'benign' to describe #endometriosis It has significant impact on the quality of life of patients and #benign undermines the battle our patients go through to get a diagnosis for a #ChronicPain condition with no cure

Honestly was so surreal to find out that I was awarded a Marsden grant to carry out research on #endometriosis It has been a pretty insane week. So excited to get this work off the ground!

Having a great time so far at #SRI2024 Always a great conference that encourages trans-disciplinary work and sparks great ideas.

The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Forum is my favourite part of conferences. They are always so insightful and #SRI2024 is no different. Always eye opening and forces you to examine whether the approach you are using is actually beneficial for creating a movement vs a moment.

Last day of #SRI2024, last poster session, already had several great conversations about our work. Amazing work as usual Katie Ellis! I am really proud of the work you are doing to amplify voices that need to be heard.

Figured I'd tag you properly Katie Ellis :P Always great to have our paper circulated so anyone who wants to read it, knows it exists. We publish #OpenAccess for this reason.

Latest article on #endometriosis patients is now published! Important read for everyone as it highlights the #homophobia and #transphobia still experienced here in #NewZealand tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

Second paper published in a week! How exciting! We carried out a survey with #GPs to understand their perspectives on #endometriosis, #patients, and the current #guidelines. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/he…
