Journal articles with supplementary appendices should be offered to download in two versions, one including all the supplementary files within the main PDF. It would also be nice if they had sensible file names by default:. Author et al (2025) Article Title; Journal Name.pdf.

Great PhD opportunity with the up and coming Dr @JonathanBriody at @RCSI_Irl. Structured training and broad supervisory team make this a great opportunity for someone interested in HRQoL & health economics more generally. Applications close end of June.

Delighted that @RajaniPokharel of @TCDhpm passed her viva yesterday with only minor corrections. It's been brilliant working with Rajani and I think there are very useful contributions to improving colorectal screening in her thesis. More publications to follow. Well done!!!.

This is an excellent opportunity and the Research Fellow level. If you're interested in improving Irish healthcare and have the relevant skills, then I don't think you could do better than applying to this.

I've just learnt that there's a key position regarding the HSE's drugs pricing that's been vacant for months and months. This follows the departure of a very able individual. It's essential that good people can be recruited and retained.

New paper led by @DucoMuelder of @ErasmusMCPH on the ethics of using race and ethnicity in cancer screening programmes. There's plenty more to write on this topic but this was an interesting project and I learnt a lot.

Really disappointing to see a patient advocate perpetuating falsehoods regarding the CervicalCheck controversy. This is either a very fundamental failure to understand the facts, or worse, bad faith. This amplifies us-and-them thinking between the public and health professionals.

I am outraged. As CMO @DrTonyHolohan stood over a decision to withold smear test results as part of the #cervicalcheck scandal. Lest we forget, women died & lives destroyed as a result, the fallout of which continues to this very day. And now this.

The absence of clarity around Ireland's cost-effectiveness threshold and it's implementation leaves discussions on drug pricing and access in the dark. This needs the attention of the Oireachtas health committee.
