This was really was something. @matildagosling’s @SEENPublishing report still has the power to shock. And @suladoyle is brilliant. After all the amazing authors she has championed, I would v much like to read her own book. https://t.co/AKblL9P2bl

Two years ago Hamas murdered 1,200 Israelis & took 251 hostage. Today, 48 hostages remain in Gaza. Many feel they have been abandoned. I spoke to some of their families for ⁦@NewStatesman⁩. (Written before both 2nd October & peace plan negotiations)

Grateful to see this layered and multifaceted discussion in the @nytimes by @EllenBarryNYT about recent work by @AlanLevinovitz and me on diagnosis and the Rumpelstiltskin effect (the therapeutic relief experienced on receiving a diagnosis)

This week’s Life On Mars looks at why researchers may be asking the wrong questions about social media and adolescent mental health; a new study finding ⬆️ well-being in British ethnic minority teens than their white counterparts; and links between fitness and later heart health.
