What practical use is a violence risk prediction tool in clinical services for psychosis? Our new study in @TheBJPsych examines this for the OxMIV tool, w/wider learning for key issue of bridging the gap to real-world usefulness for prediction tools doi.org/10.1192/bjp.20… (OA)
An excellent afternoon of talks and healthy discussion, putting the forensic research and policy landscape to rights on a Friday afternoon. Many thanks to speakers, attendees and @InstituteMH team.
Very much looking forward to our Forensic Research Nottingham Summer Symposium next week, on afternoon of Friday 18th July, in person @InstituteMH. Great lineup of talks from @PamelaJaneTayl1 @MayuDeshp and @simonshackett. Come along institutemh.org.uk/events/event/2…

Somewhat to my surprise, a new systematic review of the suicide assessment model, OxMIS, is just out. We developed OxMIS as a risk model to complement clinical assessment in schizophrenia-spectrum disorder or bipolar disorder at any point in their treatment pathway
Our new @bmj editorial discusses the new NHS England guidance on suicide prevention. Recommendations include collaborative safety planning/risk management.
Some parallels with forensic mental health where collaborative risk assessment is an emerging area of work but with uncertainties about how to implement in practice. Issues of insight, involving other agencies. Protocol of our ongoing review: bmjopen.bmj.com/content/15/5/e…

.@tdgstephenson and I blogged for @Mental_Elf on this rare beast of a randomised trial for a psychological intervention in an offender population: mentalisation-based therapy for ASPD, for men on community probation nationalelfservice.net/mental-health/…
Post-production version of our review of mechanical restraint in inpatient psychiatric settings now up, open access @Euro_Psychiatry cambridge.org/core/journals/…
Our review of international use of mechanical restraint in @Euro_Psychiatry. We found a striking variation in prevalence, w/patterns vs other restrictive practice led by local policy/provision rather than differentiated evidence, in which big gaps exist. shorturl.at/dK9b7
Delighted to report the EmpaMEG project, which builds on pioneering innovation in OPM-MEG/7T MRS @UniofNottingham & collaboration with @SCAN_Lab, is now active. Recruiting postdoctoral researcher in coming months- DM me if interested. More details here: shorturl.at/4bzMH
🧵New study alert: We've developed OxSET, a risk model to assess risk of repeat self-harm after someone presents to hospital with a self-harm episode. Developed and validated using Swedish national data from over 50,000 individuals. @BMJMentalHealth #MentalHealth #SelfHarm
Co-presenting with my @forensicrg colleague @eleanor_hind for the Crime in Mind Webinar Series on Tuesday April 29th on new technologies and potential interventions in forensic neuroscience. Details for sign-up here: crimeinmind.co.uk/forensic-neuro…
