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

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.

Expressions of interest now open for (free) places at our symposium on potential for OPM-MEG for research in clinical populations. Friday Sept 19th @InstituteMH, funded by @BritishNeuro Further details here: institutemh.org.uk/events/event/2… @NottsHealthcare @MedicineUoN @SCAN_Lab

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…

This year's FRN summer symposium, hosted at @InstituteMH, focuses on translating evidence into policy in forensic settings, and features Professor Pamela Taylor. Now only weeks away (Fri July 19th). Still places available. institutemh.org.uk/research/foren…

.@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/…

The SSSP Early Career Event (online) is just one week away and a program packed with new research on psychopathy and callous-unemotional traits is waiting for you: check out the details and register to attend here: psychopathysociety.org/page/ECE2025

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

Combined effort w/@JohnTullyPsych @NottsHealthcare @InstituteMH @UniofNottingham, Alex Lewis @westlondonnhs and colleagues from @Healthinn_em on this. Current online version is author accepted manuscript (kudos to @Euro_Psychiatry for model of making AAM immediately available).
