Hot off the press: Accelerometer-assessed physical activity in people with type 2 diabetes: accounting for sleep when determining associations with markers of health...1/2
Excellent morning at @NewColBradford delivering some taster sessions in Sport and Exercise Science... Always interesting to see increase in competition when sweets are on the line #SportScience
TODAY WE HAVE BEEN TAKEN OVER!! Leeds Trinity University have taken over lessons in Sport, Psychology, Computer Science, Games Design, Sociology, Business and Law. Our students are receiving interactive sessions from lecturers and finding out all about uni life. 🎓😀
Huge thanks to @LeedsTrinity for their NCB TAKEOVER today! 🙌. This has been fabulous for our students and given them so much information about their #nextsteps 🎓😀
Excellent news for anyone using accelerometers to assess physical activity. #opensource #GGIR #research

Great to see this coming out, thanks to all involved
📢 A new technical note from @MarkWOrme, @katswincey, @Andykingsnorth et al. rethinks the "one size fits all" approach to intensity thresholds using a method of synchronizing #accelerometry with the incremental shuttle walk test using the MX approach.
Great way to start the day attending the @ProPASSconsort satellite event: Towards the 1st device-based guidelines for physical activity, sedentary behaviour & sleep. Lots of important disuccsion and information on device based physcial behaviours.
A busy morning hearing from: @M_Stamatakis on recent developments in ProPASS @fiona_bull on the WHO perspective on PA @JakobTarp on his experience with analyses of harmonised device-based data @blodgettjm @Matthew_Ahmadi_ on our proof-of-concept IPD analyses results!
A personal first, pretty cool... Great work from all the team on this one. Really nice to see others don't think its too bad either. #AcademicTwitter #research #PhysicalActivity #walking
