Health is a human right. Being able to safely move our bodies is critical for both physical and mental health. Yet access to safe, accessible opportunities to be physically active are not universally accessible

Wonderful to see the Times Higher Education headline this story on the #UNSWScientia Program. @simon_rosenbaum is a fantastic example of how supporting researchers leads to impact, and an improvement of our lives on every level. There are over 165 similar examples! 🏆🏆🏆

Personal touch is the magic ingredient in a programme credited with keeping research hotshots on home base. @JohnRoss49 reports timeshighereducation.com/news/cultivati…

Can lifestyle interventions for mental health be delivered digitally? Our latest meta-analysis in JMIR Publications examines the evidence from 61 RCTs of online exercise, diet and sleep interventions for various dimensions of mental well-being: lnkd.in/eCKuEUib

"Wide dissemination of the nonevidence-based claim that exercise is 1.5 times better than other first-line treatments may lead to direct harm to vulnerable patients, who may delay seeking specialist support or stop taking medications/attending therapy” journals.humankinetics.com/view/journals/…

We dont talk about how to conduct research in complex humanitarian settings. How did we weather the storms in @C4C_MHPSS ? A quote from our recent piece “… the most accurate and relevant data emerge from ability to remain flexible and maintain strong connections.”

New paper coming soon: “Is there a need for mental health informed goal setting in physical activity?” Huge thanks to Darren Wagner, @ScottGGoddard @clark_eey @mckeon_grace @simon_rosenbaum @stewartvella & @MeganTeychenne 🙌 Will be open access in MENPA: sciencedirect.com/journal/mental…
