Congratulations Dr Maria Dahm on being selected as a 2024 ACT Young Tall Poppy! Dr Dahm's research is investigating how doctors communicate with patients while searching for a diagnosis, especially when they're uncertain about a diagnosis.

As a PhD student I love this story by @tabithacarvan and look forward to the day I get to write my acknowledgements
Not many people will read your PhD thesis, but if you completed your doctoral research at the ANU College of Science, then Tabitha Carvan has probably read one small part of it – the acknowledgements. What she found is a kind of poetry in the science. science.anu.edu.au/news-even…

"Sometimes it takes a bit of time to get a diagnosis. We don't always have the time in ED. " I am back to coding clinician interviews about diagnosis, process and uncertainty in the Emergency Department and turning quotes into AI Art #AI #Art #EmergencyDepartment #diagnosis #time

Very cool research! More evidence for why #women need to be included in #MedicalResearch @DrMaryDahm
In the case of knee osteoarthritis, women are often worse off than men because they experience more pain and symptom severity. 🩺🦴 A new study by @Lwilso9 at @ANU_BioAnth has turned our attention to a neglected, potential culprit. cass.anu.edu.au/index.php/ne…
