If hide and seek were an Olympic sport... It is like he knows I'm looking for him to do the spot on flea treatment

Everyone starts writing a paper with the Methods, right? I'm having a writing day and my family (who clearly need to go out and do something more interesting) think it is weird because by definition a paper should start with the Intro/Background.

If meandering and eating cake were an Olympic sport, I might do rather well. As it is not, I shall settle in now and watch other people do rather impressive things in fields I only vaguely understand.

The last few days, apart from attempting to dig myself out of my inbox after a week away, I have mainly been talking to people about new research ideas and eating lemon drizzle cake. It has been lovely. Here is a picture of Salem looking as pleased as I feel.

This morning's view versus this afternoon's. Both splendid in their own way.

The children agreed to one and only one day of visiting churches and cathedrals. But it was rather splendid and I think they've been talked round to a second day!

This trial was delivered by a simply fantastic team, adapting where necessary and expertly managing a huge scale up. Thank you! Really important findings, easy to implement, likely to reduce the impact of respiratory infections. @JaneVennik @UoS_PrimaryCare @nickafrancis

Turns out I'm constitutionally incapable of sitting still for too long so a beach holiday was possibly not a great idea. Luckily, there are some cliffs and ruins and other rather nice things to explore.

Thank you everyone for your kind suggestions. I now have enough to run several n-of-1 trials in the coming months to see what works!
Increasingly, I'm finding all day meetings online, like funding panels, conferences etc, give me the worst headache by mid afternoon. Anyone experienced the same and got any good tips (apart from tea and paracetamol)?

Is that a hint of blue sky here in Manchester today? Very excited to be at #BAD2024 @HealthySkin4All and to deliver a plenary talk on Thursday morning about Clinical Trials in Dermatology. But first, looking forward to chairing the @UK_DCTN AGM. Do pop along if you can!

About 9 of 10 times I'm totally fine on trains. But the other 1 in 10, so very travel sick. And clearly I've worked in research too long as to stave off the worst of the nausea, I've been planning a series of experiments to try to figure out what triggers it.

Another issue that came up at #CCR24 was the #WinRatio method - a specific approach to handling composite outcomes in trials. 1/9 #MethodologyMonday #93

I know peer review is hard and thankless but 3 of the last 4 trials I've submitted to journals have come back with reviews dismayed that the primary analysis was between randomised groups, not within groups before and after. And honestly, I'm not even mad, I'm just disappointed.
