Things that count as "doing your research": - advanced degrees - expert specialisation - years of running (or at least reading) original scientific studies Things that don't: - watching YouTube - anonymous blogs - following random shouty men online

Congrats @EddoWesselink on the first pub of your PhD! This project is a first and important step towards quantifying lumbar paraspinal muscle health in routine #MRI exams. I can’t wait to let this CNN loose on clinical #lowbackpain datasets. Well-done! go.nature.com/3zYM15F

Here is an open access explanation of how it started and how it will be evaluated. Led by Dr Loren Sher, who had an unwavering vision for a model that has taken off. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
Fantastic outcomes being achieved at the Northern Hospital Virtual ED with paramedics, nurses and emergency doctors working together to reduce preventable ED presentations. This innovation keeps patients at home and ambos on the road and that’s why we’re doubling their capacity.
