Today the article that I co-authored with a wonderful group of women has finally been published! It takes a global approach towards racial diversity in paediatric medicine and provides action points that people can utilise.

Excellent news! @DFTBSkinDeep has long been advocating for this change of nomenclature and we have a great selection of dermal melanocytosis pictures on our website

There’s often a lot of rhetoric about respecting and supporting Australia’s traditional landowners. However these communities need our tangible support of their charities, businesses and vulnerable people.

Activism and engagement looks different for different people. This essay is an important read regarding the realities of life in Myanmar at present and the ways in poetry can be a mighty form of protest. worldliteraturetoday.org/blo…
The astounding @WeAreThePSC had a chat with me about @DFTBSkinDeep and the health inequalities faced by individuals from ethnically minoritised backgrounds. Have a listen. Hopefully it will inspire you to engage with, and support, more diverse resources

Delighted to have been part of @RCPCHtweets latest Milestone issue with @HeadSmartFellow discussing @DFTBSkinDeep. It’s so great to have the support of one of leading Child Health organisations in the world and is a testament to how important Skin Deep is.
Milestones is out now — in this issue, we meet the RCPCH Presidential candidates! We also look at the winter ahead, the College's diversity work, DFTB's latest project and how to deal with imposter syndrome. 👉 rcpch.ac.uk/milestones
Absolutely awful. We need less lip service from the government and more actual action ✊🏿
Nine Windrush victims died before getting a penny of the compensation the government owes them.
It breaks my heart how poorly this generation of black Britons is being treated by their own government - even years after the scandal was exposed.

Excellent collaboration between @DFTBSkinDeep and @pedsig!
What is your dermatology like #MedTwitter?
Now... What is your dermatology knowledge like on non-white skin?
Yep... us too.
So we’ve teamed up with @DFTBSkinDeep to help fix this through good old #MedEd!
More details to follow.
Thanks for the opportunity @MelaninMedics!
