Great panel discussion led by Prof Ross White at this mornings @NIBPS symposium. Interesting threads as to the meandering journey many of us take, perception of psychology, perception of males in psychology, passion for psychology and importance of humanity.
Really interesting talk from Karen Hagan highlighting community heroes, status and a desire from respondents for the avoidance of tokenism.

The Health Minister opened the 60th birthday celebrations for the Division of Clinical Psychology at the Foundations for the Future conference in Belfast.
The conference reflected on the impact clinical psychology has made and continues to make.
Fascinating afternoon session on innovation and wonderful to hear from Dr Frances Duffy talk about her entrepreneurial journey with 6d dementia and what it’s possible for psychology to do. @DCPUK @BPSOfficial @NIBPS
Prof Ciaran Shannon taking us through the range of research the impact centre is involved in. Inspiring to see the range and depth of projects and the value of exploring data.
After coffee and connection we move in to a facilitated converstion led by Gerry Cunningham. Gaining perspectives across generations. Gerry does a beautiful introduction about the importance of bringing ourselves into the work and the power of the human relationship.
How lovely to have our Chief Psychological Professions Officer @ProfNRooney speak at our conference. A past chair of our division no less than three times and always a massive advocate for our profession. @NIBPS
