“Our technology took action.”
Meta's words justifying a permanent disablement of my Facebook account.
23:03: You have 180 days to appeal.
23:05: Your review was unsuccessful.
I hadn't appealed.
I've obtained my data and discovered evidence that hackers accessed my account,
carrying out activity in my name. The matter was referred to police, yet Meta offers no avenue for appeal.
When AI makes a decision about a person, who is accountable when it gets the wrong person?

Next we have @prof_uther from @MyBCU talking about some of the challenges of increased remote working post-pandemic - including fatigue and stress (and the factors underpinning those). #CYBER24

Bosses who get results shouldn't earn a license to be cruel.
Berating and belittling aren’t signs of tough love—they’re hallmarks of abusive supervision. Treating people like dirt doesn't motivate them—it undermines them.
If you can't model respect, you don't deserve to lead.
Fun day recording “On the sofa with…” a new podcast coming out showcasing research in the faculty of health education and life sciences at BCU.

How much was a 4* impact case study worth in REF2021? New analysis by @JonCollett5 suggests they could be worth between £480,000 (panels C&D) and £880,000 (A&B) over the REF cycle. Thanks @SimonRKerridge for review feedback and Jon for insightful analysis! fasttrackimpact.com/post/how…
Excited to participate as a leader in the event hosted by Race Equality Matters today raceequalitymatters.com/lead… @RaceEquality_UK
Excellent point!
The Declaration of Helsinki has required registration of ALL studies (inc observational) since 2013 (article 35) - researchers and journals who *say* they are following the DoH seem to have quietly ignored this (or not read it)... wma.net/policies-post/wma-de…

I cannot overstate enough how much I recommend avoiding making New Years resolutions and instead compiling your own bucket list. Frame your life by striving for positive experiences rather than solely through self-regulation.

Just tried out @Sage_Publishing's new Policy Profiles via @overtonio and it identifies policy citations from all your publications (not just those published by Sage) - well worth checking out policyprofiles.sagepub.com/

2 - Build a Sleep Rhythm
Sleep & wake up at the same time every day.
This allows adenosine (the chemical that makes you feel sleepy) to make you feel awake & sleepy at the right times.
How to build a rhythm:
1. Set an alarm
2. Socialise earlier
3. Don't sleep in on weekends
An excellent show of our PGR research at our Faculty PGR Winter Showcase. Exciting talks, stimulating discussion. Superb research from a group of inspiring professionals.

From horse sense in operating theatres, social work policy changes to lived experience simulation for clinical education- great range of talks so far at the @BCUHELS PGR Winter Showcase. Amazing work by our doctoral students with real impact on practice @myBCUresearch
