I've finally met @adewilliams.bsky.social in person at the #UKSBM2025 conference, where he discussed how Community Pharmacy can help change population behaviour. Not often you see pharmacists in these spaces & Ade raised visibility of the profession and made us all proud. Thanks, Ade! #pharmacy #rps
This week I presented some of my PhD research at the #UKSBM2025 Annual Scientific Meeting. Fantastic experience and great to hear about so much exciting research!

Plus a special mention to the delicious chocolate and cherry vegan dessert at the conference dinner. #UKSBM2025
On my way back to London from #UKSBM2025. Such a well organised conference, with the usual strong and varied scientific programme - credit to all involved in its organisation 👏. As always, a real pleasure to meet and catch up with familiar and new faces and find out about everyone's exciting work!
Really enjoying the #WomensHealth session at #UKSBM2025 this afternoon

Accords with intervening to change the balance of healthy vs less healthy products in retail settings being a central component of Nesta's recent Blueprint for halving obesity in the UK blueprint.nesta.org.uk/policy-packa... @nestauk.bsky.social @david-dearlove.bsky.social #UKSBM2025
Exciting trial findings from Terpsi Panayotidis @nestauk.bsky.social. Reducing availability of less healthy foods in shops, resulted in lower % of HFSS foods purchased. Good to see some of the much-hoped promise of 'availability' interventions being realised www.bmj.com/content/377/... #UKSBM2025
Really interesting talk about cancer care pathways at today's #UKSBM2025 from @marestupinan.bsky.social focusing on #Intersectional #BlackFeministThought

I've been so impressed with the vegetarian lunchtime offerings at #UKSBM2025 at the Mercure Hotel in Bristol.
Today: delicious dal makhani, paneer curry, vegetable pasta, plus salad and fruits and desserts.
Thank you to the catering team!
Fantastic, wide-ranging keynote from @francesmair.bsky.social @uofgshw.bsky.social on the huge burden of multimorbidity, its implications for interventions, and the need for smarter, kinder and more accommodating healthcare systems #UKSBM2025
Very powerful video shared by @francesmair.bsky.social in her #UKSBM2025 plenary on the challenges of managing multiple health conditions, particularly on the poverty line.
We have to tackle poverty&inequality to improve our public health.

Our session on sustainable diets at #UKSBM2025 !
Thank you to Tess Davis for chairing, and co-presenters Rachel Pechey and Tess Langfield.
Emma Garnett with intriguing findings from an online experiment that higher availability of plant-based options increases selections, but notably also more selections when plant-based aren't matched to meat-based options. Concludes this needs following up with real-world trials #UKSBM2025
This new RCT found no evidence that dishware size affects intake, consistent with most of the more recent evidence base #UKSBM2025
Does dishware size influence energy intake? Excellent, clear presentation of a RCT by Tess Langfield. Started by highlighting that much of the evidence base polluted by the questionable work of Brian Wansink. We discussed this scandal here: www.bmj.com/content/363/... #UKSBM2025
Great talk from Rachel Pechey @oxprimarycare.bsky.social of an overview of reviews of micro-environmental interventions for health and sustainability. Concludes should use larger and more mature (e.g. fewer hypothetical outcomes) health evidence base to build equivalent for sustainability #UKSBM2025
Poster time #UKSBM2025
Really engaging presentation from Sarah Shaw on the SALIENT consortium. Revealing the potential misalignment of research, policy and organisational priorities, and the need for organisations to justify partnering on research, and much more. All rings true from some past experiences! #UKSBM2025
Great call to action in community pharmacy research from Ade Williams @adewilliams.bsky.social #UKSBM2025
20 years of UKSBM (that's the UK Society for Behavioural Medicine)! 🥳 I was lucky enough to be at a fair few of these. Here's to the next 20 #UKSBM2025
Community Pharmacy as Community Health Champions. Inspiring keynote for the afternoon from Ade Williams #UKSBM2025
Nice to see @eppi-reviewer.bsky.social supporting this review in helping prioritise ~400,000 database records #UKSBM2025 @eppicentre.bsky.social
Excellent presentation by Tess Langfield on a wide-ranging scoping review of interventions to increase public support for policies #UKSBM2025
Hopefully UKSBM can move their society accounts over here in the near future. I don't really want to 'join the conversation' on Meta and X thanks... #UKSBM2025
Symposium on optimising public support for population and planetary health policies. Excellent, clear presentation on measurement of public support by @mariavgoodwin.bsky.social #UKSBM #UKSBM2025
Great to be at #UKSBM2025 in Bristol! Fascinating prize-winning presentation by Floor Christie-de Jong on increasing cancer screening uptake in Muslim women @katierobb.bsky.social
