Important work Chantelle. Great to see it being used to be helpful for others!
Humbled to see my first #PhD paper included in the Lipedema Foundation's summary of some of the most critical research in #lipoedema (#lipedema) last year. It's so important to continue research in this area and I'm grateful that I am able to contribute to this through my PhD.

Check out our latest paper! 🤓📑 With the World Health Organization recommending reductions in added sugar intake, how many can you identify on a food label?
How many sugars can you identify on food labels? 🧐 🏷️ New NeuroHealth Lab research shows that: 1) Understanding sugar types predict food label use 2) Australasians are less able to classify sugar types compared to other countries Read about it here: doi.org/10.1108/NFS-02-2022-…

An exciting collaboration!
Just published! 📑🥳 Excited to have collaborated on this research project that found that those with #lipoedema experienced greater difficulty regulating emotions than matched controls. This shows why its important to develop effective psychological interventions for #lipedema

My PhD paper on "Stages of lipoedema: experiences of physical and mental health and health care" is out! Those with stage 3-4 (vs. 1-2) experienced a greater burden of #lipoedema, yet were less likely to receive appropriate healthcare support🤔 link.springer.com/article/10… #lipedema

Terrific to share this Chantelle.
We're thrilled to be able to give some of our incredible members the opportunity to present at our event with @YouthNeuroAU! This event is also a great chance for undergrads to learn about #phdlife & research opps in Vic, NSW & QLD. Please share with undergrads in your labs.
