An excellent day of shared learning with @BristolStrata and @adept_2 PPI/ autistic advisory groups and researchers at @BristolUni Botanical gardens.
Special thanks to our @BristolStrata advisory group who celebrated their 6th year supporting all aspects of the study - from conception, now to planning dissemination. Thanks @Autistica for helping set up the group in 2018- still going strong!
Collectively, @BristolStrata and @adept_2 have randomised almost 600 #autistic adults - the largest RCTs of #MentalHealthSupport interventions for autistic adults ever done. Both studies are in follow up stage and findings will be known by this time next year. Watch this space.

In "Noodles, no nulls and numb skulls: threats to the future of Mendelian randomization" I discuss the triple threats of nonsense papers, methods no one understands that produce obviously spurious findings, & why MR studies now all have positive results youtube.com/watch?v=jQmlba_B…
Lovely to see some of @BristolStrata team at our Trial management group. Online joiners missed the delicious cake commissioned thoughtfully by our trial manager Leo Cotton. @MrJW18, you would have loved the Papadeli cake, look forward to next time!

WE DID IT. 4 weeks ahead of target and 12 more participants than planned (to respect commitment of those whose GP checks were in process whe we reached required 306). Now 12 months of follow up of our last participant before we work on results. More facts and figures to follow 🎊
DELIGHTED to announce that @BristolStrata has completed recruitment. 318 autistic adults randomised to sertraline/placebo. 🙏 to our participants, advisory group, trial team, sites, researchers, PIs/prescribers, funders, and supporters! @NIHRresearch @nhmrc @BrsTrialsCentre
Superb, and totally expected achievement! This extremely competitive fellowship will enable the lovely @lauralhull , already a leader in the field, to transition to independence and develop and lead the DR Hull group!
