Delighted to say my first paper, 'Tools for the identification of victims of domestic abuse and modern slavery in remote services: A systematic review', is finally published. It's #OpenAcess, too - go read it! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13… #PhD #PhDVoice #FirstPublication #CiteMe

My repeated experiments support the hypothesis that statistical analysis is vastly improved by good coffee and a sourdough cheese toastie. #PhD #PhDVoice #PhDLife #PhDTwitter #AcademicTwitter

Looking forward to an afternoon of thinking about #HealthInequalities and how these can be addressed for our local populations. #NHSSussex #ImprovingLivesTogether #Sussex #PhD

X was not happy that I shared our research on how #Trump is weponising global health assistance, harm and control the sexual and #reproductive #health and #rights of women across the Global South the week he was elected so I will do so again! Please share: doi.org/10.1080/174416…

📣In 2020, we published a review on the impacts of the #GlobalGagRule expanded by #Trump in 2017 on sexual and #reproductive #health and #rights in the Global South: Lane, S, Ayeb-Karlsson, S & Shahvisi, A (2020). doi.org/10.1080/174416… That article just became hugely relevant!

All this week I've been working on a PhD chapter on black women in American popular music, the fight for recognition and parity with their white male counterparts. News from America overnight, tells you all you need to know about why work to uncover such stories is so important.

What a devastating indictment of our country.

I'm so thrilled with the cover design for my first novel One Came Back #CoverReveal @TrapezeBooks #debut If a strange, uncanny novel set in both the Scottish highlands and Edinburgh sounds like your thing, it's available to pre-order now geni.us/OneCameBack

We're delighted to reveal a spooky cover of One Came Back by @rose_mcdonagh! He died twenty years ago… so how is he standing in front of her? This powerfully tense debut explores the depths of grief, memory, and obsession... Coming 27 February 2025: geni.us/OneCameBack

Domestic abuse is estimated to cost £81bn in a single year. The #Budget25 must be the first step to longer term funding to respond to domestic abuse. Every Government Department must prioritise #DomesticAbuse in their allocations, to meet the mission to halve VAWG.

With #Budget2024 confirming an increase in minimum wage I've updated my chart of UKRI minimum PhD stipends. From next April, PhD students in the UK will be around £1400 a year worse off than if they worked 37.5 hours a week on minimum wage

And of violence...

I hear too often people saying that Coercive Control is a non- violent version of Domestic Abuse. This is not accurate. It’s a misunderstanding of Coercive Control.



The @BLMedieval exhibition, Medieval Women: In Their Own Words, at @britishlibrary is truly remarkable. Full of insights, fascinating artifacts, and moments of pure incredulity at how little some things have changed. It's on until March 2025. Do go if you have a chance.

Thanks for an excellent day of collaborative research planning, laughter, exasperation and mutual support, topped off by this fascinating exhibition @britishlibrary Women are amazing! #PhD #PhDLife #PhDVoice #PhDTwitter #AcademicTwitter

First we did a bit of work, and then @BellaTomsett and I explored this incredible exhibition at the @britishlibrary Amazing how much has both changed and yet not changed from then to now 🤯

This is a dangerous decision for a social media platform, and will have serious implications for victims - especially those being stalked - and their safety. Enabling blocked users to see posts is catering to abusers and stalkers, indulging and facilitating their behaviours
