Meeting colleagues who generously spend "brain time" with you is just fantastic 🙇

Also, first paper coming out any day. In the paper we describe the general modelling approach and methods underpinning LifeSim Childhood with an illustration of how to use the model

Really happy to be in York once again for the annual in-person meeting of our grant to develop a better approach to long-term modelling of intervention effects on adolescent mental health and wellbeing:

It was nice to be back and to discuss #Microsimulation, cohort data, #MentalHealth outcomes, and to meet the collaborators in person!

Now going back North and looking forward to the coastal views.
