Shiny new project.
Do you have the time?

Yes: --> No you don't.
Always one of my favorite lectures of the academic year - nothing like lived experience shared by @brian_beh to really land with our @UONHealthScien1 Physiotherapy students. They were still talking about it in our tutorials today 🙏 @Coralie_English
