Using Behavior Change Theory to Identify Drivers and Barriers for Antifungal Treatment Decisions: A Case Study in a Large Teaching Hospital in the East of England, UK
ConclusionsUnderstanding the basis for linked clinicians ’ prescribing behaviors for identified drivers and barriers may inform interventions on AFS programs and contribute to consistently improving antifungal prescribing. Collective decision-making among the MDT may be leveraged to improve clinicians’ antifungal prescribing. These findings may be gen eralized across specialty care settings.

Meaning of Family Reported Outcome Measure (FROM-16) severity score bands: a cross-sectional online study in the UK
Conclusion
The FROM-16 score descriptor bands provide new information to clinicians about interpreting scores and score changes, allowing better-informed treatment decisions for patients and their families. The score banding of FROM-16, along with a short administration time, demonstrates its potential to support holistic clinical practice. (Source: BMJ Open)

Developing a multivariate prediction model for the detection of COVID-19 from crowd-sourced respiratory voice data.
Conclusions: Deep-learning can detect subtle changes in the voice of COVID-19 patients. The sensitivity of our model shows a significant improvements compared to the antigen test (84% vs. 56.2%), yet with a lower specificity (83% vs. 99.5%). As an addition to other testing techniques, with a simple voice analysis this model may aid to fast diagnosise COVID-19 cases. (Source: European Respiratory Journal)

Need for establishment of multi-disciplinary management guidelines for children with CHARGE syndrome on respiratory support; 10 years experience in Cambridge University Hospital (CUH)
Conclusions: Numerous co-occurring challenges identified. Establishing a dedicated MDT within a tertiary setting, enabling a whole systems approach may improve access, care, and outcomes. Establishment of management recommendations to prevent pulmonary complications is essential. (Source: European Respiratory Journal)

12 Neuromodulation of intracranial physiological recordings and behaviour
Valerie runs research groups across Cambridge and Shanghai and holds professorships at Cambridge University and Fudan University. She is the current president of the BNPA. She focuses on interventional psychiatry anchored on mechanisms underlying self-control and repetitive behaviours relevant to addictions and compulsivity. Her research group focuses on identifying anatomical and functional biomarkers sensitive to invasive and non-invasive leading towards precision neuromodulation.
