What seeds are you watering in your garden today? Are they seeds of compassion? Marcela Matos what a powerhouse. Her work has tested so many compassion interventions with different populations to help with wellbeing and flourishing

Prof Nathan Consedine kicking off our UQPsych Compassion Symposium for 2023. Provocative title and excellent science he is reporting on from his lab at The University of Auckland. We need to think more systemically on how we can help support compassion in healthcare.

Although Dr Alina Pavlova was not able to make today’s UQ Compassion Symposium, as she has a sinus infection, we still get to hear about her fantastic research! You can get the paper here pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34545471/

Expressions of compassion are as unique as those who give and receive it. The SCQ-i allows us to assess patient preferences related to compassion and tailor our care accordingly. #CompassionAndME #SCQ #personalizedmedicine #precisionmedicine #patientcentredcare
