GM.Digital is recruiting participants who identify as Jamaican or have Jamaican heritage to take part in two in-person 2-hour research workshops either online or at the University of Manchester.

We are working with the University Hospital of the West Indies and the University Hospital of the West Indies in Jamaica to develop this questionnaire. This is part of the DATAMIND project, funded by the Medical Research Council.

If you would like to take part in the workshops or have any questions surrounding the workshops or the CMHDS project, please get in touch with [email protected].

Last Thursday, Tom and Mia from the GM.Digital team were invited to the third working group of the CYP PPIE National Collaborative at St Hilda’s College, University of Oxford.

The event brought together young people, researchers, PPIE professionals and national organisations for a day of shared learning, discussion, and priority setting.

It was great to share our learnings from our research with young people on EN-CAMHS, as well as our ongoing work with Youth Connection, a research advisory group for young people interested in mental health research.

It was also valuable to hear about others’ work with young people, discuss the potential impact of the forthcoming social media ban on PPIE, and explore how we can create meaningful, transparent, and sustainable opportunities for young people to be involved in research moving forward.

It was a great event, and we’re really excited to see where this collaboration goes!

When a clinician needs answers at 3am, seconds matter.

In the latest episode of our Digital Health Seminar Series, Alexander Hovis introduces Eolas Medical, an AI-powered clinical knowledge platform they say helps healthcare organisations give their teams instant, trusted access to internal knowledge.

Alexander walks us through what Eolas does, why it matters for frontline decision-making, and gives a live demo of the platform in action, showing how it can help clinicians find critical information fast, when it counts most.

Will digital mental health tools replace therapists? Do young people use digital tools more? Are all digital tools safe?

These are some of the questions the GM.Digital team recently asked people at a university festival in Manchester to see how they perceived digital tools when it comes to mental health.

The results were really interesting, and show how organisations like GM.Digital can help to make digital tools safe, accessible, and effective.
