A delegation of physiotherapy students from @UniversitySA are in town to gain “hands on” experience of Brunei’s healthcare system, with thanks to the @NewColomboPlan and their hosts @ubdbuzz. Yesterday they met my team’s “hip”-est member, 2nd Secretary Yan Kok. Excuse the puns!

Thank you to my dream team of supervisors for making this research possible @EvidenceBytes @MargaritaTsiros @KLBaldock
Think back to your childhood, do you remember climbing trees, exploring creek beds, and engaging in nature play? Do you think kids now get the same opportunities? Check out what parents and educators are saying about nature play and how we can promote it! journals.plos.org/plosone/ar…
