Our Chief Investigator, Professor Julie Nightingale, presented our preliminary findings from workstream 2 (the analysis of national imaging workforce data from NHS trusts across England) to United Kingdom Imaging and Oncology (UKIO) Congress in June 2023, which enabled valuable links with important stakeholders to be made and the furthered the reach of this research. See the presentation slides that were delivered below:

Professor Bev Snaith and Dr Sarah Etty were guests on the radiography podcast Imagin’ That where they discussed the I-SWAP project.
