Dr Jo Lane is a research fellow and clinical and cognitive psychologist at the National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health, RSPH. She has been a practicing psychologist since 2016 specialising in treating first responders and veterans living with post-traumatic stress disorder.

 

Since 2019, Jo has been working with a large multidisciplinary team of researchers across the Australian National University on the Our Health in Our Hands Project that aims to transform healthcare by developing new personalised health technologies and solutions in collaboration with people living with multiple sclerosis (MS), clinicians and health care providers. Developing her career as a researcher in multiple sclerosis, Jo’s interests intersect across clinical, cognitive and health psychology, epidemiology, translational research, communication in science and improving quality of life for people living with MS.

 

What a year 2020 has been!  As we come to the end of the year, it is a good time for us to recalibrate using four simple strategies: Breathe, Remove, Reflect and Reconnect. Please join us today to hear Jo talk about these four strategies and think about how they can be applied in your own life today and over the holiday break.

 

In addition, to help us Reconnect, there will be opportunities to share experiences of the year and compete in some team trivia!
