Is Long Covid psycho-behavioural or biological? The current state of evidence, 18th March 2025, David Joffe and David Tuller

https://www.kirby.unsw.edu.au/event...avioural-or-biological-current-state-evidence

An in person & online event (registration required) with presenters Dr David Joffe & Dr David Tuller @dave30th on Tuesday 18 March 2025.

That title will no doubt catch out a few from the BPS crowd who will be surprised by the content.

 

I clicked the title of the thread and fully expected to read something by the BPS lobby.

 

@dave30th will the materials be made public afterward? Will the event be recorded?

 

Hey I'm in Australia now--I hadn't realizerd they'd posted that. I'm pretty sure it will be recorded and available, but I'll know more later. Yes, the title sort of makes it sound like one of us is defending pathophsiological approach and the other defending the psychobehavioral approach I hope the description makes it clear that that's now what I'm doing. The title could be misleading in that senses, I guess. Truthfully, I'm not talking about what LC is--I'm talking about studies of treatments that are bad. We have an hour, so I think David and I will each have 20 min, and then 20 for questions. it's not a lot of time.

The next week in Melbourne I'm also doing an event at Emerge that I think will be livecast. Then I'm going to Perth for a few days to see Alem Matthees and his mum, Helen, and family. I felt it would not be cool to come all this way and not take the extra few hours to fly out west. I'm very looking forward to seeing them.

 

Pease express our gratitude and best wishes to Alem M athews . thanks .

 

Yes, he should know he is still thought of and we appreciate him.

 

yes, exactly.

 

I often think of Alem and what an amazing thing he did for us, despite being so incredibly ill.
