The abstracts get published in JOPP usually several months later (@bopa.org.uk - why does that take so long?) The visuals... Not unless the authors put them out there. They are in the conference app but you need to hand over £300 for that!! There are 174... I'm probably not picturing them all!

This set of tools are SO useful. Somehow that haven't captured the imagination of the on the ground pharmacists... @bopa.org.uk so much could be done here. Even more if wider datasets could be produced

Friday evening at #BOPA2026 is poster night. This year is another record breaking year for posters. I'll be sharing some thoughts on that later. But for now - here is my poster. doi.org/10.6084/m9.f...

#BOPA2026 Dare I ask if there is protected funding in secondary care. Should the Q have been sector agnostic? Most of us were disappointed that the Cancer plan didn't recognise the increased pressure caused by the numerous new approvals. There is no measure of delivery of any of this.
