User, researcher, outsider: navigating multiple identities while conducting research on dating apps in Northern Ireland
Researchers must necessarily bring themselves to their fieldwork, and much has been written about the advantages and disadvantages of outsider and insider identities. This piece considers how the researcher’s multiple identities–as someone who both uses and researches dating apps, and an outsider in Northern Ireland–interact and affect the research dynamic, writes Fiona Morrison-Fleming

Building Breastfeeding Research Relations and Beyond: An Interview With Fiona Dykes
Professor Fiona Dykes is Professor Emerita of Maternal and Infant Health at the University of Central Lancashire in the United Kingdom (UCLAN). Fiona has a particular interest in the global, sociocultural, and political influences upon infant and young child feeding practices; her methodological expertise is in ethnography and other qualitative research methods. She founded the Maternal and Infant Nutrition and Nurture Unit (MAINN) in 2000 which she led until she retired from her full-time professorship in 2020. Fiona established the associated MAINN Conference in 2007. The MAINN conference is a 3 day, international, peer reviewed event held bi-annually in the United Kingdom and, more recently, in alternate years overseas (Sydney, Australia; Falun, Dalarna, Sweden; and Florida, United States). The conference draws together key researchers in the field of infant and young child feeding from around the world. Fiona was a founding member of the journal Maternal and Child Nutrition. She is author of Breastfeeding in Hospital: Mothers, Midwives and the Production Line (Routledge) and co-author, with Dr Tanya Cassidy, of Banking on Milk: An Ethnography of Donor Human Milk Relations (Routledge). She is also joint editor of several books including Infant and Young Child Feeding: Challenges to Implementing a Global Strategy (Wiley-Blackwell) and Ethnographic Research in Maternal and Child Health (Routledge). This interview was conducted on April 20, 2023, by Dr. Tanya Cassidy, and is based on a verbatim transcription and edited for readability
Our panel of experts highlight the most important research articles across the spectrum of topics relevant to the field of neurodegenerative disease management
Factors that predict progression in dementia are currently poorly understood. Here, Peters et al report the relationship between neuropsychiatric symptoms and progression to severe Alzheimer's dementia and death, using data from the Cache County Study. This population-based study began in 1995 and invited all Utah residents >65 years to participate. Over 5000 participants were recruited and assessed every 3–5 years. In this study, the 335 individuals diagnosed with possible or probable Alzheimer's disease were investigated and of these, 68 developed severe Alzheimer's disease during the study (1995–2010). Severe Alzheimer's dementia was defined as a Mini-Mental State Examination ≤10 or a Clinical Dementia Rating Scale score of 3 (severe). Presence of neuropsychiatric symptoms was determined using the informant-based Neuropsychiatric Inventory. Notably, >50% of participants had at least 1 neuropsychiatric symptom, with 25% having at least 1 clinically significant neuropsychiatric symptom at baseline. Multivariate Cox regression analyses (controlling for age at onset, disease duration, gender, education, general health and APOE-ε4 status) revealed that psychosis, agitation/aggression and clinically significant neuropsychiatric symptoms were predictive of progression to severe dementia and death. Presence of affective symptoms (e.g., depression) and mild neuropsychiatric symptoms were associated with earlier death only. These findings highlight the impact of neuropsychiatric symptoms on disease progression in Alzheimer's disease. Studies examining if treatment of neuropsychiatric symptoms modulates this relationship, warrant investigation. The nature and severity of neuropsychiatric symptoms in dementia varies, with these features occurring early in frontotemporal dementia. Whether a similar relationship is also observed in these non-Alzheimer's syndromes is yet to be determined
