@ImmunoWellford I’m a big fan of your 2022 immunity paper, but I’m a bit confused about Figure 4. Is there a good way for me to get in touch with you? - Melissa’s boyfriend Sam (I don’t have a Twitter)

Brought my bike on the commuter rail for the second time this week and third time ever. Multimodal transit is so empowering, even if getting your bike situated on a train car is a little awkward

I just learned about the ADA Curb Ramp Request System, put forth by Boston’s Commission for Persons with Disabilities. This is a great tool to alert the city to ramps that need attention to help all members of our communities get around the city! docs.google.com/forms/d/18r8F7…

@AgeStrongBos⁩ participated in a #NACTO walkshop with ⁦@BostonBTD about safety improvements along Tremont Street. Something I learned: There were no brick sidewalks until the 1970s! ⁩

I am so excited to share my first published academic article! It is a qualitative comparison of the experiences of social connectedness and perceived isolation for older women living alone in their own homes and assisted living facilities. (1/2)

Mayor Wu has announced a heat emergency from Tuesday to Thursday! I recently heard a discussion about climate mitigation vs adaptation. For someone like me who frets about my carbon footprint, now is the time to face facts and plug in the window a/c for a few days.
