I would like to leave X and move to BlueSky. Is the scientific community going to move there? I can’t see anyone there yet. If you have already, please let me know your handle.

From the 5 March to 2020 to 5 May 2023, almost **230,000 British people** died of COVID. Look at those two large waves before vaccines became available. Let's not let certain politicians erase what happened, and what a massive once-in-a-lifetime crisis and loss of life this was.

In light of this bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… I am reposting my thread about how we need to take Period pain MORE seriously not LESS. The solution is NOT to force girls in pain to attend school. The solution is to fucking address their pain so they don't lose days every month.

🧵ON PERIODS: At @cosmicshambles #NineCarols on Sat, I talked about how we are neglecting women's pain & bleeding. The continuing stigma and silence around periods is pathetic, wrong, devastating for women and economically nonsensical. Some facts. 1/23 theguardian.com/society/2022/d…

To the lovely guy on a bike on the Embankment who just intervened to stop a man hassling me, I didn’t get chance to thank you properly. So: thank you. There are amazing people out there #activebystander

Around 2 month ago I started as a research fellow at the @LambertonLab @UofGlasgow funded by @snf_ch. Looking forward to continue exciting #schisto research with these lovely people! Still intervention-focused, now combined with health economics and geospatial analyses. #beatNTDs

What an unforgettable #EGC2024! I learned a lot about the dry and alpine grasslands of South Tyrol ⛰️🌾🏔️ and talked with many grassland ecologists from all over Eurasia about their fascinating work! To top it all off, I won a Young Investigator Prize! Can’t wait until next time

TIP: To remind yourself that a child is in the car, keep a stuffed animal in the car seat. When the child is buckled in, place the stuffed animal in the front with you. This goes for furry friends, too! Get more tips: bit.ly/3S4PV5S

⚫ Never leave a child alone in a car. ⚫ Always lock car doors and keep keys out of reach. ⚫ Check the back seat when exiting your vehicle. Once You Park, Stop. 🛑 Look. 👁️ Lock. 🔒
