Thank-you so much! I can't help but reflect today on some not so encouraging conversations I had early on in my academic career w senior academics about whether it is possible to be a successful academic working less than full time with children. It is. I did. You can.

Women in academia being introduced bingo fulfilled today: - she’s receiving this award because she deserves it, not just because she’s a woman - she’s a mother - she’s not been awarded this earlier because her personality is so mild and humble Can we try harder pls 🙏

#ESPID2023 Working in neonatal medicine in Sierra Leone, lack of access to blood cultures was a huge frustration. But this wonderful talk by Tinashe Mwaturna shows that keeping a BC program running has been a great challenge in her setting. Maybe not a panacea

Absolutely 🔥 session on diagnostics for babies and children in low resource settings - QI, novel technologies, primary care and post-mortem tissue sampling. So much food for thought! Thanks @flicfitzgerald @TinasheMwaturu1 @MarykeJN & team

I saw the news story on twitter about plans to pharmacists to dispense #antibiotics without a prescription. I didn't believe it at first, and this would clearly take us backwards. We need to stand against this one folks #ip2022conf thetimes.co.uk/article/chemis…

HRH visited the neonatal unit where she was given a demonstration of the @TheNeotree System, which empowers health workers in low resource settings to count & care for every newborn. UK aid is supporting the system due to its potential to save many babies’ lives.

To be clear: I now understand that although honey *on* the yoghurt is acceptable, honey *in* the yoghurt is not. I deeply regret my actions

I must apologise to my daughter for mixing the honey into her yoghurt this morning. I realise this behaviour was unacceptable and caused great distress. Please respect my family’s privacy at this difficult time.
