@O2 I phoned you to fix my AppleWatch but somehow your representative managed to cancel my iPhone SIM so I was disconnected from the call and now cannot use my phone. I have DM-ed you with my details but nobody has responded. Please help reinstate my phone!

PhD position (Utrecht/Bilthoven, The Netherlands) Shaping the future of infectious diseases surveillance. with Albert Jan van Hoek at @RIVM More details: iddjobs.org/jobs/amazing-p…

Through #WAAW we're meeting our talented researchers within @edin_EID... Here's @lexanderHunt showing that a computer can now interpret a blood sample under a microscope without needing a human! Find him in @BachmannLab #AMR #AI #diagnostics #silentpandemic

When can phylogenetic methods alone predict the direction of transmission? We (@Chjulian, @katrina_lythgoe, @mdhall272, @BaxtrJames et al.) help to quantify this in our new @PNASNews study out today! doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

Attending #ESEB2022? Come and visit our stand! Helen Eaton, Commissioning Editor of #PhilTransB, would be happy to chat about theme issue ideas.

Reading the news coverage of the @UCU #FourFights strike, I get the impression that many people don’t know what University lecturers do (and why would they?), so here’s a thread on it. I’m a psychologist, so let’s start with the work of the average psychology lecturer. 🧵👇1/18

This looks awesome!

Two-year postdoc position available in my group in Edinburgh – apply by 14 March (elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…). Looking for a researcher interested in microbiology and evolution/ecology to carry out experiments on antibiotic resistance evolution. Great city & friendly team!

Thank you to all who contributed to our online "Modern Techniques in Modelling" short course @cmmid_lshtm: 35 participants from 16 countries, 16 tutors, 4d of infectious disease modelling...🤩made possible by @_nickdavies @yangliubeijing @rozeggo @BQuilty @SophieMeakin +...

Quite brilliant paper here characterising in-hospital transmission, with valuable and actionable results. See thread below for the TL;DR

Happy to see our analysis of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in hospitals using outbreaker2 finally out!

PhD position (Edinburgh, UK) Understanding the impact of vaccination on the spread of antibiotic resistance using phylogenetics with @katiito @StfnFlsch @hxnx_sam at @edin_EID More details: iddjobs.org/jobs/understan…

Help us to use phylogenetics to understand the impact of vaccines on antimicrobial resistance - a PhD with me and the inimitable @StfnFlsch and @hxnx_sam Applications open now - deadline March 1 @edin_EID @EdinUniUsher @EdiAMR findaphd.com/phds/project/u…

@TjibbeD True, but because the absolute number of reinfections is still probably very small (relative to the number of primary infections), then wouldn't any changes of severity be mostly attributable to the severity of primary infections (assuming a constant vax coverage)?

Well done @rozeggo and @kb_pouwels !!
