Amazing!! Thank you!

Good start 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ I blame jet lag. I meant Bluesky 🤦‍♀️

Am so new to threads 🤦‍♀️ tags the same as #?

To the students whose essays I’m marking in an airport with HR on the background … I’m sorry. I’m going to need to read them again later.

And also yes, it’s this gripping. Don’t ask how many times I’ve rewatched it already. #heatedrivalry
Also also … how do I post to HR threads?

Rasmus Jarlov on Twitter writes: "There is nothing to celebrate. Moving from average tariffs of less than 2% on trade between the USA and Europe to 15% under today’s deal will inevitably lead to inflation. Almost everything will become more expensive in both Europe and the USA, and we will all be worse off. The economic illiteracy in the White House is doing serious damage to the West." Stylish Skunk replies: "I have a feeling you have 0 idea what you're talking about. In fact I know you do." Rasmus Jarlov responds: "Of course. I am former minister of trade in Denmark and you are an anonymous Twitter profile. You probably know a lot more than me. For sure."

It’s a very Terry Pratchett option - a universal front desk, probably next to the lost sock depository and wherever NHS letters end up

Spoke too soon

Oh no! I’m so sorry! I doubt I’ll survive day two

Tomorrow (Tue 1 July) I’ll be speaking @psioxford.bsky.social #PandemicSciences25 Conference on the Global Governance of Pandemics and Incorporating Science into Law, focusing on our work on the #PandemicAgreement

It’s wonderful to see how much enthusiasm there is for the new treaty.

Tee hee made it through day one of the #pandemicsciences25 conference and still healthy in the outbreak simulation!

Ooh will try and find you in the pm networking session

Well this is a rather gorgeous spot for a #pandemicsciences25 conference lunch! #heatwave #climatechange #pandemic

First panel of the #pandemicsciences25 conference. Really interesting discussion about early detection and spillover events in zoonotic diseases and how they can inform pandemic preparedness

Really loved the opportunity to learn more about the opportunities and pitfalls of life as an early career researcher from such amazing speakers as @peterhorby.bsky.social and others at the workshop before the #pandemicsciences25 conference

Something to print and have on my wall

UK is no better prepared: key takeaways from Covid inquiry’s test, trace and isolation module While a test was quickly developed, weaknesses in the early pandemic response included no plan for nationwide testing and ineffective contact tracing

We are no better prepared. Still.

We are long overdue for some floofiness on this feed.

Red panda happy hour starts now.

the fundamental disconnect between the manosphere and reality is that they are incapable of understanding that this is - according to every woman I’ve ever met - the sexiest thing a man has ever done

This week’s main story is about the budget and staffing cuts being made to public health agencies in the U.S. under RFK Jr.’s leadership, how those cuts will impact all of us, and some foolproof ideas for what scientists can do in the absence of totally superfluous stuff like, y’know, centrifuges.

Public health leaders, distrustful of RFK Jr., stand up project to defend vaccines Some key public health figures are taking an extraordinary step to try to shore up U.S. vaccination policy, feared to be under threat from health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

The degree if overlap between a AI generated virus and the experimental findings is incredible! One took 5 years, the other 5mins. But really demonstrates how AI can compliment traditional experimental methods, a great presentation from Dr Joe Grove #ukpsn25
