Had the opportunity to present my poster today at #iscb46 where I have detailed the methods we've been using to identify respiratory virus outcomes in the #OpenSAFELY secure analytics platform from @bennettoxford.bsky.social
🚨 Funded PhD opportunity 🚨 Work with large-scale electronic health record data from #OpenSAFELY to optimise vaccine effectiveness estimation for respiratory viruses.

Where else is a girl gonna wear her Open Safely tattoos if it’s not when meeting EBM royalty at their grand abode?!! @bennettinstitute.cam.ac.uk

Risk them thinking I’m nuts (true!) but what did they expect?!! 😂

Can’t see the FT piece but where does @bengoldacre.bsky.social and his team’s #OpenSafely fit into this?

Found some #OpenSAFELY tattoos in the envelope…….Am I supposed to put them on to read the book?!
& why has no-one else mentioned them? 🤔

Been away for a week and came home to exciting post 😊
It’s amazing what happens when you fill in the form 😂
#OpenSAFELY
Can't believe #opensafely not using an open video platform like @odysee.bsky.social 😅
I was trying to watch @bengoldacre.bsky.social ‘s video about #openSAFELY yesterday and had to prove to YT that I wasn’t a bot. (The fifth time I tried, I wasn’t considered threatening.)
Thanks also to @brianmackenna.bsky.social (I think) for the openSAFELY book that arrived this morning!
You too could read our OpenSAFELY book while eating snacks. We still have a few copies to give away! Here's how to get one: www.bennett.ox.ac.uk/blog/2025/01...

💡Did you know?
#OpenSAFELY is an open source, highly secure analytics platform running across the full pseudonymised primary care records of 58 million people in the NHS. 🇬🇧
#MedSky #ResearchSky
The Causal Inference in #IDEpi Workshop provided great insight and discussion thanks to input from various speakers! @wjchulme.bsky.social of @bennettoxford.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk introduced us to challenges in estimating vaccine effectiveness in routine data #OpenSAFELY (1/3)
We really enjoyed welcoming so many people to our OpenSAFELY Community Symposium in London last week. We're busy making videos of every session, so there'll be an archive for those of you that couldn't make it
While we work on that - here's a teaser :)

Hearing from the magnificent Miriam Samuel at the OpenSAFELY community symposium.
Tour de force on her analytic work on weight gain during pandemic for different population groups.

A reminder of the new-ish BMJ rule requiring data & code sharing.
Increased transparency of published work, in line with what @bennettoxford.bsky.social has been doing and @bengoldacre.bsky.social advocating for for many years.
What a privilege to have become part of this team 🙂
#OpenSAFELY
The #OpenSAFELY Symposium afternoon kicks off with @kamranabbasi.bsky.social from @bmj.com talking about open science, evidence based medicine, and the importance of sharing analytic code.
How #OpenSAFELY works! Dave Evans, Steven Maude, Tom Ward, Simon Davy, Catherine Stables and Freddie Longfoot from the @bennettoxford.bsky.social with another excellent session!
Great presentations on use of #OpenSAFELY from @venexia.bsky.social, @wjchulme.bsky.social, Andrea Schaffer and Ed Parker at @bennettoxford.bsky.social Symposium
Our @bennettoxford.bsky.social #OpenSAFELY Symposium is underway, with @bengoldacre.bsky.social kicking things off!
Good morning from London!
We’re excited to kick off @bennettoxford.bsky.social’s OpenSAFELY Community Symposium.
The atmosphere is fantastic, the speakers are outstanding and we’re looking forward to insightful discussions 🤓💡
#OpenSAFELY
#healthcaredata
We can’t make @bengoldacre.bsky.social’s #opensafely conference tomorrow, but if we were, we’d ask the NHSE speaker what public evidence there is of any progress at all since the original announcement that OpenSAFELY would be used for research beyond covid?
Yes! "We want a sense of normalcy back ... BUT not at the expense of the lives of our friends, families & neighbors" Heed the call to #OpenSafely #WearAMask www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2020/05/20...
