Very excited that this is finally out! Some of the hardest thinking I've done about spatial context (and viral dynamics) in a very long time!
Fab working with @GTNOwen, @david_j_manley, @laurahowe_epi & @mendel_random as ever! Now out and OA in Health and Place!

#WorldMentalHealthDay personally serves as an anxiety-inducing reminder that I once did a talk about trying to kill myself that's been seen by like 1m people.

It isn't worth suffering solely because you can imagine things being worse. Please reach out.
The audacity of Bristol Uni, celebrating its history of student activism in the alumni magazine while deducting 50-100% of pay for staff involved in, erm, ‘direct action’. The hypocrisy. @Bristol_UCU
Wow! Monitoring figures for 31 March 2023 drop from @USSpensions, and show a *£7.6bn SURPLUS* and pre-cut benefits costing *just 21.8% of salary*! Expect these figures to change in the full valuation, but we're bang on track for a historic win. #ucuRISING https://t.co/W6h0Nmb4Fb
@USSpensions@RedActuary@FirstActuarial Shout this from the roof-tops! Your non-striking colleagues, who walked past your picket lines and undercut the action, need to know that your efforts saved one of the major benefits of working in UK HE. #ucuRISING
"the editors quit
why would they do that?
they don't like that we're charging researchers over $3000 for open access publication
how else are we supposed to keep the lights on around here
maybe the 3.2b in profit we made last year"

"Climate change is a threat to human well-being and planetary health. There is a rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all. The choices and actions implemented in this decade will have impacts now and for thousands of years."
Are you into the role of climate and health - how can we better measure and track short-term events? Get in touch! #ALSPAC@CO90s#dailyphenos https://t.co/IzOvOobFAv
2 minutes on Newsnight last night to say:
The government has deliberately created a crisis as a campaign tool
They have stopped processing asylum claims, letting numbers build up, in barges or hotels, just so at the next election they can say they’re the ones to fix it #r4today
📢🚨new #job @GeogBristol & @GamblingHarms: Research Associate in Geographic Data Science, for the new research project on ‘The spatial signatures of gambling behaviours: access to online vs. brick-and-mortar facilities'.

Need to apply multilevel modelling in your research? In our two-week online course, @AndrewJDBell introduces you to a range of basic and advanced multilevel techniques using MLwiN or R. https://t.co/JBHyZBxA7u
In HE only VCs, their direct underlings and a few other high paid staff will benefit from this.
Meanwhile the same managerial class in HE have been joyfully ripping up your pensions for the last decade with no real justification.
Stay angry!
Really great to be out with health science colleagues, and see the solidarity today with comrades from the @BMA_JuniorDocs, @pcs_union, @Bristol_UCU and many others on College Green.
Great to be reminded of our united struggle!
Solidarity forever. #ucuRISING
