@philyoungandfit We mostly feed Baffi dog what we are eating - though he eats more red meat and bones than I do ;) he enjoys cows ears and trachea (though we don't know what chemicals etc are used to dehydrate these etc )

He is also intermittently fasting .... ;) but refuses cold showers ;)

@drjameswalters Good working with colleagues from @CNGGcardiff and @BDRN_org on this paper.

In AJE:

Missing data? Don't drop observations! A longitudinal study in @hrsisr shows multiple imputation with predictive mean matching performs well, is easy to implement, and helps recover unbiased results

My favourite thing to talk about is polygenic risk scores! 🧬

But until I can get out there and explain them IRL to fam and friends... this website is a great alternative 👇

It was fantastic working with @deanna_brockman @amitvkhera @aklfahed and others (Lia!) to develop it!

Incredible. Rather than working constructively with Scottish Government during pandemic on exams, ScotTories couldn't resist politicising it. They’ve ended up endorsing the best ever results for SNP. Douglas Ross and Ruth Davidson are a disaster.

Scotland: from 2pm today HPS launching new detailed dashboard on COVID-19 at local level & provide a colour code to understand prevalence by area.

Big steps ahead w/ pausing shielding & central objective is to get schools back full-time on 11 Aug 👏.

#COVID19 has caused upheaval across the science sector. This is the perfect time to #ReimagineResearch and not slip back into old ways.

Nice of Boris to send me a birthday pressie 🎉 😂

To increase transparency and make a necessary step forward toward precision psychiatry in the field of early detection, the following issues need adequate appraisal https://t.co/fqXeFhvpyF

If you stop investing in early child development, increase child poverty and make communities more deprived, increases in violence are not a surprise.

Wrote about some of the reasons for the fragmenting union (in context of Wales) a year or so ago. Feels like Covid has exacerbated those issues. https://t.co/ZzK1gnJbvB

What’s happening in Scotland is the biggest political story in Britain right now but it’s barely registering in the Westminster conversation.

Another Andrew Cotter gem.
