@MBLBoP has been such an energizing & challenging 7 weeks - AMAZING for this historian to learn from & with such a stellar group! Can't wait to get back into my #history of #NTDs project! @MBLScience

More stunning photos from today's field trip to Chapoquoit Beach. Kudos to the BoP2024 "official" photographer @gonzaxsm for capturing these.

@KevinMalogna @monicaMedHist Also would recommend sections from Neil Kodesh, _Beyond the Royal Gaze_ on pre-19th c. Buganda; the Dawson ch. on smallpox in Kenya from Feierman/Janzen classic volume (3/n) -- and will keep thinking of more!

[MariWebel @MariWebel]

@KevinMalogna @monicaMedHist epidemiology per se, but I'd argue knowledge of/ideas about illness and its spread are pretty clear. I teach/lik ch's of Karen Flint's _Healing Traditions_ on the Zulu kingdom...(2/n)

@jackiantonovich nice work!

[MariWebel @MariWebel]

@Ethnography911 a thousand times yes. happening here, too. i can't explain exactly why i loathe it so much, but it stinks.

[MariWebel @MariWebel]

@jackiantonovich BRILLIANT.
