The joys of being five layers deep into chasing a method through ‘as previously described’ references and hitting a dead end.

For the love of reproducibility, please detail your methods, or at least directly cite the method.

Surgeons living with #HIV can work safely.

@PHE_UK guidance on healthcare workers and HIV clearly states this.

#ItsASin showed us the results of HIV stigma. We're disappointed to see @DrHilaryJones perpetuate it on @GMB.

Let's stay educated so #HIV never stands in the way.

The vaccine passports debate is a perfect illustration of my new working theory: that the most important part of modern government, and its most important limitation, is database management. Please stick with me on this - it's much more interesting than it sounds. (1/?)

I've added Wuthering Heights to this video of a panda sliding around in the snow so I can watch it every morning when I wake up and have an instant morale boost.

NEW: Today Government has announced changes to blood donation rules, including the lifting of blanket restrictions based on gender or sexuality.

This move will help maximise those eligible to donate while maintaining the safety of the UK’s blood supply.

I have my preferred pronouns in my bio, it's one of two changes I've made to my twitter bio in the last 13 years. I consider it a very small kindness to colleagues, friends and students and this article encapsulates the reasoning https://t.co/AHGwQCkyHF

When people say "biologist should learn to code" they don't mean everyone should write their own RNA-seq pipeline. They mean that basic coding competence will make their day-to-day research tasks more efficient, and enable the exploration of new areas and new ideas.

@BpsmithUk @GreenJennyJones Thanks Bryan, this is a much better reference that does show cyst survival. The original assertion that Salmonella forms cysts however is still incorrect.

[Andy Day @andyday333]

This statement was repeated in the House of Lords by @GreenJennyJones. Prime example of why microbiologists should engage with policymakers through orgs such as @MicrobioSoc @SfAMtweets @SMC_London https://t.co/aTVTmW3W2u
