Hi all – a note that I'm hiring a postdoc to work on a project about cancer misinformation, feel free to pass it along to anyone interested :) I've had some queries about start dates, and I will consider applicants who can only start 2024. https://t.co/ruXqQwFfth

Every day I am in awe of international students. Doing a PhD in your native language and home country is hard. Doing it in a non-native language, in a different country and different culture is so much harder. You are not stupid. You are legends.

How did mathematical modeling inform our earliest understanding of #COVID19?

After several years we have a new webpage for the GLEAMviz tool, download links and resources.
Also updated software to support the new Apple M2 machines.

Questa settimana esce “I piani del nemico”.
Un racconto delle incertezze e delle decisioni sofferte di questi anni di pandemia per capire le complicazioni del processo che trasforma la scienza in decisioni.
La prossima volta saremo più preparati ?

Exciting day. After more than 20 months, and 15 rounds of projections and analysis, the Scenario Modeling Hub is meeting in person to discuss and evaluate the results of the Hub. A lot of science and PH insight to unpack.

Mobs lab will be always in my heart. Thanks for all these wonderful years of work, learning and laughs!

An excellent editorial in @Nature

"...Epidemics and pandemics can be prevented if research capacity is boosted for emerging infections between outbreaks, especially disease surveillance in low- and middle-income countries. There is no excuse for failure"

Join us now at NetSci 2022 on Blending artificial intelligence with heterogeneous data sources to study the evolution and spread of pathogens. Thanks for the great turnout! @NetSci2022 #NetSci2022

[NASA Webb Telescope @NASAWebb]

✋🏼 Galactic high five!

In Webb’s image of Stephan’s Quintet, we see 5 galaxies, 4 of which interact. (The left galaxy is in the foreground!) Webb will revolutionize our knowledge of star formation & gas interactions in these galaxies: https://t.co/tlougFWg8B #UnfoldTheUniverse
