I just cancelled my Adobe licence after many years as a customer.

The new terms give Adobe "worldwide royalty-free licence to reproduce, display, distribute" or do whatever they want with any content I produce using their software.

This is beyond insane. No creator in their right mind can accept this .

You pay a huge monthly subscription and they want to own your content and your entire business as well.

Going to have to learn some new tools.

If you answer 'yes' to the 3 questions, you might have found the dengue 'panacea'🦟🤓🍀

A reminder that no matter how single you feel, you'll always be attractive to a mosquito. ❤️

Summer is here, and the mosquitoes are ready! So what are the best ways to protect yourself?

#Dengue is the most rapidly emerging mosquito-borne infection. Read about the likely impact of changes in vector densities & population demographics, increases in infection rates, and the use of vaccines on the landscape of dengue infections. @PLOSGPH https://t.co/i4Dn3uW2Lh

#Perfectionism: Have no fear of perfection - you'll never achieve it. Just do your best.
In research there is no perfect. Knowledge is contested. Reviewers disagree. There are limitations in all research. So do you best and get it done.

Trust your gut, not the dengue bearing mosquitoes.
Happy 😊 to share our work on severe dengue and the GUT! @UQ_SCMB
We show dengue targets the 🐀 gut and causes pathology, i.e loss of mucus layer.
Thanks to all the authors!
