@SherrardEllie @charliewhittak Thank you so much for sharing Ellie! Looking forward to reading it

my unsolicited advice to people starting grad school in the fall: do not use this summer to “catch up” or “prepare”. you don’t need it. what you do need is a break

[Gina Cuomo-Dannenburg @ginacd1]

@MarkZobeck I had a colleague who received a dataset from a collaborator where all the data was entered into the comments in excel, rather than in the cells themselves. There’s also the collaborator who kept sending updated data with different column ordering, names, & a variety of languages

@vaspapa_ I am not 100% sure, I think the latest version does? The trial is free so it’s worth giving it a go though! Honestly cannot recommend scrivener enough. (And 50% discount if you use your imperial email). Starting with methods is a comfortable, familiar place to start too!

[Gina Cuomo-Dannenburg @ginacd1]

@vaspapa_ @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice Could not recommend Scrivener more for planning it all and keeping everything organised. It integrates so easily with EndNote too. I’ve been focusing on the methodology stuff, finished results and bullet pointing things still in progress. Spending time on more finished things

[Gina Cuomo-Dannenburg @ginacd1]

@vaspapa_ It’s so hard because there’s always something more you’d like to add so it never feels finished. But I’m just really ready for it to go out into the world now!

[Gina Cuomo-Dannenburg @ginacd1]

@vaspapa_ @ECritty Congratulations! I’m just about to submit a manuscript I started working on in 2018 and I cannot wait 😂

[Gina Cuomo-Dannenburg @ginacd1]

@vaspapa_ I would genuinely contact the IT people, they may well cover the cost, they’re usually really good at this kind of stuff. Ihope you get it sorted soon!

AstraZeneca has successfully created a good COVID vaccine. Many people I care about have received the AZ vaccine & I am so happy for that.

But they also seem to be doing the absolute worst at communicating. This is bad & risks scaring people away from *all* COVID vaccines. 🤦🏼‍♀️

[Azra Ghani @azraghani]

Incredible looking back at how much out team has achieved over the last year.

[Dr Ellie Murray, ScD @EpiEllie]

A very common WRONG claim I’m seeing lately: “once all adults are *eligible* to be vaccinated, anyone who isn’t only has themselves to blame so the vaccinated should’t have to take precautions”

But “eligible” isn’t the same as available or accessibility. We need more than that!

[Dr. Tara C. Smith @aetiology]

Strongly disagree with this article. Kids are definitely not "like your vaccinated grandparent." Here's why: a ragey thread.

[Gina Cuomo-Dannenburg @ginacd1]

@jsmilges It’s hard but so rewarding. For most of my students I’m their 1st openly/visibly disabled educator & those conversations I have with students asking about if they belong in academia, addressing their internalised ableism etc. are probably the most important thing I can teach them

[MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis @MRC_Outbreak]

This week we celebrate #imperialwomen with profiles of some of our teams role models.

Read more about @ginacd1 - PhD candidate @MRC_Outbreak who's research focuses on mathematical modelling techniques to understand spread of anti-malarial resistance

Can we stop the narrative please that a prolonged first dose strategy is going to breed super variants. The immune system is NOT like antibiotic resistance. 1/n
