My thesis examiners passed my PhD thesis with ZERO corrections. One of their comments was that 'it was extremely well written'.

How? By following a strict consistent structure throughout.

This is exactly how you should structure your results chapter:

Amazing lab meeting presentation & discussion led by @SydneyKu3 on intersectionality in academia.

She shared this academic wheel of privilege, which is helpful to think about.

@LancetGastroHep What about the cost to #IBD patients? We started work on evaluating the huge burden on patients with @BowelResearch but did not have the specialist resources to take it further. This was the result of a patient workshop

1/ Three years of Covid-19 in Northern Ireland: a personal 🧵

Exactly three years ago today, the first case of the disease which would be later named Covid-19 was discovered in NI, my home.

I have avoided infection since then. I remain a 'Novid'.

#OTD in 1940, the first mass deportation of Poles by the #NKVD began. Some 140,000 #Polish citizens were transported deep into the #sovietunion. Many died already on the way, thousands did not return to the country. #History #WWII #RussiaIsANaziState

[Jenny Grant @SilenceInPolish]

The first mass deportation of Poles to Siberia, Feb 1940 - which included my Polish gran, a schoolgirl at the time, and her family.

Her father would suffer a stroke, her brother would be drafted into the Red Army, and my gran joined the Anders Army. They were infinitely lucky.
