Our Head of Lab Network Partnerships @hogkar joined @janemetcalfe and @melsalm at this year’s @SynBioBeta Conference for a conversation about global health and why biosecurity research, surveillance, and governance is crucial for the health of everyone https://t.co/PvogOTZOC4

[Issues in Science and Technology @ISSUESinST]

“It is increasingly unrealistic to base a biosafety system primarily on lists of known concerns and standardized practices,” write @melsalm & @SAWEvans in response to @davidrgillum’s essay in ISSUES. https://t.co/f7mODqDroI

Video of plenary panel I joined for #cugh2023 recently uploaded. Watch me reimagine global health, critical med anthro style.

While the science & practice of global health has evolved, advances have not benefited many vulnerable populations in Lower and Middle-Income-Countries. Dr. Melissa Salm joins a plenary panel for @CUGHnews to address some of the key overarching questions

So proud to be part of the @concentricbygbw team - the discussion we’re having about the intersection of Caring/One Health/Biosecurity is so compelling. #SynBioBeta2023

Thanks to @melsalm @hogkar @janemetcalfe for the brain food today 🙌

#pathogensproject conversation about rebuilding the public's trust. LISTEN to @guspalpogeng!

“One of the feelings that I have about what's happening in all of these discussions […] is that, as scientists, we are not listening. The community is responding in a way that, 'We ...

[MelSalm @melsalm]

I appreciate the call to reckon with the politics of science as a human practice — this is fundamental to maintaining/rebuilding public trust, which in turn is fundamental to risk reduction #pathogensproject

[MelSalm @melsalm]

@DavidRelman: the idea that science is or should be neutral, pure, amoral (aka not intertwined directly with issues of public welfare and state policy) … is immoral #PathogensProject

[Anthropology News @news4anthros]

Parasite-Host relations are asymmetrical. But what forms of parasitism has global health inherited?

Wonderful plenary discussion today at #CUGH2023 covering the impact of everything from artificial intelligence, politics, funding issues to global health terminology and pandemic preparedness and much more as we reimagine #globalhealth for the future.

#CUGH2023

[MelSalm @melsalm]

Arguably the greatest honor in my life thus far: to be a fellow panelist (!!??!!) alongside deans, directors,
and former ministers of health, to share my perspective as an early career academic on what GH should encompass in the 21st century #cugh2023

[MelSalm @melsalm]

Amazingly, I’m going to this…
