@wvschaik performative bollocks to keep the further right of the party happy. I’m sure they’ve dressed it up as stopping the import of new variants etc though.

Wondered why I wasn’t getting notifications on mastodon. But like an eegit I had it set to mentions only. 🙈 Everyday is a learning day!

Taken from Twitterverse but important for the #virology community. Glasgow virology workshop, 30th March 2023. Alain Kohl shared details. Hoping to go myself again, always a superb meeting!

I am very much looking forward to welcoming Prof Sharon Peacock to the University of Birmingham on Tue 23 November for her Grace Frankland Lecture: 'Pathogen sequencing: time to shoot for the stars?'

This lecture celebrates the memory of Grace Frankland (1858-1946), particularly her research in microbiology and public health and her advocacy for gender equality in science.
