Hi Bluesky! If you don't know me. I'm postdoc @yaledec.bsky.social with @floridi.bsky.social
previously BA, MSc, PhD @universityofoxford.bsky.social & policy wonk @bennettoxford.bsky.social. I 🔬 health data/AI policy. More: www.linkedin.com/in/jessicaro... & scholar.google.com/citations?us...
Were I a LinkedInfluencer, I'd post about what moving apartments abroad, largely on my own, when the lift in my current building has been out of action for 3 weeks and I don't drive, has taught me about resilience and self-reliance ... but if I ever become that person, I'll put myself in the sea.

Every now and then something comes along to remind me why I’m an academic and not something more dynamic. This time it is counting the number of injuries I have incurred whilst packing to move flat …. typing is apparently the only safe physical activity for me.

US service digitisation is utter chaos. The first flat I rented required an e-signed lease, but a security deposit paid by cheque (never written one in the UK - ever). Moving on Monday and I paid the deposit online, but had to print and hand in the lease IRL. Consistency? Never met her.

When the next 3 months look slightly overwhelming in terms of volume of work, wearing sartorial reminders of what really matters becomes necessary.

Calling ALL health data folk: Re UK Health Data Research Service.

The UK gov & Wellcome have pledged up to £600 million to create a HDRS.

Myself & an ace team have been tasked by Wellcome to assess the existing health data ecosystem & identify what is needed to support the HDRS 👇.

The gym in my building is currently closed. Fortunately the lift is also broken and I live in the 14th floor whilst the laundry room is 3 floors into the basement. So some 6 trips up/down 17 flights of stairs later & I’ve got clean clothes whilst getting a workout in.

I am just a girl, sitting in front of a spreadsheet, once again asking why 'wrapped content' is not the default setting for all cells.

Nothing like the pilot saying “obviously it’s very lovely here, but I hope you have your umbrellas and raincoats ready for when we land” for confirming you’re on the flight home 🇬🇧

Pinky: So Brain, what did you get up to today?

Brain: Well Pinky, I tried to take over the world, but then I got hyperfixated on how to use structural equation modelling for system design for 15 straight hours, forgot to eat, and collapsed exhausted at midnight.

Pinky: same again tomorrow?

Running dangerously low on Yorkshire Tea. Active rationing is occurring. Fortunately, a reconnaissance mission to England is planned for next week. Otherwise: digital ethics, analogue anarchy.

Turns out that you can, in fact, first do things bigger in life than dating the boy on the football team AND then marry the man on the pro football team

Sam Altman keeps saying the quiet part out loud - valuations are too high, there's no biz model w/copyright, there's not enough electricity, LLMs aren't the path to AGI - yet govts and AI cheerleaders seemingly bend over backwards to ignore that fortune.com/2025/08/20/u...

Do I need to spend all day working on fellowship applications? Yes.

Will that be made infinitely harder by the fact that I have Swiftlag from staying up all night for #TS12 announcements? Also yes. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

This August is less salt air, rusted doors, meet me behind the mall, and more why do you write like you’re running out of time …

The relief of finally finishing a paper that has been stuck in my brain, like a very annoying thorn in my side/ stone in my shoe, for MONTHS really knows no bounds. Time for some fiction and Ice Cream.

Tell me how I am supposed to cure myself of just-returned homesickness by dancing around to too loud music when it’s 33 degrees INSIDE even with the A/C on ?!?!? 😭😭😭😭

Had an absolutely ace time at home indulging in fun, family, and NHS activities up and down the country. Now back to @yaledec.bsky.social for more adventures with @floridi.bsky.social @claudionovelli.bsky.social @emmiehine.com

Back home in England and found these gems in the primary school archive. Turns out there’s not much difference between 9/10-year-old me and now—except the only theatre I ended up in is a lecture theatre.

Next time tech-determinists inaccurately accuse me of being tech phobic, imma show them this …

"AI won't save healthcare on its own" is my current mantra. I explain why in this interview with Artur Olesch conducted after HIMSS in Paris last month: aboutdigitalhealth.com/2025/07/16/a...
AI won’t save healthcare alone
Medicine is shifting to an algorithm-centric model – and we’re starting to treat data, not people, says Jessica Morley of Yale. Continue Reading
