"These kinds of shocks are going to lead to a mass exodus … for minorities in particular.”

For my latest @science.org story, I spoke with early career researchers who have been affected by the federal upheaval and are concerned about what it means for their future.

Btw, Yes, I know this is a screenshot from the Mail. Yes, I know the Mail has an anti-migrant agenda, that's why they were so happy to run it. He made the comments. He made the "brain drain" argument so beloved of so called "liberal" racists. This isn't about the publication. It's about the comments

I saw them killed by sniper fire and drones. Why doesn’t Labour condemn it? Why do arms keep flowing in Israel’s direction? asks retired professor of transplant surgery Nizam Mamode

Feelings cycle of a great conference:
1) Furious at the current state of affairs (looking at you, UK gov)
2) Invigorated to try and do something about it
3) Inspired by fantastic speakers, colleagues and their research
4) Some hope in the world again

Mission accomplished @pmhauk.bsky.social #PMHA25

New to Bluesky! After becoming a bit disillusioned with X/Twitter, I’ve jumped ship
I’m fairly chatty, struggle to keep still and can be found playing/listening to music or outside.
I’m also a doctor in paediatric training and an NIHR academic clinical fellow in Brighton 🎈
