It was a lovely day for my annual visit to VetAgro Sup to give a lecture for the M2 One Health Managing Health of Populations. A small but dynamic group, I really enjoyed getting to know the students and discussing syndromic surveillance for #AnimalHealth and #OneHealth

Had an amazing week in Denmark 🇩🇰 Super busy, but it was great to catch up with old colleagues & supervisors @ucph.bsky.social , find & organize my samples 🧪, and make a plan moving forward 🤓
Thank you @sieravirus.bsky.social and the kittehs for hosting me! ☺️

Xippie *daring* me to move my arm. One-handed typing and coding it is I guess...

Smol and gorgeous grey tabby giving major side-eye, daring me to move my arm while she's settled on it in a tiny ball.

Beautiful gray tabby curled up in shrimp mode on the couch next her human's lap, with a computer on top. Her little nose and mouth are prefect and we see just a glimpse of back toe bean

No one and I mean NO ONE puts in more work than this one. Just *look* at the exhaustion.

Really need to step up my one-handed typing! Or start using voice-to-text? 🤔 😹

An exciting morning of exchanges between @anses-fr.bsky.social and the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut (FLI)! Going into the afternoon session now. A lot of exciting areas for #ScientificCollaboration are already emerging.

I'm so proud of Xippie for doing such a great job watching Cat TV for Science™️ 😍
(P.S. If your #cat also loves contributing to scientific knowledge it looks like the study is still taking participants!)

Huh, well look at that 🤓
It's taken 15 years of publishing but not too shabby 😁

Could not ask for a better supervisor 😹 She strikes the perfect balance of keeping me on my toes without #micromanaging, encouraging but also not afraid to express her disappointment if I don't meet her expectations.

Working in the office today (my usual #Monday) routine but opened up my laptop to find that Xippie has gifted me a few hairs so I don't forget her while I'm away 😹

I'm so lucky to have such a dedicated little helper as I finish the last big tasks for this revision. She's definitely helped me push through the most frustrating bits.

Nothing like the new year for a quick introduction 👋
I'm a scientist @anses-fr.bsky.social where I #research ways to improve & use data from #surveillance for #AnimalHealth. It's mostly #epidemiology but my background is #wildlife #ecology. I love #outreach & I'm a bit crazy about my cat Xippie 😸

Good thing our two-week vacation starts tonight, my supervisor is completely EXHAUSTED. Let's all spare a thought for management who apparently need this break more than anyone else 😹

Shout-out to Xippie and @sieravirus.bsky.social for helping me stay cool and not chuck my computer when #Rstats was getting on my very last nerves. Luckily a quick stretch and I was finally able to figure out why it was being such a jerk.

There was some great food for thought at yesterday's round table on #AnimalHealth and its crucial role in #OneHealth and #PublicHealth, featuring #WOAH director general Emmanuelle Soubeyran, Keith Hamilton (WOAH), Bruno Lina, and Pascal Hudelet (Boehringer Ingelheim).
