Today, on Trans Day of Remembrance, we honour the lives of trans and non binary people lost to violence, discrimination, and hate.

We must continue to build a world where all trans people can live with safety, dignity, and pride.

You matter. You are loved.

Brilliant book and a must-read for anyone working in healthcare and /or research.
My books for #bookmedsky #booksky #medbooksky 🤩

‘Unheard: The medical practice of silencing’ looks at who gets listened to in medicine & who doesn’t & how it exacerbates health inequity. It’s about amplifying the voices of the most marginalised in healthcare & research to improve care for everyone.

We all exist somewhere on a spectrum of health. I moved from healthy, to mild ME, to moderate-severe ME over two decades. I recognise and acknowledge the societal disdain that intensifies the further you move along that spectrum of disability. Solidarity with our very severe ME siblings, always 🤍

In awe of the work @putrinolab.bsky.social and colleagues are doing in the US.

Deep phenotyping/endotyping, intelligent selection of drugs to repurpose, rapid agile trials - targeting immune dysfunction, viral persistence, hormones etc

Should give hope to the whole #longcovid and #ME communities.
we’re on for this hell of a emotional day!
