The keynote of #UnionConf2025 reminded us why we’re all here.
Author @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social & TB survivor Henry Rider delivered an impassioned call to action, centering lived experiences and fairness as drivers of new research.

This week is about science AND solidarity #EndTB #WCLH2025

It’s here! Ready to be both devastated and inspired by John Green’s "Everything is #Tuberculosis." Let's educate ourselves and demand action, understanding that knowledge is the first step towards dismantling injustice.

Celebrating the brilliant Karen Wynn Fonstad, a cartographic genius & an inspiration to women in #geography! I recently learned she was the artist behind the "Atlas of Middle-earth," which brought #Tolkien 's world to life with stunning detail. web.archive.org/web/20250114... #Cartography #GeoSky

Evaluating the impact of #TB interventions is important. Our poster for #UnionConf2024 explores the effect of contamination in cluster randomised trials and potential solutions. Full paper coming out soon in #IJTLD!

Major international conferences like #TB #UnionConf2024 can be overwhelming, especially for #neurodiverse folks. The batik artists' work in the #CommunityConnect space was a beautiful and grounding reminder of the intersection between #art and #science

Honored to have presented my recent work on social contact and mobility patterns at #UnionConf2024. Where people go and who they interact with has implications for different #TB interventions
