It was a busy but incredibly fruitful and inspirational few days in London. An absolute delight to be involved.
Absolutely intellectually spoiled these past 2 days! At ‘A New Odyssey for Public Engagement’ in London, leading thinkers in science, diplomacy & public engagement from 4 continents came together to explore how the ODESSI framework (doi.org/10.5281/zeno...) can guide global dialogues on science 🌍✨

The entrance to submitting articles to journals and open access admin is mildly scary - not gonna lie.
Feel like I need a PhD in publishing articles to publish articles from my PhD 😬

I'm transcribing. Research, actual research, lovely wonderful research. I forgot how much I enjoyed this. It's been a while. 😁

An afternoon of transcription derailed because the better half took my AirPods (with her AirPods) to work. Neither were required whilst she has been pulling teeth out of horses...! Sigh.

Ultra-processed foods are THE debate in nutrition right now, so you'd figure a new randomized control trial on UPFs would get lots of attention. But this study in Nature Medicine has only gotten modest coverage -- probably because it's findings are not so scary. THREAD

Split decision. On the one hand it's been fun trawling away for different countries policies on plant synthetic biology. On the other, I've just found a website dedicated to tracking said policies... I guess at least I have the background to sense check the tracker...

It has been a day of trawling US policy documents and so many have file names ending "FINAL." And you know somewhere, someone has a multitude of other files for the document named things like "v.1.4" "Final Final" "v.2" and "FINAL_absolutely_the_last_one"
