Does anyone in US public health🛟 or @iddjobs.org world have any part time work? I'm looking for at least 9 hours of work at a non-profit or university so I don't lose my progress toward Public Student Loan Forgiveness.

we have to bring TB into the discussion of climate change and climate change into TB programs. The vulnerabilities are shared. We should be designing interventions that improve resilience to both. A huge thank you to Matthew Saunders for his fantastic presentation at #UnionConf2025

come stop by my ePoster today at the #UnionConf2025 to find out if men or women experience TB at a higher rate in LMICs. The answer may just surprise you… 🛟

Only I could go chasing hygge in Copenhagen, going so far as picking a cafe that bans laptops, and end up wedged between two groups discussing graduate school aspiration and professional resume building. I hear you universe, I’ll get my act together.

“Wow, I saw in the last GTB report undernutrition is much less important for TB than we previously thought” I hear you say… Well, no. We think this is an underestimate, & as much as 28% of TB could be attributable to undernutrition – see our latest comment here: www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

I wonder if this push will expand to three vaccines over three visits, resulting in two additional revenue generating visits for the same protection…

Public health and science professionals in the US - what are some small actions you've taken to feel less hopeless in the current political climate? I've started a few small reoccurring donations, but looking to move beyond monetary contributions. 🛟🧪

Hello #IDsky - as PhD application season (in the US) rolls around, I'm asking for any leads for mathematical modeling labs that may be looking for students. I've got 8 years professional experience in transmission modeling and strong Bayesian background. Please let me know if you know of anything! 🛟

A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasn’t much reporting on it. But I’m not finished thinking about it! 🧵 An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 “blast-proof” windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.

While I would prefer that my historical research have less relevance, please read and consider what it was like to fall ill and die before germ theory. #histmed 🗃️ nursingclio.org/2025/07/21/d...

#Medsky🧪 #IDsky #Neurosky #Neurocovid #immunology #publichealth @nature.com A study of nearly 1,000 people revealed that brain ageing was not associated with viral infection status, particularly #SARSCoV2 virus, but cognitive decline was. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

crime is a public health issue and should be treated as such. police respond to crime, they do not lower it.

🧪 New research confirms climate change is a primary driver of worsening forest fires. The likelihood of extreme fire weather has doubled since the preindustrial era, contributing to a dramatic increase in burned forest area globally. #Climate #Fires

The Trump admin is erasing critical federal data - including climate trends, water quality, wildfire risk, public health stats, and pollution monitoring. When the data goes dark, the American lives are at risk. This is how To Sabatoge A Nation👇 zurl.co/slECM

There is evidence that 100 year hazards, like floods, are now happening more like every 1 to 30 years. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The deadly floods in Central Texas were caused by extremely heavy rain. Climate change is causing even more rain to fall during the heaviest storms.

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly. www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...

"This country has lost the most basic of all freedoms: the freedom that comes from being healthy." - RFK You know what protects and promotes people's health? Public health. Access to health care/health insurance. Health research. The very things the Trump administration is gutting.

“Over the past several months, the project has engaged more than 80 stakeholders, including clinicians, academics, public health officials, insurers &industry leaders, to assess how nongovernmental actors can defend vaccine science&use at a time when official public health channels are under stress”

As I cook my camping breakfast over and open fire, I find myself reflecting on the millions of women who use indoor cookstoves daily for their food preparation. These stoves are a source of indoor air pollution, a risk factor for many diseases, including TB.

shout out to the car rental person in Eau Claire airport who just casually dropped „that’s our free health care” while the blue angels were doing their test flights for this weekends air show. #whereisthelie

I think this means there should be absolutely no debate at my #SMDM25 presentation this afternoon, right?

only 24 hours behind our original departure time but Miss Lemma and I are on our way to #SMDM25 Ann Arbor here we come!

This is absolutely not normal. not okay. Protesting is not insurrection.

Need help calling your representatives about the rescissions package? Join one of our advocacy sessions this week! These sessions are open to anyone as a space to get help contacting your representatives or get support doing other forms of advocacy. tbfighter.link/calendar

This pride month, start throwing bricks again.

Come say, "howdy!", if you'll be in Ann Arbor for #SMDM25 🤠

No no no! These university leaders don’t get it. If you negotiate one on one you don’t buy peace; you just expose the whole sector and yourselves to more shakedowns. See law firms. The only response is to unite in collective action and fight the Admin’s illegality. www.cnn.com/2025/05/31/p...

Harvard Chan School is home to a wide variety of research initiatives, with faculty, researchers, and students all working together to improve health, prevent disease, and support well-being. We asked some of them if they could explain their research in 7 words.

It’s May 22nd and we had to turn the heat on in Southern New Hampshire because it was 60 degrees in our home.

Northwestern has not received any NIH funds since March. No written communication about why or what can be done. Thank you Ben Singer for raising awareness at #ATS2025

DOGE: prosecute, jail time This is horrific. the DOGE boys are not just doing destruction of biomedical research, they're doing fundamental attacks against humanity.

People should be calling their Senators and Members of Congress to push back on this (particularly if those folks are Republicans), and/but I wish this article had noted that the relevant provision is overwhelmingly likely to be removed from the bill in the Senate as a violation of the Byrd Rule.

are people aware that the payline for an NIH grant is currently the 10-20th percentile for new investigators? that is, only the top 10-20% of grants get funded (assessed by study sections, effectively peer review of the proposed grant). please compare this to any defense contracting process.

A fantastic read that explains endowments and why they are not the answer to the federal funding cuts in university research.

With nearly all of Harvard Chan School’s direct federal grants terminated, we are relying on philanthropy to power our research and support our educational programs. Every gift, regardless of size, advances our vision of health, dignity, and justice for every human. Support our work: hsph.me/whygive
