Jorinde's paper on "Pandemic over-Preparedness: Japanese public health experts and 1944 influenza" marks an exciting expansion of #histmed on the origins of pandemic planning.

Great to be at European Association for the History of Medicine #EAHMH2025 in Berlin this week. Have been busy & terrible at sharing on here, but having a lovely time! First #histmed conference since 2019 as I've been going to health/design stuff instead, and it's so nice to reconnect with people.

Big congratulations 🎉 to Jorinde Wels from KU Leuven for winning the #eahmh25 Pieter van Foreest Prize 🏆 for best student presentation!

Great conversations at the launch of Medicine on a Larger Scale in Berlin last night. @ctimmermann.bsky.social Sebastien Fonseca @doravargha.bsky.social Projit Mukharji Jeremy Greene me @ahlie.bsky.social Projit gave a stirring speech....

#EAHMH25 very interesting panel on Disease Ecologies with excellent papers on Malaria, Dengue, Influenza and Rabies. Reflections on health education, environment and industry.

What a phenomenal conference. Fascinating papers and keynotes, lovely friends, excellent food and a dream location. Huge thanks to @doravargha.bsky.social and the #EAHMH25 team for their stellar organization. Can’t wait for Prague 2027.

#eahmh25 has been a great conference - huge 🙏 to organisers. Seeing old friends & meeting new ones. And for me, finally visiting Berlin. I’ve mainly been conferencing but have also managed some mini field trips to Sanssouci, the botanic gardens (Potsdam & Berlin) & a wine bar in an old pharmacy ❤️

Medicine on a Larger Scale launched with an inspiring conversation and…. that’s a wrap for #eahmh25! Thanks to all who made this conference a truly wonderful affair. See you in two years in Prague! @eahmh.bsky.social #histmed

Open Access publication out in History of Human Sciences! 'Making Contagion Social' is a parallel history of epidemiological modelling and the sociology of imitation. I read Gabriel Tarde's work through the lens of Ronald Ross' 'theory of happening' to contest journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

I've been thinking more and more about revisiting my research on scientific collaboration between scientists in authoritarian regimes and 'the free world' during the Cold War. Ironically, I was planning to present a paper on it in the US this May...

🚨Job Klaxon🚨 Seeking a post-doc for 5.5 years (!) on our brand new @medicinewithoutdoctors.org project! The candidate will be working with @cathm.bsky.social and the wider team to lead on playful, design-based methodological collaboration. Deadline 31 March 2025 www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DMD146/p...

Thinking about the anniversary of something that was not an event, didn't begin 5 years ago, is not really in the past, and which defies established ideas and experiences of time. I do know for certain that history, it matters for epidemic thinking: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/h... #histmed

DL is today. The conference promises to be spectacular : eahmh25.org #health #histmed #histSTM #actuESR

DEADLINE!!! Don't forget to submit your paper or panel proposal for #EAHMH25 in Berlin by March 10. It's going to be a fantastic conference with keynotes @historyelaine.bsky.social , Projit Mukharji and Birgit Nemec. More information and link to submission site at eahmh25.org #histmed #histSTM

it is astonishing that this needs to be explained.

Can’t wait for this to come out!

From the German equivalent of The Onion: "Historian excited to be able to experience first hand how it all started back then." This is about the German conservatives collaborating with the far-right AfD; any similarity to other countries is purely coincidental www.der-postillon.com/2024/09/aufs...

Stand in solidarity with Cardiff colleagues, show your support!

I will not post much on this topic, but I'm the Head of Ancient History and Religion at Cardiff University. Our staff and students are nothing short of amazing. Those who know me will know that I'm doing all I can.

why would you need nursing, languages and ancient history to "leverage new academic opportunities, prepare students for an adapting world" (also, what is an adapting world???). Angering and short-sighted by all accounts. Solidarity with Cardiff colleagues www.theguardian.com/education/20...

the next version of every AI model (if there are any lol) is going to be trained on such a large amount of self-mockery it will be constitutionally unable to do anything except lie in bed and eat ice cream. this is the goal
