Excited to share our new study on how language barriers affect conservation science. We found that non-English research especially in Hungarian, Polish, Korean & Russian is undercited in English, despite local impact. Read the full paper: lnkd.in/gj7UDewC

Also pissed off with me

He’s genuinely pissed off with me about the weather

Hmmm

This is Ripley. He was nervous about taking the stairs. May have panicked a bit. 12/10

Lovely bittersweet microstory

Read the whole thread. Most of my research would be airbrushed out of all funding and publication in USA right now. NB good luck doing epidemiology research without the word 'bias'. #academicsky #episky

New meta-analysis shows media literacy & psychological inoculation interventions signifcantly & substantially improve (a) misinformation resilience (d = 0.60), (b) misinformation discernment (d = 0.76) and decrease sharing (d = 1.04). Great news for science! journals.sagepub.com/doi/epdf/10....

If anyone needs evidence that Solensia (arthritis meds for cats) works, here’s 18yo Pixie this morning.

Having abandoned my FB because it’s now a platform that can be used to incite homophobia I find this man’s double-speak extremely offensive & dangerous. The post leaves out some critical features that will increase hate crimes of violence.

Nippy but nice #Cambridge

Wonderfully atmospheric wintry evening in Berlin

5th January 2015 Early morning mist veils St John’s College Back Gate. From my book 'Cambridge - Town & Gown'. Available at www.cambridgebooks.co.uk/cambridge-to... and all bookshops in Cambridge.

Just the most playfully joyous production of #TheImportanceOfBeingEarnest imaginable. Cast members had fun with each other and the audience, and the whole crew responded perfectly to a medical incident. Big love overall Ronkẹ Adékọluẹ́jọ́, Sharon D Clarke, Ncuti Gatwa, Eliza Scanlen, Hugh Skinner…

Songs (and then the videos) that truly touched your heart from the first listen. For me this was one - brings tears to my eyes whenever I hear it....so different from the original and so powerful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg...

Huge thanks to @matteveritt.bsky.social for introducing me to the ‘Hark! - Classic Christmas Songs Performed in a Beatles Style’ album, which is now default Christmas listening. Streaming everywhere, mega-Christmassy, forensically accurate, and very silly👍⛪️🎄 youtu.be/pJXMKt2UYA4?...

“Ding dong! Merrily on high” is an insane way to start a song, and I respect it so much, but to then commit to the chaos by demanding your sopranos to sing “Gloria” with 33 syllables for just the letter “O” is king-level genius!

I'm launching a new career as a demotivational speaker (thanks to everyone who got in touch this morning - it's nice to hear it strikes a chord) www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

Smug ass shearwater with a double reflection. 🪶

Yeah I once bought an avocado because someone had clearly carried it all the way to the till only to abandon it, humiliated, among the sweets and chewing gum

Hey #AcademicSky I'm looking for lecturing / fellowship opportunities in the area of human-wildlife relations. Particularly interested in the anthropology of animal trade and #digital #multispecies ethnography.

Loving this paper 'Rethinking barriers and enablers'. How many thousands of weak research studies have reduced complex change to 'identifying and addressing barriers and enablers'? Here's how to do better! journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

Great #SciComm tips in this short thread from Neuro_Melody ‘When posting for the general public, if everyone can’t understand the science you’re communicating, you’re telling me that you don’t think they deserve to know’

Flu vac at work today. Jab itself didn’t hurt, but it did sting a bit when the nurse, checking my eligibility, gestured vaguely in the direction of my face and said ‘well you’re obviously not pregnant’ 😳
