🌍 We made it to Geneva! After arriving this morning, our @uni-muenster.de #GlobalHealth course visited @unhcr.org to hear about their history and current work #WithRefugees. Then there was time to walk along the lake before dinner! @eilewomisa.bsky.social @epibreze.bsky.social

Our #GlobalHealth elective led by @eilewomisa.bsky.social & @epibreze.bsky.social is underway! Thanks to @globalhealthde.bsky.social for speaking to the students about #GLOHRA! We finished the day with a thought-provoking interactive session on decolonising global health 🌍

No time to rest! After the excitement of #DGEpi2025 last week, @eilewomisa.bsky.social & @epibreze.bsky.social are busy preparing for this year’s week-long #GlobalHealth elective, which kicks off today! Stay tuned for updates on what we get up to at @uni-muenster.de and in Geneva!

Special thanks to our organisation committee (including @baumeister-se.bsky.social @eilewomisa.bsky.social @andkarch.bsky.social @heikeminnerup.bsky.social @ruebli.bsky.social) and all of the helping hands who helped make #DGEpi2025 possible!

🆕 We recently published a study on how contact behaviour during the COVID-19 pandemic differed by vaccination status or immunity (vaccination + previous infection) status using data from 2 large German studies: #COVIMOD and #MuSPAD. Read more 👉 doi.org/10.1186/s12916-025-04211-x @uni-muenster.de

Yesterday's IMMIDD Inaugural Symposium "From Chaos to Cohesion - The Future of Infectious Disease Modeling" at @uni-muenster.de was a success! Thanks to our invited speakers for providing valuable insights and to the audience for joining in the discussions! www.uni-muenster.de/news/view.ph...

That's a wrap on the transmission dynamics module as part of the master's programme of the #NOZGEKA project! We had a lovely 2 weeks in Mzuzu, Malawi. Thanks to the fabulous students and lectures as well as MZUNI and UNILIA for having us! @eilewomisa.bsky.social @epibreze.bsky.social

Week 1 of the transmission dynamics module was a success! We're enjoying getting to know the first cohort of Master's students of the #NOZGEKA project and are looking forward to seeing their progress over the course of their degrees! www.nozgeka.eu @daadworldwide.bsky.social @uni-muenster.de

We're excited to be heading back to Malawi to coordinate & teach a 2-week module on transmission dynamics in the first cohort of Master's students specializing in infectious disease #epidemiology as part of the @daadworldwide.bsky.social funded #NOZGEKA project. Follow along to see how it goes!

New publication alert! We looked at how social contact behaviour changed in Germany during the #COVID-19 pandemic using data from the COVIMOD study 👉 doi.org/10.1186/s128... @uni-muenster.de @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social @helmholtzhzi.bsky.social @lshtm.bsky.social @unihalle.bsky.social #EpiSky

Following yesterday's successful closure to the outbreak practical, our #IDEpi course participants have been busy learning about mathematical modelling, with lots of practicals along the way! #IDSky #EpiSky @uni-muenster.de

Final interviews and analyses are underway in our #IDEpi short course fictional outbreak! Soon we'll know if the groups got to the bottom of the outbreak when they present their findings to their respective target audiences! #IDSky #EpiSky

It's our favourite time of the year! Our #IDEpi course outbreak practical is underway and our course participants are busy developing questionnaires, conducting interviews, and analysing data to figure out the cause of the fictional outbreak at @EileWoMiSa.bsky.social's house! Will they succeed?

Thanks to Michaela Diercke and Hendrik Wilking of @rki.de for travelling to @uni-muenster.de to speak to our #IDEpi course about surveillance and outbreak investigation today! 🦠🔍 #IDSky #EpiSky

Today's #IDEpi lectures introduced infectious diseases & transmission dynamics thanks to talks by Esther Künzli of @swisstph.ch & our own @andkarch.bsky.social @uni-muenster.de. With that, the basis for the rest of the week has been laid & we're all set to keep building tomorrow! #IDSky #EpiSky

By now it's tradition that the first day of our #IDEpi course finishes off with dinner together. This way, we get to know one another early on in the course and help develop a strong group dynamic while accompanied by yummy food 🍕

Our week-long Infectious Disease Epidemiology Spring School 2025 is underway! This year our participants have travelled from across Europe to take part in our course composed of lectures, modelling practicals, and a thrilling outbreak practical! #IDEpi #IDSky #EpiSky @uni-muenster.de

Here's what our team got up to in our free time at #MONID2025! Visiting the Brandenburg Gate and enjoying the view over Berlin from the dome of the @bundestag.de was a great way to spend our free evening 🌆 @eilewomisa.bsky.social @epibreze.bsky.social @jasuer.bsky.social @rasmuspedersen.com

That's a wrap on #MONID2025! Lovely way to end off with a poster prize win for @epibreze.bsky.social 🎉 @uni-muenster.de

Here's a quick recap of day 1 of the #MONID2025 conference yesterday. The day was filled with talks, elevator pitches, poster tours, and a highly entertaining science slam followed by a lovely get-together.

Get ready for #DGEpi2025! Abstract submissions are now open for this year's annual #DGEpi conference, which will take place here in Münster! Submission is open until April 14th. Check out our conference website: 2025.dgepi.de @uni-muenster.de

🚨Few spots left for our Infectious Disease Epi course in March! It is free and a lot of fun. Come and join! @uni-muenster.de #InfectiousDisease

We had a great time at our institute's New Year's Get-Together yesterday! Several rounds of Eisstockschießen (ice stock sport) were followed by dinner, a pub quiz, and lots of table tennis!

We had lots of fun during yesterday's mid-week trip to the Christmas Markets in @stadt-muenster.de and couldn't pass up the opportunity to take a cheesy photo 😄 @eilewomisa.bsky.social @ruebli.bsky.social @rasmuskristoffer.bsky.social @epibreze.bsky.social

We had a lovely time at the 2024 Workshop on Teaching Epi in Berlin! There was great discussion and insights into some of the challenges and opportunities facing epi teaching. A trip to the Christmas Market had to be included! Thanks @jlrohmann.bsky.social and @epibreze.bsky.social for organising!

It was a pleasure to present our scoping review on reporting guidelines and quality assessment tools for infectious disease modelling studies during today’s webinar of the Epi Parameter Community coordinated by @who.int. Thanks for having us!
