Thank you co-authors Dr. Winnie Courtene-Jones @SabinePahl Bart Koelmans Karen Raubenheimer & Julien Boucher. The way we produce use & dispose of plastics has to change

With mild infection in healthy participants who received a #SARSCoV2 challenge there was evidence of persistent cognitive and memory changes at least one year after Covid, compared with uninfected controls thelancet.com/journals/eclin… Adam Hampshire eClinicalMedicine – The Lancet Discovery Science

Good article covering river pollution with some coverage of the nested challenge of AMR and covers our #poosticks study theguardian.com/environment/20…

Important 🧵on our new peer-reviewed paper: The pandemic is as bad as it ever was for babies - in year to Aug 2023, 6,300 babies under 1 were admitted to hospital wholly or partly BECAUSE of Covid. They are ONLY age group where admissions have NOT gone down over time 1/17

We have a very safe, efficacious paediatric SARS2 mRNA vax, used 6m+. Reduced dose and age minimises small risk of myocarditis seen in adolescents. This sobering study by Kate Brown, Prof. Christina Pagel - @chrischirp.bsky.social et al shows 6m+ kids are always at risk from acute COVID. x.com/chrischirp/sta…

🚨New post: "Creating a Conda package from Fortran using fpm and rattler-build" 🚨 In this post, I explore how modern tooling like fpm and rattler-build can dramatically streamline creating Conda packages from Fortran code. samharrison.science/posts/conda-pa… prefix.dev Fortran

Last week I had the pleasure of hosting a Euro-CSDMS workshop to envision future models of the natural world. Inspirational discussions & tangible next steps towards a thriving international community pioneering the next generation of environmental models! UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology
