The effects of #postcovid are such that we will be dealing with them for decades to come. But now a new understanding of the impacts on our #DNA and #epigenetic signature pave the way forward in addressing #LongCovid

Being able to execute the code used in analysis to create top-tier research will go a long way to closing the reproducibility gap...
Will you be publishing your code along with your next article?
#bioinformatics #R #Python #DataScience
R and Python are increasingly used in research. Now you can share your code interactively in your paper when you publish an Executable Research Article. elifesciences.org/labs/dc5ac…
Science and Art are so often painted as polar opposites, when in fact they are both a part of the same coin.
How does art influence your science?
Sofya Kovalevskaya, born #OTD in 1850, was a mathematician and writer who made a valuable contribution to the theory of partial differential equations. She was the first woman to join the editorial board of a scientific journal.
ALT Quote from Sofya Vasilyevna Kovalevskaya: “It is impossible to be a mathematician without being a poet in soul.”

Welcome to MIIC seminar “Antimicrobial resistance in the human-environment interface” by Renata Cristina Picão @picao_renata, Professor, Microbiology Institute, Federal University, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
26 Jan, at 13:30–14:30 at Eken, Entrance 64, Floor 9

While in-office attendance is obviously necessary for wet lab work and hugely beneficial for collaboration, it is often easier to dedicate writing/coding/analysis time when working remotely.
Ideal conditions vary by circumstance and remaining cognizant of this improves results

We have always worked to remain as flexible with in-office vs remote work as possible but the key, as with anything, is clear communication.
Knowing that your colleague will work from home on Thursday or take a half day on Wednesday makes it easier to plan accordingly.

In December, The Union organised the first-ever workshop about advocacy, communications and social mobilisation for the India National TB Programme.
Over 100 people attended the event which reinforced the importance of communications to #EndTB in India. theunion.org/news/union-brin…

Looking forward to seeing you at TBScience next week for some exciting science that will hopefully transform how we understand, diagnostic, treat and prevent TB in the coming years.
With the following CORE themes:

@TBbrigden
Making the transition from preventing Covid 19 infections to treating the ongoing TB epidemic is not a simple matter for struggling healthcare infrastructures, especially not in the wake of rising antibiotic resistance.
But efforts like this show us that it can be done.
Great report by @paimadhu on how rising TB deaths worldwide revealed by last week's @WHO report calls for urgent action, like the 1/4/6x24 Campaign to rally energy, funding and political will to end TB

We are kicking off a new series here with the ‘Lerm Lab Journal Club.’
We will be sharing articles with a focus on #trainedimmunity, #epigenetics, DNA methylation, #tuberculosis , #BCG , #Covid and so much more.
Follow for new articles each week...
#LermLabJournalClub
Just over a month to go before the 2022 EMBO workshop on #tuberculosis at the @InstitutPasteur
