Goosebumps! People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Here is a great example, from the Steven Colbert Show, in which Sir Ian McKellen delivers an extraordinary speech. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important. #Shakespeare #ianmckellen #stevencolbert

I can’t express how much I miss the National Tally Room, and turning up there on election night with a picnic dinner to watch it all unfold.

Have you ever heard of a microfiche? 🤔 Here’s a #CurtinUniversity student using one in the 1980s to access our library catalogue. At the time, microfiche was the technology used to compress the storage space of large amounts of printed information. 📚 CRICOS code: 00301J.
Two students using microfiche at Curtin in the 1980s; one person in the foreground is smiling towards the camera, and the other is focused on their screen in the background.

In this clip, @PutrinoLab makes it clear that it is infection with SARS-CoV-2, no matter what the severity, that is the likely main culprit explaining the surge in other infections. With this virus, getting repeatedly infected for your immune system is "like a boxer, every fight takes a bit more out of them, it is not making you stronger". 1/

What’s behind the post covid sickness surge? The vaccine? Immunity suppression? Long Covid? The answer is there is not one answer. It’s complicated and we have to keep the conversation going. Dr. David Putrino, Dir. of Rehabilitation Innovation of Mt Sinai Health System joins me to discuss
