Wildfires have consumed vast chunks of Ukraine. Is Russia deliberately fuelling the flames?

This is poor editorial leadership as well. We had a paper go out to a new reviewer after revisions. They asked for all sorts of nonsense which had nothing to do with the original reviews. I pushed back and the editor accepted it was ridiculous, but why not explain to reviewers the situation first?

🩺 War injuries in Gaza

International doctors reported nearly 24,000 trauma cases: widespread burns, blast wounds, and limb injuries, alongside thousands needing chronic care support.

Military folk + the Armed Forces Covenant.

What's the best guide you've read that really explains the Covenant, how it works, its strengths and its limitations?

Looking for an independent analysis of it in detail.

"The economists...described the results as “conservative” because they did not account for the record-breaking wildfires that torched southern Europe last month or the compounding impact of extreme weather events that strike at the same time."

Climate policy is failing millions & unless sexual & repro health is integrated into every climate strategy these remain incomplete. Our new paper about climate and SRHR is out now. www.frontiersin.org/journals/rep...

‘Inhaling the microplastics’: what is in British children’s school uniforms?

This is obscene: Trump administration to destroy nearly $10m of contraceptives for women overseas -- at an additional cost of $167,000 to do so. Vindictive, self-righteous zealots!

Anyone want a writing accountability partner? I’ve got a few papers to get over the line about climate or SRHR-I’m happy to write with anyone though! I can meet 6am -7am/7.30am UK time & through the day after 9am but can’t do past 3pm or evenings. Send me a message if you’d be interested.

I haven’t read it but is it the trees or something else? I.e. correlation but not causation?

In the UK you get a message telling you your blood donation has been used and where it was used, mine went from Sheffield to Manchester to Southport where it helped help to save someone’s life. Here’s a reminder to book to donate if you’ve been thinking about it but forgotten.

Trump’s not even hiding it. Lots of folks been talking for a while about how people would be buying up cheap stock waiting for it to rise again & here he is telling people to do exactly that, no shame whatsoever. Some people are getting very rich from this, everyone else should be pi$$ed off.

I would love to see more research teams employ data managers. While roles like data scientists and research analysts are crucial for analyzing data, those roles often don't have the time to develop standardized and documented processes that lead to better data. #databs

Conflict genital injuries from military service have been overlooked, consequently support has been limited. Building on our previous research & working with the Scar Free Foundation, our new research project will change this. Links to 2 research posts in comments scarfree.org.uk/blog/unprece...

I’ve been to give blood today.It’s easy, you get free snacks & you can help save someone’s life. Blood stocks are low,so every donation counts.I only remembered to book as I saw someone else had been,so here’s a reminder for anyone else thinking of going but not got round to it yet. www.blood.co.uk

This is really unbelievable. When we talk about digital security, I teach my students not to send in a digital message anything they wouldn’t want public knowledge. Surely these people are stupid,but maybe they just think they’re untouchable?

Come & work with our amazing team on our new research project about conflict genital injuries in male military personnel. Post doc research associate post at KCL. Closing date 1st April. Please feel free to get in touch with any queries. www.kcl.ac.uk/jobs/110546-...
