Hello @societyforepi.bsky.social SER members! Is epidemiology inherently political? We are looking for epidemiologists in the US to take a brief survey about how we use the concept of solidarity in our work. Please take a few minutes to help us with this research. Thanks!

Presenting poster-on-poster action for tonight’s #ser2025 poster session: come see me at #522 and #1004 which (with approval/suggestion by the kindly SER folks) have been co-relocated next to each other across from #1380 so I can crew both posters at once :).

It was a real pleasure for me to chair the Nutrition and Obesity session at #SER2025.

A group of fantastic speakers presenting some fascinating research, including a talk from an undergraduate student and a high school student!

There’s a lot of amazing work at #SER2025 but this DAG poetry art poster is the best poster I’ve seen at any research conference in a decade

3 posters in a row! Peak efficiency. #SER2025

Three nerdy posters in a row, providing the nerd presenter the opportunity to hippity hop between content questions. Caffeine was consumed.
