Lots to think about in terms of biosecurity on dairy farms given the current #H5N1 outbreak in the US

Delighted to receive the Infection Science Award and present work on climate informed food-borne pathogen surveillance at Microbiology Society annual conference - lots of interesting speakers and OneHealth work, particularly from PATH-SAFE #Microbio24

I’ve been a doctor for donkey’s years, & this one truth shows itself time & time again

You can be the most knowledgeable, skilled or accomplished doctor in your field…

But unless you have the ability to communicate effectively with patients, you will never be a good doctor.

Today is the first ever Health Day featured at a COP 🌱

Climate change impacts our health – directly and indirectly.

Extreme weather events and pollution contribute to human vulnerability.

Health Day at #COP28 will highlight the health benefits of climate action.

Day 4 at #COP28 was health day, the first one ever at a COP, making the important connection between a healthy planet and healthy people.

See more in our video of the day!

Had a great time ESCAIDE! Thank you for having me present on novel OneHealth approaches to outbreak investigation, moving upstream to predict and prevent outbreaks before they happen - all the more important with the cascading risks of climate change #ESCAIDE23

Fascinating talk by Neil Cunningham about the effects of climate change on food safety and implications for infectious diseases outbreaks 👏 #ESCAIDE2023

Phenomenal talk from Neil Cunningham at #ESCAIDE2023 on how was can use climate, geospatial and produce pipeline data to improve foodbourne outbreak detection. Too engaged to take a photo: well worth a watch for all those registered 👏🏻👏🏻
