Thank you.

Oh, I like this one! 😇

Ça c'est vraiment toit.

Congratulations to our friend and colleague Khamsing Vongphailoth on successfully defending his PhD thesis on sand flies and associated diseases in Laos! This milestone reflects years of dedication and research conducted at #InstitutPasteur Laos and Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne. Well done!

Tremendous work from Khamsing under the direction of Prs. Jérôme Depaquit at Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne and Philippe Buchy from the Institutions Pasteur du Laos. The guy basically decided to describe every sand fly species in Laos.... Congrats!

And they, and partners, did it. Kudos!

Funnily enough, I feel enthusiastic about advancing humankind knowledge, but not especially *for* advancing humankind knowledge.

I actually think this is a really bad strategy. If you want to work on something, just do it. Everybody's running behind anyway.

I surely hope it's great! My wife applied for a job there and didn't make the cut : there were more than 1,000 applicants 😱 So I guess people know it's great! And as a grantee I've always been more than happy with my interactions with Open Philanthropy Here's to some more.

It's the exact reason why they prefer charity to taxes.

Fire them.

Not me.

Apply.
