Equitable data sharing is paramount, and this article outlines a framework for fairly attributing datasets to authors. Would be great to see this widely implicated! It was great being part of the consortium led by @lhug.bsky.social @alexjprobst.bsky.social and others. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Submitted a Welcome Trust Discovery grant yesterday. Probably biggest application I've ever done with a great team of collaborators. Proud of this at least, no matter what happens next. Is anyone needs me I'll be joining my cat Nebula in this pose.

Great presentation from Xenia at #esm2025 supported by @micronorman.bsky.social and @tlillebaek.bsky.social and others on decades of NTM isolates from patients and how it changes over those years.

Great as always being at @itmantwerp.bsky.social today teaching whole genome sequencing for clinical tuberculosis management to the group of super engaged clinical doctors taking our DR-TB course. So many great questions I tried my best to answer 😅

I taught phylogenetics to our foundation year students today using chocolates to demonstrate parsminoy and convergent evolution. I picked quality street for the shape and colour variety. I was not ready for each box to contain so few chocolates!!
Image showing quality street chocolates, 2 to 3 per type, 24 in total.
