Interested in vector spatial structure and plague?? Come to Lammemuir 2 tomorrow at 9:00 to hear me talk about my study 🦠#BES2022 #Parasites #SciComm @BES_Parasite

This week at #BES2022 we have two #parasite, #pathogen and #wildlifedisease sessions as well as lots of wonderful poster presentations both today and tomorrow. Keep posted for more detailed info on the disease-themed talks coming up! #conference
Myself, @AurielESumner and @TCornulier are running this session tomorrow! Should be an interesting discussion to get more people thinking about writing lasting and reproducible code! #Statistics #R
We are very excited to announce we are hosting a session at the #RSS2022Conf tomorrow afternoon, please come and say hi! We will be discussing data reproducibility in R and hosting a live #Reprothon! We will also be live-tweeting the event too so stay tuned! #Hackers2022
Trying to resist the hyperfixation urge to get deep into mechanical keyboard customisation and learn how to make pokemon resin keycaps is haaaarrrddd. #adhdtwitter #procrastination
I would like to be one of these birds, their life seems simple and satisfying :)
It's peep time again!
ALT A four panel comic titled "How to be a peep." In panel 1, we see a photo of a peep pecking in the water and the caption "probe for food". In panel 2, most of its face is under water and the caption is "wharglblarglarglb". In panel 3, its beak is open saying "aaah" and the caption is "pause for tiny scream". In panel 4, its head is entirely under water and the caption is "ablublblublublblu"

Do you get our newsletter? Each month we send out new articles and great interest pieces from the field. This month @ParasitePhD discusses her internship with DEFRA and @LuciKirkpatrick & @s_vanwambeke tell us about parasitology in Belgium. Sign up here: britishecologicalsociety.us1…
Working from home on a monday, also known as doing my admin while watching my cat melt into a blanket and wake up looking ruffled repeatedly. It's a great life 😂
It's me! Was really fun delivering my first in-person talk about my PhD! #EAB2021
Petition to make "urbanity" a thing! Well done
@parasitepixie for a fantastic talk on climate and habitat patterns in "her" two flea species, vectors of plague on Madagascar🐀 @UoABioSci #EAB2021 @BES_Parasite #phdlife #phdchat
Awesome funded PhD project currently being advertised by my supervisor! 🐀🐀
Exciting PhD opportunity @UoABioSci with @EastbioDTP on pathogen dynamics and pathogen genetic diversity in water vole populations. In collaboration with @Lambin_Ecology @BirtlesR @chrissuthy Closing date 16th December 2021. @aberdeenuni findaphd.com/phds/project/ea…
#Genepop question for #populationgenetics people? Do you prefer to use the software version or the R package? Thinking of trying both to get a feel for which I prefer. #dataanalysis #AskTwitter
Anyone know what this skull could be? Can post more photos!
Fieldwork done for the day! One of my students found this little skull! Does anyone know what it could be? We were thinking some kind of #rodent? #AskTwitter #twittertakeover #diseaseecologist #AskAZoologist
Day 2 of my twitter takeover is coming to you from the Aberdeenshire coast, stay tuned for pretty photos!
Good morning twitter! Today I'm joining an undergraduate field trip to forvie beach to survey the rabbit populations that live there 🐇 hoping the blue skies last longer than forecast! #twittertakeover #aberdeencoast #fieldtrip #diseaseecologist
Yes I bought my cat a personalised wall-mounted cat bed, yes she is incredibly spoiled, I have no regrets!
As a researcher in the time of covid, I work from home alot. Here are my 2 favourite office buddies Skadi the cat and Tilly the dog 🥳🥳 They aren't super helpful with my work tasks but they're always up for a cuddle :) #twittertakeover #petsworkingfromhome #diseaseecologist
If you've ever wondered what it is I do all day (apart from pledge eternal servitude to my cat), here's a little blurb about what I'm working on... If you fancy learning some more about what I do I'm doing a twitter takeover this week over @BES_Parasite :D
I'm a third year (agh!) PhD student at @aberdeenuni funded by @QUADRATdtp studying the movement of 2 fleas that carry plague in Madagascar. Here's a blurb of what I'm working on right now if you're intruiged 🐀🦠 #PlagueDoctor #TwitterTakeover #disease

Hi twitter! I'm Lucy, one of the comms reps for Parasites & Pathogen's SIG, I'm going to be doing a little takeover this week to show you all a little bit of my research and what my life as a PhD student is like #twittertakeover #diseaseecologist #parasitologist

Quick FYI for fellow @aberdeenuni students; student support and disability services can offer assessments for things like ADHD, ADD, autism, and dyslexia to name a few things, and support for a lot of different conditions.(1/4)

My wonderful, beautiful, truly infuriating cat has apparently been driving my neighbours to frustration by shitting in their garden for weeks 🤦♀️🤦♀️ I now have to figure out how to train a headstrong feline to shit somewhere else, advice and condolences appreciated!
