Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.
ALT A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.

New paper from our project on genomics & reproductive autonomy. We report interviews with health professionals & link their ideas with the concept of salience. @kerryndrysdale @JLSbioethics @IsabellaCHolmes (and others not on X; see reply). #bioethics

Do you have experience of severe #periodpain or are supporting someone who does? Are you in #Wales? Please get involved in the @ResearchWales-funded @SPPINN_Study! It aims to find out what's needed to improve understanding & care for this often-misunderstood symptom. Diolch!
ALT The SPPINN Severe Period Pain Is Not Normal poster has a brightly coloured logo, saying SPPINN. It has logos across the bottom for Cardiff University, Bangor University, FTWW, Health & Care Research Wales, and Welsh Government. It invites people with experience of severe period pain themselves or as a family member or carer for someone who has severe period pain to get in touch with researchers at Cardiff University by emailing [email protected].

Here’s my research tip:
If you’re in a senior role, support PhD students and early career academics as much as possible.
Include them on publications.
Invite them to be part of grants.
Pay them to deliver guest lectures.
We can all take steps to make academia more supportive and kind.

Everyone thinks PEWS has a solid evidence base to reduce in-patient deaths
Well it's complicated...
Read this review to understand the complexity, and why there is no perfect PEWS system (yet)

Nurses' pay has fallen by 5% since 2010. The pay offer will lead to a predicted further fall of 5%. The PM describes this as "appropriate and fair"!! nuffieldtrust.org.uk/resourc…

Councillors stand in solidarity with the @CWUnews picket line in #Abergavenny this morning to support our posties. The pay deal being imposed on workers is a real terms pay cut.
Royal Mail Group can afford to give our posties a pay rise - they won’t.
Please #StandByYourPost.

Proud to be supporting @cwu_southwales at their picket line in #Abergavenny today. All workers deserve decent jobs, pay and conditions ✊

Looking forward to presenting a poster on non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) in Vienna for the ESHG Conference 2022. Interested in learning more about ethical issues arising from the implementation of NIPT in England, France and Germany?

Sometimes there are no words that can adequately capture the emotion and significance of something as horrific as Bloody Sunday or important as the Good Friday Agreement. Liam Neeson does it with no words at all. Floored me. Peace in Northern Ireland MUST be protected #DerryGirls
