Helhjertet enig med @torewig.bsky.social i @morgenbladet.no : Vi må gjøre Norge til en attraktiv havn for de kloke hodene som nå flykter fra USA. www.morgenbladet.no/ideer/kommen...

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

Gravide kvinner rammes særlig hardt av klimaendringene, men blir likevel ofte glemt. Veldig bra at Energi og Klima (@energiogklima.no @larsursin.bsky.social) lager sak om dette. www.energiogklima.no/to-grader/ek...

Nå vil være et godt tidspunkt for den nye forskningsministeren å markere seg imot antiintellektualismen (dels Sp og definitivt den nye administrasjonen i USA) og lære av Sverige.

Important work led by @pinwang.bsky.social

Here’s a piece in TCTMD where I commented on our recent publication on adverse pregnancy outcomes and future cardiovascular disease risk. www.tctmd.com/news/genes-m...

Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes & CAD Risk: Negative Control Mendelian Randomization Study #CardioObstetrics #CardioSky #Circulation www.ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.1... @ahajournals.bsky.social @drklindley.bsky.social @garimasharmamd.bsky.social @erinmichos.bsky.social @isabellemalhame.bsky.social

What started out as a teaching case in my Perinatal Epi class at @yalesph.bsky.social has now been published in Circulation (@americanheart.bsky.social). Very happy to work with Dipender Gill on this! 1/2 www.ahajournals.org/doi/full/10....

Her har vi (dessverre) en sterk kontrast til Norges såkalte "satsning" på forskning i nåværende periode: Sverige ser ut til å gjøre en reell innsats. Det er vanskelig å forstå hvorfor Norge sakker akterut i denne konkurransen - tilsynelatende en villet politikk.

Explore our research on the complexities of turning evidence into action, especially during crises and in tackling 'wicked problems' such as sustainability #AcademicSky @monabaker11.bsky.social @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social www.med.uio.no/sustainit/en...

Cool paper: journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Dette er faktisk så ille at det er vanskelig å ta innover seg. Hvis dette betyr slutten på alle de måtene den amerikanske regjeringa støtter vaksinering i eget og andre land kan jo det bokstavelig talt bety hundrevis av millioner av dødsfall i åra som kommer. www.nrk.no/urix/vil-ha-...

Such an exciting Yale Center on Climate Change and Health Seminar by the truly amazing pioneer of the #ClimateChange and Health field: Dr Kris Ebi @krisebi.bsky.social introducing the latest progress on detection & attribution of the health impacts of climate change. @yalesph.bsky.social

100% agree with data wizard @jburnmurdoch.bsky.social that uncertainty should be more explicitly communicated. In all sciences. Further suggestions; graded shading of error margin representing probability distribution, and an asterisk specifying the assumption of no remaining systematic error.

Please join us for the Norway launch of the Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change this Thursday. Can be followed on Zoom. I'll present on the impact of heat on pregnancy outcomes and child health. www.med.uio.no/helsam/engli...

Super impressed by these two who received their PhD diploma today! I had the privilege of mentoring Xiaoting Shi during her PhD, while Haoran Zhuo I'll get to co-mentor in her new postdoc. The future of epidemiological research looks bright! @yalesph.bsky.social @yaleuniversity.bsky.social

I greatly look forward to speak at the Yale Climate Change and Health Seminar on Dec 4th about our own and others' research on the link between high ambient temperatures during pregnancy and maternal and child health!
