In science & esp medicine, risk is a tricky thing to contend with - besides of course being a mathematical one - and involves many considerations in order to have a more fulsome understanding. In this post @LizMarnik and I attempt to explain these concepts. 1/9
Ever felt confused or excluded due to hyperspecialized terminology in the field? When you’re explaining research to non-scientists, does jargon get in the way? You’re not alone! Help us break down barriers & build a bridge to scientific knowledge with your input 🤝 More ⬇️ 1/8 🧵
❗️It's a myth that "natural" immunity is superior to immunity from vaccines. Any minor differences in immunity quickly become irrelevant when you consider the fact that pathogens have consequences. This nugget is from @LizMarnik in my latest podcast. (1/7)
Come join us! I’m looking forward to what will be a great conversation.

I haven’t been on Twitter in ages for a really good reason. On June 23 I gave birth to our lovely daughter Adelaide Lois. She’s now almost 6 weeks old and is filling out lives with so much joy (and less sleep). Reminder that if you’re following me for scicomm find me on Instagram

Science communication should never come with the arrogance to gatekeep information. In fact, all information should be accessible & everyone should be encouraged to build science literacy. I am excited to soon share two big initiatives that I will be funding to do exactly this.
Also I hesitate to breathe life back into this but I really don’t see good evidence that IgG4 is actively tolerogenic (as some seem to imply) as much as that it simply interferes with signaling that would be pro-inflammatory
