PhD student @ Karolinska Institutet exploring nicotine use during pregnancy. Passionate about public health, epidemiology, and evidence informed policy. Expect some #PhDLife, some everyday life reflections, and zero coherence.

Yeah, so after years of unbelievably depressing news, it somehow feels like we’re hitting a new low lately?
Anyway, today my kid hung out with goats and I’m not planning on thinking about anything else.

mRNA vaccines are a game-changer. Faster to develop, generally safer, easy to modify, huge potential for wider applications (e.g. cancer). If the vaccine has been approved, it's already been thoroughly tested in randomised controlled trials. Nobody's trying to poison anyone with these vaccines.

Trans Day of Remembrance
If you've lost a family member or friend because of violence or rejection, I support and affirm you today
*I support and affirm your lost one*
Tomorrow I support and affirm our trans siblings who don't need to be remembered yet because they're living their best lives

Got accepted, not rejected, so now I’m convinced it was obviously not that hard. #PhDLife #AcademicSky

I’m ambitious but not competitive, and every time people talk about funding like it’s a sport, I feel like the exact wrong kind of person for academia. I want to do good work, not “win.”. #AcademicSky #PhDLife #GrantWriting

On yesterday’s episode of “does Alma even have a single clue what she’s doing?” we had my surprised realisation that time-to-event and survival analysis are the same thing.
Stay tuned for more unimpressive thinking!

nu när alla hånar bebistillvänd arkitektur vill jag ändå lyfta hur mycket glädje man får av att oftare klä sig efter hur man i femårsåldern föreställde sig vuxenlivet. Barbie- och utklädeslådan som inspiration: glada färger! kortkort och hellångt! vippiga kjolar! färgmatchade accessoarer!

Agent: why are you here?
I’m a Professor, giving a talk.
What’s you subject?
Political Philosophy.
My favourite!!

Having an aunt who’s been collecting puzzles and stuffies since the 90s, whose home looks like a pink toy store, and who absolutely adores you is truly a blessing for my kid. For me, it’s a gift to see their relationship grow.

This is an especially worrying statement when facial recognition can be inaccurate, biased, and generally make mistakes. Basing whether someone should be in the US or not, and ignoring physical media like a birth certificate, is ripe for disaster bsky.app/profile/jose...
New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people
