Excellent analysis of the COVID response in the UK & Europe.
Some questionable appraisal of Sweden, without considering comparisons with NZ, Australia - or indeed Finland, Denmark, & Norway.
Many countries minimized COVID deaths AND minimized lockdown, by reducing infections.

Had the Irish government followed the UK response in the 1st COVID wave, we would have suffered about 2,500 further deaths (on top of the 1,635 people who died before May 31, 2020). Thankfully that didn't happen.
Nevertheless, we will await Ireland's COVID-19 Evaluation...

Dr. Erika Stewart just left the Ryan Lab & @tcddublin.bsky.social to become a Postdoctoral Research Fellow with Dani Dumitriu at @columbiamed.bsky.social. A scientist who is always resilient, rigorous and adaptive - looking forward to seeing what she does next.

As scientists look for alternative homes for their research careers, will Ireland seize the opportunity?

Neuroscience is collaboration. The engram/metabolism combination couldn't have happened without our partners - especially @lydialynch.bsky.social (now at Princeton).
Also @drchristineannd.bsky.social at @columbiamed.bsky.social and Clara Ortega-de San Luis (now at the University of Jaen).
