Would be very keen to hear more from the #malaria research community about which vaccines you’re most excited by - #R21? #RTSS? #BioNTech’s potential shot?
And are vax really the missing piece to drive down cases worldwide, especially in Africa, or are there other elements we’re ignoring? Will the logistics of a vax rollout - especially one with multiple doses & boosters - undermine efficacy? What other considerations should we all be thinking about? #globalhealth #globaldev #malariaeradication

Still not sure how I feel about mastodon, but here's my #introduction

I'm a #scottish #academic based in #london with a background in #internationaldevelopment and #childrights #ngos. My #research focuses on #development #discourse around #talibes - or children in Qur'anic #education in #senegal, and issues affecting #streetchildren.

2: There are FOUR reasons why #globaldev must be looking at #VR #AR [1] We tend to overestimate the effect of a technology in the short run & underestimate the effect in the long run. @UNICEFinnovate@twitter.com understands this, since 2015 looking into this tech, including #WebVR
