Back from an inspiring #ESHRE2026! Loved to see colleagues & dear friends, to discuss the latest scientific discoveries in the field, to have enriching debates and also to party! To the next year, @eshre.bsky.social

Lancet study finds “no evidence” that Tylenol use in pregnancy increases the risk of autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability, despite claims by Trump and backers, by Jennifer Yang www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic... via @theglobeandmail.com

Lancet study refutes claim of a link between Tylenol and autism

Trump’s contentious remarks stoked fears and may delay critical research in the field, experts say

We live in a rapidly and profoundly changing world. Happy New Year to those never tired of figuring it out! 🥂

I'm still here. In the last months I developed an insanely hyper-focused interest in reading evidence based research on parenting. It served me to remember that not everything published is good/applicable/full picture. Good reminder for my actual work too.

Welcome on Bluesky @eshre.bsky.social 🦋

Hello Bluesky Community 👋 Fresh platform - same mission! We’re officially on Bluesky and looking forward to connecting with the community here! ✨ Let’s keep pushing the boundaries of reproductive science together. Follow us @eshre.bsky.social and be part of what’s next. 💙 #ESHRE #ReproductiveHealth

Reproduction and Fertility is seeking a new Associate Editor to join our Editorial Board in the field of ovarian biology. This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of a Q1 journal. 📩 Interested applicants are invited to send their CV to raf@bioscientifica.com

Happy #BreastfeedingWeek! I wish a world where everyone would receive sound evidence-based breastfeeding advice instead of crappy opinions

Back here to say I'm headed to Sweden a couple of days for an exciting new project and this is the first time I travel without my child! Huge milestone (for me). Bittersweet, but necessary moment. Love this with all its difficulties.

For my 1st #mothersday I got an ill child (hence a difficult night and day + not the present I wanted -my husband to take photos of us- because of the illness) and tomorrow I'm supposed to start working full time again. And somehow I'm more happy and at peace than I ever was in the last few years 😧

Six years later and this is still one of the top experiences of my career. Please, do yourself a favour and apply to be an #ESHRE 5👌 #reprosky www.eshre.eu/ESHRE2025/Me...

To keep it real: scientist-moms days aren't only filled with inspiring conferences + baby's cuddles at night. Sometimes you have days like today, full of bureaucratic obstacles to overcome when returning to work, difficult planning, emails not answered and baby screaming for no reason 😅

Here at #EOW2025 we are getting to know the naked-mole rat and her secrets for forever fertility 🤩

A room packed with #ovary enthusiast scientists: what a sight ✨ #EOW2025

The 1st European Ovary Workshop conference is happening right now! An ova-welcome from all the organizers #EOW2025

🧵 US states that implemented abortion bans saw higher than expected infant mortality rates, with larger increases among Black infants and those in southern states, according to this analysis of US national vital statistics data from 2012–2023. ja.ma/4aVchPn #MedSky

The science community here is very nicely growing 🦋

Yesterday in Nature. A new place for science 👌

My 👶 is 3 months, exclusively breastfed. She is learning all things fast, but still very much a baby. I'm doing research + teach my lectures, but feel 100% not ready for clinics today. Happy to have the chance to take a couple more months, but I think we should rethink maternity leave better

I'm nap-trapped under my daughter. I would like to work or read, but both computer and book are too far away. I'm left with checking mails. Nothing makes you adapt like a baby. Bye 👋

This. And the need for additional explanations. "Dairy" "Ok, so you can't eat eggs!" 🤦🏻‍♀️ But why? Why do people think that wheat and eggs contain milk and cheese doesn't?

Taylor Lorenz@taylorlorenz.bsky.social · 2y ago

I get tired of always having to explain my food allergies, I wish there was a giant colored bandana I could just wear around my neck sometimes so I ppl would know and I wouldn’t have to remember to ask every time I eat out 😅

My experience with the ESHRE journal club greatly exceeded the expectations I had when I funded it 5 years ago. It is among the most significant of my career so far! I'm excited about new #ESHRE members having this opportunity! www.eshre.eu/Publications...

Now that I'm approaching what probably is the last festive period of my working life without being on call, my thoughts to all the wonderful colleagues spending the holidays far from home to guarantee our health 🎄🏥

Happy to reach 100 followers on here 🔵! It may seem not much, but I'm overjoyed to start building again a curated feed and to see inspiring posts from colleagues instead of fake news and paid promotion ✨

We've known since the 1918 pandemic that #influenza is dangerous to pregnant people. There's a recently published meta analysis of avian / H5 influenza in pregnancy. Maternal mortality was 90 %. #MedSky + #ObGynSky + #IDSky. wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/...

I'm amazed by the science of #breastfeeding. And baffled we do not really study it & instead approach it with tales and superstitions. In which other areas of science are evidence so undermined?

#Contraception use in cancer patients and survivors is frequently suboptimal due to incomplete/absent counseling. There is no informed choice without information! Here we review the evidence and propose a pathway www.dovepress.com/contraceptio... #survivorship

Happy to participate in the effort for defining shared research priorities in #fertilitypreservation, you should too! If you are working in the field or a FP patient please help by filling this 10 min survey 🔗 qualtrics.ucl.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_... @hajrakhattak.bsky.social

Happy that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions on Bluesky! There is a very nice growing community of scientists here 🤩

Altmetric@altmetric.com · 2y ago

BLUESKY MEGA-THREAD Altmetric is thrilled and also LITERALLY RELIEVED to officially announce: We are now tracking research attention as it happens on Bluesky! We have been picking up posts on the site since late Oct. Our team is on Bluesky all day answering questions. Let's get into it!

Great resource for teaching 👇

Stephen Heard@stephenbheard.bsky.social · 2y ago

Yesterday, two different people emailed me gracious notes about how they'd used some of my course materials to teach Scientific Writing. I'm happy to have made some folks' jobs a bit easier! And if you'd like my course materials too, here you go: scientistseessquirre...

I finally saw the movie #Joy after so many enthusiastic comments from colleagues all over the world Damn, you all were right. The adversities, the hope, the joy.. I'm moved and reminded of why we do what we do everyday 🧪👩‍🍼
