The ink is dry, the AAHM celebrations are being planned: I will be joining Towson University's history department this fall as a tenure-track assistant professor in the history of medicine. I can't believe it finally happened. I am so happy and so lucky.

Don’t forget: this is the same death cult that refused common sense pandemic protocols- the shuttering of public health rn was always the plan. We’re still living pandemic politics.

This is in 2 days: "How Genetics Has Changed the History of the Black Death, And How History Has Changed Genetics." www.mcgill.ca/ssom/upcomin.... Looking forward to a lively discussion of how a #histsci approach to on-going research can capture a paradigm shift in the act. 🧪

For those who can make, I'll be giving a talk next Wednesday, 12 March, at @mcgill.ca: bsky.app/profile/moni.... Among the data I'll be presenting are the several double-layer mass graves (incl. Sankt Pölten in Austria). If the upper level is the Black Death, what caused the under layer? #histmed 🧪
