As I lie in bed having had non-stop back pain for nearly a week, a reminder to please exercise kindness to people with chronic physical and mental health problems as the weather is changing. It can often temporarily exacerbate conditions, including for people like me with implanted metal in my body.

TB Ed Talk: LIBRE-Post TB: A Pilot Intervention for Post-TB Lung Disease from Dr. Carole Mitnick
TB Ed Talk: LIBRE-Post TB: A Pilot Intervention for Post-TB Lung Disease from Dr. Carole Mitnick Dr. Carole Mitnick will introduce the phenomenon of post-TB lung disease (PTLD), which may affect up to 60% of people who are cured of TB. She will also discuss a pilot intervention for PTLD developed by Socios En Salud (PIH in Peru) to help people with respiratory symptoms after TB. And she will re

On the BBC iPlayer app you’re on the little thumbnail on the schedule!

A VPN should work, but I would hope someone at QI would be able to give you a link (although I’m not sure if it’s usual practice)?

I feel like I can’t make anything (film wise) because I don’t have the endless money and people power to do it to the absolute best of what I can imagine, so then I feel like I can’t start it because then I’ll β€œwaste” the idea? Please tell me I’m not alone in this, and also what to do about it πŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒ

I’ve been on the beta testing for a number of months, it got me through my dissertation, it definitely works!

I say different, but it’s about how and why people choose to consume certain sources of media, so not miles away by any means

11,000 more TB patients died after Trump's USAID cuts. That number will rise. | Opinion The potential for thousands of new deaths from TB is not worth the less than 1% in federal savings that came from cutting USAID.

I vaguely remember that. It’s also 10 years since I left primary school this year. Starting September, none of the kids in the high school down the road were there when I was. 5 years of my life, and now in some ways I feel fully gone from the place (but also in some ways like I will never be).

I’m now looking for work in film/tv/video, particularly documentary work as this was my focus for the last 18 months of my degree. I am also a skilled researcher and have a wide photography portfolio. Happy to work in-person or remotely - if you have anything suitable, send me a message/email!

Today I graduated with a BA (Hons) First Class Degree in Film Production. I also won the Outstanding Dissertation Award for my dissertation on ethical approaches to documentary filmmaking when working with vulnerable contributors.

This is, truly, an astonishing work of genius. To learn (much) more about TB, watch this video.

If you are able to see it, you simply must, and then do everything you can to bring change. It was made with HBO, so please keep an eye out for it.

I’m now eating, so I’ll share more about other films later!

The other β€œThe Alabama Solution” about the Alabama Department of Corrections and the horrors and crimes taking place inside their prisons. Mostly filmed by the prisoners on illegal cellphones, it shows what a well-resourced cover-up system has previously censored.

I saw two films about the American (in)justice system. One called, β€œA Perfect Neighbour”, a sobering message about racism and gun violence, with the story told almost entirely through police bodycam and cctv footage. It is a Netflix production, so should be there at some point.

I have spent this week volunteering at Sheffield Documentary Festival, and seen some truly incredible films. It’s also helped my clarify some of my own ideas, including a short documentary about TB which I hope to make within the next couple of years!

Thing I am excited about for my trip Thursday night edition - the travel cards for Paris are SO COOL, and they use NFC so you can top them up USING YOUR PHONE!!! Why doesn’t London have that for Oyster cards, it would be so much easier!!!!

And yes I do already have the app installed. I am READY.
