I don't know what to say to anyone this morning other than that the hundreds of thousands of people who are about to lose access to the care they need to stay alive deserve better than silence.

Historikerinnen und Historiker nehmen Ute gesellschaftspolitische Verantwortung wahr und mobilisieren für die Demokratie und vor allem ihren Erhalt.
Bitte, wenn möglich, unterzeichnen und teilen.

Really greatful for COST 22159 @eurohealthhist.bsky.social, to @kindkovacs.bsky.social for encouraging me to join, and to Dimitra Vassiliadou for a fantastic workshop on #patients and a much too brief stay in Mytilini, Lesvos. Looking forward to welcoming Action participants in Cluj this September!

Happening right now: our hybrid @healthcostinst.bsky.social COST-workshop on "First-Person Accounts in the History of Healthcare" at the University of the Aegean in Lesvos (Greece), organized by Dimitra Vassiliadou, Janka Kovács and Steve Thompson. @oana-sorsk-id.bsky.social.

Seit vorgestern existiert die Forschungsstelle nicht mehr. Ob man die AfD so bekämpft, liebe @gruene.de @spdde.bsky.social , indem man ihr nachgibt? /2

Die, die doch hinfahren, besorgen dafür eigens neue Laptops und Handys. Surreal. Die breite Öffentlichkeit realisiert noch immer zu wenig, wie ernst die Lage ist.

Myself and my colleague Dr Raul Carstocea are inviting applications for a PhD scholarship at Maynooth University , looking at the imperial roots of the Ustasha fascist movement.
If successful, the position is fully-funded for four years.
Please share and feel free to contact me!
Dear students, faculty and staff, We are writing to inform you about a deeply concerning situation involving one of our international graduate students at the University of Minnesota. We learned that, on March 27 at an off-campus residence, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials detained a graduate student enrolled on our Twin Cities campus. We are actively working to gather more details about this incident.
Well, UMN has officially been hit. We just got an email from our president that an international grad student was detained yesterday. No further details provided.
This. Is. Crushing.
