Jorinde's paper on "Pandemic over-Preparedness: Japanese public health experts and 1944 influenza" marks an exciting expansion of #histmed on the origins of pandemic planning.

Great to be at European Association for the History of Medicine #EAHMH2025 in Berlin this week. Have been busy & terrible at sharing on here, but having a lovely time! First #histmed conference since 2019 as I've been going to health/design stuff instead, and it's so nice to reconnect with people.

Big congratulations 🎉 to Jorinde Wels from KU Leuven for winning the #eahmh25 Pieter van Foreest Prize 🏆 for best student presentation!

#EAHMH25 very interesting panel on Disease Ecologies with excellent papers on Malaria, Dengue, Influenza and Rabies. Reflections on health education, environment and industry.

What a phenomenal panel!!! Thanks so much for making this conference truly special

What a phenomenal conference. Fascinating papers and keynotes, lovely friends, excellent food and a dream location. Huge thanks to @doravargha.bsky.social and the #EAHMH25 team for their stellar organization. Can’t wait for Prague 2027.

#eahmh25 has been a great conference - huge 🙏 to organisers. Seeing old friends & meeting new ones. And for me, finally visiting Berlin. I’ve mainly been conferencing but have also managed some mini field trips to Sanssouci, the botanic gardens (Potsdam & Berlin) & a wine bar in an old pharmacy ❤️

Medicine on a Larger Scale launched with an inspiring conversation and…. that’s a wrap for #eahmh25! Thanks to all who made this conference a truly wonderful affair. See you in two years in Prague! @eahmh.bsky.social #histmed
