This International Women's Day, I'm thinking about how it wasn't required for NIH-sponsored trials to include women until 1993.

Frosty stillness at the Cambridge University Botanical Gardens this morning. Hard to stop photographing. This is as wintery as can be expected here, so drinking it in…

A wee a bit of Saturday afternoon vulnerability for you there. I wish science made people who have experienced psychosis less dehumanised, unwelcomed and "done to" rather than "with". There is so much to learn from lived experience. Dear folk with psychosis, your knowledge on psychosis MATTERS.
