Extremely proud of my PhD student Ismaila, for passing his viva at LSHTM, with only minor corrections. He is dedicated, hard-working and I know will have a brilliant career. Luckily he joins us as a post-doc for the near future. Congratulations Dr Manneh. So well deserved!

Are you willing to fight for someone you don't know?
That's how we build a nation based on justice, dignity & human rights for all.
@AOC and I will be in Utah, Idaho, and Montana over the next week to rally around exactly that.
I hope you'll join us:
