Coding away the Sunday to end our week in Malta (with IRL field epis, how exciting) #ESCAIDE @RECONEPI
The @RECONEPI hackfest day two. Working on automated sitrep generators and the development of case studies together with a lot of motivated people. It's Sunday after all and after a busy @ESCAIDE week. Hosted by @ZKamvar @TeebzR

Great discussion on the interplay between academia and outbreak response in the face of conflicting incentives. How to make academia useful to public health in real time? #ESCAIDE @RECONEPI

Yesterday we had the kickoff meeting of our joint #R4epi project, a project between @MSF @msf_innovation and @RECONEPI advancing operational Epi analyses in the field. Cleaning/shaping data, faster and more consistent analyses, directly supporting field interventions. #rstats
