Happy publication day Dr Rageshri Dhairyawan! 🥳 Essential reading for doctors and patients alike 🌟📖

My policy of only reading reviews written by friends continues. Dr Rageshri Dhairyawan gets it and then some, so it's very gratifying -- and I am very grateful -- to see this in The Lancet!

Well, it is official! 😆😁 The gallery I have been curating over the past few months with Wellcome Collection is open. The Kola Nut Cannot Be Contained is about the entangled global histories, vibrant traditions, and future innovations surrounding this small West African fruit.

Dear friends, family & supporters - our family are fundraising to cover our legal costs at the inquest into our beloved Anu's death, taking place in just 6 weeks. We don't have long to raise a staggering £60k, & so we are calling on you to please share🙏 crowdjustice.com/case/justice-f…
