First point to note, in the Terms of Reference (p5), is that this is about "access to #NHSdata by #researchers, #commissioners, and #innovators" - i.e. #Planning and #CommercialReUse - so it is directly relevant to the operation of millions of people's #NationalDataOptOuts...

I find the #2017GE fascinating because it disrupts the targeted ads are everything narrative. Something was in the water and it was visible via Facebook. Since Facebook's audience has changed, but I still feel the case highlights the vitality of organic campaigns/satellites 2/
#Methods: Quantitative content analysis of the organic posts sent by the pages one month before election day (excluding election day). I used over 800 variables, only some are in the paper. Others will be used later on. 3/
NEW PAPER: A #review of #Indigenous #knowledge and #participation in #environmental #monitoring ecologyandsociety.org/vol25/iss2/art… @UVicENVI @UVicSocialSci @ale_uvic #openaccess @EcologySociety1

I read the @biorxivpreprint every day. I've recently been asked by various people what/why/how I read so here is a short thread that may be helpful to others: 1/
@biorxivpreprint I read abstracts of articles on the @biorxivpreprint every morning and every evening, and typically a few times during the day as well. I am sometimes delving into the main paper, usually starting with the supplement. 2/
@biorxivpreprint I search for articles on @Google using keywords (and filtering for "past 24 hours"), my lab has @SlackHQ channels where people post articles, I check @rxivist, and I read and search twitter by keywords for topics I'm interested in every day. I follow @biorxivpreprint. 3/
Streatham #terrorist was arrested in glorifying, promoting and possessing #terrorism material but at the time of having these, he has no capability to commit an act of terrorism.
