Thank you to all of you who helped with my two new courses. I wanted to show off the finished products.

Bioinformatics for biologists somehow managed to attract ten thousand people! The reason we made the course in the first place was because a lot of people were asking for it, but I'm really pleased to see such a huge number pouncing on it.

Genomic Scenarios in Primary Care has basically eaten my 2021 so far, so I'm especially glad to get it out of the door. It feels good to be working in medical-adjacent training again. Doctors can be frustrating to work with because they do absolutely everything at the last minute, for the entirely understandable reason that patient care is always their first priority and is prone to emergencies. But they are also genuinely awesome colleagues if you're willing to be very, very relaxed about deadlines, just really knowledgeable and excited to communicate.

(If you go delving in those courses you can probably figure out my wallet name; I'm not really worried about that. I just don't want search engines to be able to find this journal based on my rather unusual name.)

Courses are free of charge, you do have to provide a meaningful email address but that's all. It's totally fine to sign up if you're just curious, but I think some of you or people you know might find them actually useful and interesting.

Soundbite

Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
