- The Germans do a good Kasespatzle but not sure it competes with Scottish macaroni and cheese (its close though :-) ).
- Nice meeting in Bonn last week to discuss BOLDER (BOLD WP7). Great to meet up with old friends and meet some new people. I also found out its a small world! #BOLDcwr #BOLDER @croptrust.bsky.social our invovlement is using our tools to make data available to all! #germinate #gridscore
- One of these guys crapped on me today #raging #downwiththeswallows
- Sad news (albeit perhaps not unexpected for a man who enjoys poisoning things) the scientist and satirical song writer Tom Leher has died. I always remember hearing the Elements Song in chemistry at school then discovering Poisoning Pigeons in the Park that my kids love! www.bbc.com/news/article...
- A couple of years ago while @bazraubach.bsky.social and myself were out at ICARDA in India we ended up being roped into helping write some text for a book which would be used to teach PGR - its been published now :-) link.springer.com/book/10.1007...
- A really nice documentary on BBC World Service about landraces, genebanks and all stuff PGR. Also includes some of my colleagues at ICARDA and well worth listening to the amazing work that they are doing! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
- Crop diversity making its way into football with the design of the new Norwegian ladies team kit :-) www.goal.com/en/lists/wom...

- See below - deadline approaching but still time to apply to work on some cool projects looking at how we apply AI technologies to breeding better barley!
- Reposted by Paul Shaw[Not loaded yet]
- And two opportunities working with myself @bazraubach.bsky.social along with the University of Dundee looking at the practical use of AI in barley research. Feel free to shout out for more information!
- Definitely worth popping along to learn a bit about the CPC if you are at #chelseaflowershow!
- First time back to #floorball in 10 years tonight. Different team, some old teammates, a total lack of fitness and what I assume will be a day hobbling about tomorrow with sore muscles. Was great! Stick tape does not store well for long periods and apparently my equipment was 'vintage'
- We have 2 PhD oppertunities coming up working with @intbarleyhub.bsky.social and the University of Dundee. The second one is looking at using AI for climate smart cereal breeding supported by the Global Crop Diversity Trust under the BOLD project bold.croptrust.org www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

- Learn a bit more about the Commonwealth Potato Collection held here at the James Hutton Institute and how we manage and most importantly use the collection in our research. Well worth following @huttoncpc.bsky.social to learn a bit more!
- Great new features added to GridScore in the past month or so. @bazraubach.bsky.social has been working with researchers at @intbarleyhub.bsky.social to develop tools to help in the data collection process. If your data is rubbish your analysis is going to follow so check out gridscore.hutton.ac.uk
- Double act with my colleage @malcolmacaulay.bsky.social talking about technology supporting barley research within the @intbarleyhub.bsky.social . Unforunately I don't have a picture of @malcolmacaulay.bsky.social so you will have to make do with me looking like I know what I am talking about :-)
