- Very much enjoyed talking about the research of my brilliant colleagues during a visit to DMU @demontfortt.bsky.social by the AHRC's inspiring CEO @christophersmith.bsky.social
- Had a great afternoon, enjoying the launch of the @dmuleicester.bsky.social new Research & Innovation Institutes and UN SDG hub, including a couple of inspiring keynote speeches from @hetanshah.bsky.social and the UN's Sherry Aldis.
- Very much enjoyed getting to see Jonathan Bailey's witty and affecting Richard II @thebridgetheatre.bsky.social as well as spending some time in the sun beside the Thames & the Tower of London.
- Enjoyed seeing the latest RSC production of Hamlet tonight - not everything about the performance works, but Luke Thallon’s Hamlet is easily the most refreshing and exciting one I’ve seen in ages - alternately, energetic, comic and tragically fragile.
- Got to love Birmingham ❤️ - last night, while we got to enjoy some glorious Beethoven & Mahler, lots of excited young people were off to spend an evening with Sabrina Carpenter. Their outfits were much more exciting & colourful than ours!

- Reposted by siobhankeenanScientists now know that birds’ brains can contain elephantine powers of recollection. Some birds can store, or cache, tens or even hundreds of thousands of morsels in trees, or in or on the ground. Why don’t our memories work the same way?

- Reposted by siobhankeenanThe echinoid fossil in this 400,000 year old handaxe from Swanscombe, Kent, had quite a journey. Living over 65 million years ago it survived Cretaceous seas, fossilisation, Ice Age rivers, Neanderthal culture, more rivers, & quarrying to enter our scientific record. #FlintFriday #FossilFriday 🧪🦣🏺
