Thank you to you and the team for organising this wonderful monthly event!
My first ever long talk! I had a lot of fun putting it together, and plenty of fun delivering it. I look forward for more chances to improve my public speaking skills!
Watch below to hear my talk on why mucus is still a hot topic.

It was a pleasure! I can't wait to work on a new talk for you!

Looking for some nerdy drawing fun over the next few weeks?
My Xmas & New Year zines are available to download for £1 (or more) and you’re welcome to print as many copies as you want!
They’re A4 but I’m told can be printed on Letter paper & trimmed

I'm #PhDone! I had a wonderful day discussing my work on goblet cell responses during parasite infection 🤧🪱 After a really pleasant and exciting viva, I got to spend the evening celebrating with friends from all different areas of my life. Onto full-time sci-comm!

My video from FameLab is now up! In 3 minutes, I aimed to convince the audience that nature's supermaterial mucus deserves so much more research!
I was extremely nervous, but I'm determined to keep bringing mucus to the masses!

Fantastic news and so well deserved, Erin!
A row of five enamel pins in the shape of six-petal flowers in nonbinary, pan, bi, trans, and LGBTQ+ flag colours. Each is on a backing card that reads "A perfect flower by canopy robin. Did you know that 90% of flowering plants have individual flowers with both male and female parts. Botanists call this a perfect flower." The bi flower's backing card is purple and the others are green.
Did you know that bisexual flowers are perfect? Botanists do.
My latest pin celebrates the fact that 90% of flowering plants have individual flowers with both male and female parts. Botanists call these 'bisexual' or 'perfect' flowers. Please share!

I'm writing my thesis and wrapping up this PhD, but I've been extremely blessed in my final year to receive awards and recognition for my public engagement and sci-comm work.
Thank you to everyone who supported and nominated!

What came first, the scientist or the journalist? Great first panel for #abswss25 discussing career journeys into science journalism. 2 perspectives from a science background and 2 from a journalism background. @absw.bsky.social
Amazing shortlisted colleagues on the EDI award @britsocimm.bsky.social - @pallettlab.bsky.social & @mcsinton.bsky.social lead important initiatives and I’m always inspired by this. Well done to everyone!
This was a real surprise, and I'm so grateful. The support I've had has been phenomenal and it's giving me the courage to keep going and recognise "hey, I'm actually quite good at this". Thank you @britsocimm.bsky.social for this lovely award.
Thank you so much Juan! I wouldn't have done half the things I've achieved without the encouragement I get from you and others!
Rectangular pins with rounded corners and text that reads "ask me about allyship" or "Real allies take action" on the trans pride flag, intersex inclusive progress pride flag, and a plain black background.
We're halfway through Pride so now seems a good time to drop a pin that people have been requesting: something for allies.
The thing is though, I'm not interested in selling a traditional ally pin that allows just anyone to claim they're on our side, so lets talk about that 🧵

Thank you Juan!!! You've been amazingly supportive!
I'm representing North West at the @FameLab national final on 6 June!
I'll be bringing the gross factor to my talk on mucus, alongside nine other amazing speakers covering a wide range of science topics.
So excited to show Cheltenham Science Festival attendees what I'm all about!

Thank you so much, Juan!
I am so pleased to announce that I have been shortlisted for the @britsocimm.bsky.social Public Engagement Award. I have worked really hard on supporting PE initiatives, as well as building my own ( @reshiveblog.bsky.social ), so this is really exciting for me!

I'm now on Instagram! No idea what I'm doing, but hopefully I can make it educational and fun. 🧪

I was so excited and humbled that friends from different areas of my life all came to support me. Especially my partner who has never missed a single important moment for me. I worked hard for this, but I'm also so lucky to have them back me up.
#SciComm #PhDSky #FameLab
Nothing like tackling a public speaking fear than a public speaking competition. I am so thrilled and shocked to have won the #FameLab North West final.
Everyone was amazing and I hope you're all proud. Looking forward to learning and improving ahead of the national finals!!

What makes a great leader? Confidence? Charisma? Jiya from @alliancembs.bsky.social explains that psychology points to something else: Emotional intelligence and understanding people. Have any stories on good/bad leadership? Let us know below!

Scientists and politicians need to communicate if we want helpful scientific advancements to make it to everyday life. Federica looks at the links between science and policy and the current barriers to efficient cross-talk.

When the PhD goes wrong, it can feel like the end of the world. Dead ends and failed experiments are hard, but often inevitable. Elan writes about her experience and tips for managing stress in these situations, emphasising community. Talk it out!
