Thanks to all the teaching-focused and professional services staff who subsidise, enable and support the researchers (but rarely get much credit) #REF

On this year's International #WomenInMathsDay we remember #PhilippaFawcett, the first woman to score the highest mark in Cambridge University's 1890 Mathematical Tripos, thus entering the feminist narrative on the capabilities and intellect of women, introduced by the suffrage.

sorry I didn't text you back for a month. darkness took me. and I strayed out of thought and time. stars wheeled overhead, and every day was as long as the life age of the earth. but I'm good now. how are you?

Delighted to announce the winner of this month's #LMCBImageoftheMonth competition. Congratulations Hugh Ford (Chubb lab)! The image is titled "The transition to spatial order" and shows the signalling state and motion of Dicty as they self-organise into their "streaming state".

Why the panic over vaccination passports ? When I first went overseas in 1966 everyone HAD to have a certificate proving you’d been vaxxed for Smallpox and Yellow Fever. I didn’t see it as an attack on my freedom.

Once again academics waiting on Australian Research Council funding decisions are in limbo. These are decisions that will literally determine whether some academic careers, like mine, can continue. Retweet if you think academics deserve certainty on when grants will be announced

Some seriously silly questions about "why Victoria" at the presser right now. Virus transmission is a highly stochastic (i.e. random) process. This type of rapid cluster growth was inevitable. That it has occurred here in Victoria is pure chance. Contact tracing efforts amazing.

I periodically show this graph to promotion committees. Divide the average citations of papers in life science by a denominator > 6 to get something comparable to citations in mathematics. (From IMU/ICIAM/IMS “Citation Statistics” p.8)
