New analysis from the @royalsociety shows just how high UK visa costs for researchers are compared to upfront costs for similar visa routes in 13 other countries. Here, we take a look at how the UK compares to countries in the G7 included in the analysis 🔍⤵️ 1/5
Bar chart shows the upfront costs for similar visa routes for researchers in the UK, US, France, Italy, Germany and Japan. UK costs are multiple times higher than other countries and the biggest factor for this is the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS).

Reports of dengue have increased tenfold over the last twenty years. Nearly half of the world's population is now at risk. Here's why ⤵️📺

And that’s it! The end of an epic fieldtrip! The most stunning #snakes and scenery, enjoyed with some fantastic people. Some great samples collected for the project and lots of new ideas for research. Namibia - what an amazing place!

Excited to share a preprint I have been working on! Regulation of toxin expression in elapids in comparison to viperids! Both highly venomous snakes, but regulate the expression of their toxin genes differently- biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Distinct regulatory networks control toxin gene expression in elapid and viperid snakes

Venom systems are ideal models to study genetic regulatory mechanisms that underpin evolutionary novelty. Snake venom glands are thought to share a common origin, but there are major distinctions...
