I asked the Science Minister @CommonsSITC how he would address the financial mismanagement at @STFC_matters resulting in consistent overspends and cuts. He denied it was mismanagement but confirmed the ambition should be that predicted expenditure meets actual expenditure.

Of course, if they said that’s what they were doing, then we could debate whether that’s necessary or good. To pretend that it’s all the result of bad planning seems like such a Sir Humphrey wheeze. “No cuts were made… they just somehow happened in the absence of any decision”

"The UK risks moving in two directions at once: announcing major investments in future technologies such as quantum computing while simultaneously weakening parts of the fundamental research ecosystem that produce the relevant expertise" 🧪🔭 #UKRI nature.com/articles/d41586-0…

Well done Stefan! 🥳 Looking forward to working with you here in Durham!
Congratulations to particle physicist Dr Stefan Schacht who has been awarded a prestigious Ernest Rutherford Fellowship by @STFC_Matters. Stefan will join @IPPP_Durham @DurhamPhysics to investigate the most basic building blocks of our Universe! 👉 brnw.ch/21wK1hV

IPPP is supporting a limited number of UK researchers participating in this workshop by covering their conference fees. Support will be provided on a first come, first serve basis, with support for 4 participants remaining. @DannyD82 is the IPPP contact person for this workshop.
Dear friends, we are still running a little bit on the low side of numbers of participants for this amazing event - please distribute the announcement. This is also a great opportunity for more junior researchers to present their work indico.physik.uni-siegen.de/…

Protons, assume position. It’s #BeamTime!🫡 Today, the Large Hadron Collider (#LHC) received the first particle beams of 2024. This is the third year of #LHCRun3, and the new data-taking season is about to begin…

We are very happy to host another edition of the UK Annual Theory Meeting here in Durham. With over 150 participants, we have clearly bounced back from the complications due to COVID over the last years.

After a brief coffee break, we now transition into the final session of this year's meeting. Andrea Banfi is reporting from the Particle Physics Advisory Panel and we will have some discussions now and in the subsequent STFC townhall meeting.

And that's it! Michael Spannowsky just closed the meeting with a few remarks. We look very much forward to host the UK theory community again next year. We wish a safe trip home to all participants!
