Was a pleasure to discuss my research and experience as a gay man in science as part of @BritSciAssoc's 2023 Smashing Stereotypes campaign. I'm lucky to work with a diverse range of very inspirational people both at @CardiffUni and @WeAreTheLoopUK 🏳️‍🌈 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 ♾️

Does anyone on #AcademicTwitter have any experience with conferencing/research visits in #Nepal? Planning a trip there in March but the Visa information is a bit confusing!

Is there no Christmas countdown promotional calendar in the UK this year @promega? How is a poor bioscientist supposed to get into the holiday cheer? 😭
18 month #Postdoc position in our group at @cardiffuni! We're developing new #catalyst-based materials to combat #periodpoverty. It's a really exciting cross-disciplinary project and our team is looking forward to working with you! bit.ly/3ihQ5Ym

Wait a second, these are not real error bars … the author literally just put the letter “T” above the bar graphs 😭
Sick to see Kerrang tweeting about my favourite Cardiff band 🤘 nice one @HimalayasBand #bigupwales #cymruambyth
“The song is about potentially never waking up again and the effect that has on you once you’ve woken…” Watch the video for HIMALAYAS’ new single From Hell To Here 👉 youtu.be/Uyb1lI7XkP4

Was lucky enough to co-write a chapter for this with @FMeasham. Looking forward to reading the chapters from the other authors. The cover art is sick too @petefowlerart! #drugs #policy

Is the're a reason why the BMC is so wibbly wobbly @strategyzer? I like the tool but the workflow seems a bit disjointed considering the order that your videos suggest to complete it in! #startup #businessmodel #entrepreneurship
10/10 set @MetrikMusic please come back to Cardiff soon 🔥🔥
Glad to see peer-to-peer #Naloxone programmes are now in place across Wales 💪 A compassionate, sensible and evidence-based #DrugPolicy to protect the lives of people who use opioids. Even managed to spot @GBMC73 on TV! #Drugs #HarmReduction #SocialJustice
