What a privilege to give a plenary at this year’s European Society for the Study of Science and Theology, on ‘Rethinking English as Metalanguage in the Natural Sciences and Theology.’
Thanks to the ESSSAT organisers and lots of brilliant, generous conversation partners.

Yesterday, I spoke about extraterrestrials and religion at the @EdSciFest. I am also pleased to share that a handbook on this topic is forthcoming. Even more exciting, one of its co-editors, Caroline A. Sanz, is a recent PhD graduate of the School of Divinity (@uoedivinity).

Really pleased to know that I've been nominated for a teaching award by the Edinburgh University Students' Association.
The student who nominated me wrote: "Shoaib is outstanding! He is brilliant and always takes so much time to nurture the specific needs of every student. He is so committed to teaching and helping students reach their full potential. He is an inspiration and a credit to this institution."
Totally surprised, but alhumdulillah!
