London, you were at your best today. Thank you to the passers by who stopped to pick me up off the floor, offer help and make sure I was ok. In a gloomy world it is lovely to be reminded of the goodness of strangers and to be made to feel safe when I was at my most vulnerable ❤️

Cool post and article for the knitters on here.
Physicists are fascinated by knitting because there's a lot of applicable science. A simplified model of how yarns interact shows that a piece of knitted fabric can have many stable resting states depending on its history of deformation. physics.aps.org/articles/v17...

A good thread with good questions from James.
My experience from both sides of the fence is that risk based funding is hard for HMT to support. Grants are already a tricky process with massive overheads for funders and applicants alike.
And providing commercial funding is just too painful

I've been thinking about the way we scale (or often fail to scale) innovations in the public sector. Would be interested in views. Particularly interested in finance mechanisms. 1/n
