Great fun to be in the House of Lords this evening with fellow @ukyoungacademy.bsky.social exec group member @smeekings.bsky.social, to celebrate 25 years of the @royalsociety.org's pairing scheme between scientists and policy makers. Lovely to meet so many interesting people from both spheres!

It was a real pleasure to represent the UK Young Academy at a roundtable discussion on 'Science in Conflict Zones' at the @ria.ie Royal Irish Academy yesterday, organised by the Young Academy Ireland @yai.ie (organisers featured in the photo). Inspiring and thought provoking discussion!

A pleasure and a privilege to be at this UK Young Academy workshop @royalsociety.org today, part of this project ukyoungacademy.org/activities/a.... I am running a session on CVs, cover letters and interviews, with loads of help from amazing UKYA colleagues from other fields

The public does not care what department we work in, but how our research can make difference. Are we missing a trick when approaching public engagement from a discipline-focused angle?

It was fantastic to be at the Royal Society yesterday for the UK Young Academy second members meeting! Great to see old faces and meet the new members. Really exciting time as new projects begin and we mature as an academy!

One of the projects I launched in the last couple of years is a public engagement fund at Reuben college. I wonder if it is a first for an Oxbridge college? 1/n
