Getting ready for my Chief Scientific Adviser's Office seminar next month on @cv19heroes.bsky.social.

With a new addition from Dr Alexis Bennett, @natureresearch.bsky.social , analysing our free text across surveys. I can't wait to see this in print!

Excited to see this will be available soon!

Very proud to be among the excellent names in one of the most broad and comprehensive tables of contents I've seen in an academic collection.

Congratulations, @drnicolaholt.bsky.social and colleagues!

That's a wrap!! HUGE thanks to @royalsociety.org for organising such an interesting and informative week peeking behind the curtain of Parliament. I've learned a huge amount, and whilst I probably need to sleep for about a week now, I'm looking forward to putting it into action.

Day 4 of the #PairingScheme25 sees me working in the Home Office building with my Civil Service pair. I've presented our @cv19heroes.bsky.social work to her team, discussed critical workforce issues, and had a chat with the Chief Scientific Advisor. Oh, and I also got to see the Palace in the sun.

Day 2! Starting off with and excellent guided tour of the Palace of Westminster.

This is quite the experience for a Country Mouse.

A great first day at the @royalsociety.org today as part of the #PairingScheme25 listening to some interesting talks about the good work of the society and interfacing with policymakers. I feel very lucky to have been selected for this year's scheme. A big thank you to all the organisers!

I've had a top few days in the Psych department at UL with the most excellent @elainekinsella.bsky.social. We've made great headway on the @cv19heroes.bsky.social 5 Year Survey and future funding plans.

Amazing what two people can get done with some dedicated time! Thank you for having me, UL!

Unit 58 donated today!

Please #giveblood if you can.

My recent following has grown rather starkly (notifications off for now - iykyk) thanks to being added to two starter packs - one on mental health in medicine, and the other on academics with dogs.

So, to please my new following, here is Martin demonstrating the value of self care on a snowy day.

Housesitting for my mum for a few days. Martin is demonstrating the "why not both?" option of the nature/nurture debate.

Donation 58 done! And an extra special Mint Club from the fridge from my lovely NHSBT ladies at Gloucester donor centre.

Very excited to hear the number of institutions that have adopted my book so far - and even as far afield as Australia!

Thank you to all those who have reviewed it and adopted it to your courses, I'm so happy it contributes to the world of learning!

The geansai is out - Autumn has officially begun!

I've just come across a statistics training group called Stats Amore and now I want them to train me in everything they know. I don't even care if I'll ever use it or even understand it.
