July 1921, Dr. Frederick Banting makes a breakthrough discovery on treating diabetes by injecting insulin. This paved the way for the production of synthetic insulin. Without that breakthrough, Diabetics would not be where they are today.

Back to school? At BAS, that's Back to Pre-Deployment Training 💪

Here's the lovely crowd who'll be working at our Antarctic and sub-Antarctic Research Stations over the next summer and winter seasons.

They're all at BAS HQ learning about everything from biosecurity to first aid. Say hello! 👋

It’s the ciiircle of life 🎶🐧

This #PenguinAwarenessDay say hello to these fresh new gentoo penguin chicks.

Hatched in the Square Pond Colony near Bird Island Research Station, these penguins live on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia. What a loud start to life!

The extraordinary 700-year old #bleedingyew at the 14th century St Brynach's Church in #Nevern, Pembrokeshire. It has been “bleeding” for as long as anyone can remember with a blood-red sap. www.nevern-church.org.uk/the-bleeding...
