A sneak peak at my latest project, an illustration celebrating the science that helps us explore the last movements of the #Wexford #Whale - otherwise known as Hope. Currently mounted in Hintze Hall at @nhm-london.bsky.social 🐳
Less than a week until this year's @mayodarkskies.bsky.social Festival! Here's a snippet from 2022 looking at lighting to preserve dark skies, and how nature is a gift for life!

This is our biggest result so far this year (IMHO)! 🔭🧪 The M87* #blackhole is clearly cocooned in a turbulent, magnetised plasma and we can now resolve it changing in real time (albeit slowly). Excitingly we plan to do the first 2 month "movie" campaign looking ever 3-4 days in spring 2026!
Groundbreaking new image! The EHT reveals the dynamic environment around black hole M87*.
The 2021 image shows a distinct shift in polarization patterns, tracing changes in magnetic fields near the event horizon.

Just one week until the @mayodarkskies.bsky.social festival! I'm excited to give a public talk, but also to see @paraphrasestudio.bsky.social again. Rae achieves the impossible by making insane visualisations of talks in real time! 🔭🧪Here's the one she made during my #blackhole talk back in 2022:

Good morning Bluesky! I lead the microbiological risk assessment team at the UK's Food Standards Agency, a non-ministerial department (yes, despite the name) with responsibility for making sure food is safe in England, Wales and NI (Scotland is Food Standards Scotland, who we work closely with).
