I watched the online premier of the @beavertrust.bsky.social #BalancingTheScales yesterday. It was beautifully filmed and lovely to see such a complex story summarised.

I had such a fun #WhiskerScience day at Stroud Green Primary. The students have been learning all about different scientists, animals and the environment. Today was very much a whisker day! Amazing questions and fabulous posters from the pupils!

Happy new year from our Austrian holiday. I'm looking forward to getting stuck in to lots of research this year, as I'll be looking at some new whiskers, which will be exciting. A clue to who in the pic 😃 #WhiskerScience

I have been holding off on my first bsky post.... Wondering how I should introduce myself to the community... And then my husband got me this jumper and I think everyone should see it! The seals even have whiskers! Everyone needs some research-related clothing 😃🦭
