Hi everyone! I deleted twitter for a few days but I’m back for some shameless self promotion! Listen to episode 12 of The control and the variable! We interviewed Prof Ranjit Lall from @warwickuni about her well established career and being a WOC in science!

Bit of advice for junior scientists: thinking about your experimental design is good, and most of us should do more of it, but sometimes just doing the experiment helps move things forward in ways that you can't anticipate, no matter how much reasoning goes into it.

Why not support Runnymede Foodbank by donating unopened food items at one of our collection points by the end of term? You can donate at key points around campus, including in the Davison building and in many academic buildings.
