Loads of great posters on show here at Climate Change and Marine Ecosystems summer school. Here’s me with mine, but in particular I enjoyed learning about the local ecology and oceanography of the South China Sea.

In the early 1800s, Victorian artists and microscopists would rearrange diatoms (microscopic single-cell algae encased in beautiful glass shells) into intricate patterns on glass slides. This feels like the pixel version.

Excited to share my just accepted paper on American Naturalist @ASNAmNat journals.uchicago.edu/doi/ab… We discovered a mathematical identity equation to partition the slope of linear regression into within-group and across-group regression slopes, which can be useful in many cases.

Today we have live sessions for the @MHScot First Aid for Mental Health. We have discussed our aim to reduce stigma, learn practical intervention skills and foster a positive mental health culture in our community This was possible due to @NERCscience DEI Flexible Funding Award

Had a fantastic time - learned lots and enjoyed great company. Thanks to everyone who made it happen :)
Dr Dougie Speirs and Prof Mike Heath were at Ross Priory last week teaching on “Raising your Game: Developing Mathematical Modelling Skills” for PhD students in @SUPERDTP1. The weather was so good the students were able to work in the Ross Priory summer house 😎☀

A lovely evening bike ride to Ross Priory where I join @SUPERDTP1 for the ecosystem modelling course. Excited to be here for the week and to get back to coding after a couple of weeks of writing!
