What a great seminar by Pauline Gagnon! Mileva's story (Albert Einstein's first wife) should be told and we should acknowledge that Albert and Mileva worked together to formulate those great theories and Albert took all the credit.

Advances in brain cancer research are happening due to organisations such as @LDShospcharity who have been instrumental in supporting my work. Huge thanks to them, my other funders (@RCSnews) and my research team @SCBT_Research @LeedsNeuro @CritchleyGroup. Paper to follow soon!
During Brain Tumour Awareness Week, we want to acknowledge your donations that helped fund brain cancer research at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust. In 2021, we granted £200,000 to Christopher Fudge's research on glioma cells and tumour recurrence after surgery.

I have worked hard to make science more inclusive. Science needs diverse researchers with varied interests & skills, and should apply itself to solving diverse global problems. As far as I'm concerned, if the government wants to 'kick out the woke', they'll need to sack me.

So sad :-(
Really sad to hear about the loss of this famous tree, in a mindless act of eco vandalism. On a day when we’re hearing about how much biodiversity we have lost in recent decades, the felling of this tree stands for all that loss.
