My goodness.
This is an incredible watch - if the pilot had ejected whilst banked over, they would have been killed. Great presence of mind in an exceptionally dynamic situation.

This is amazing opportunity for a PhD synthetic organic chemist looking for a post doc position.
💥💥💥 BIG news in the Coxon lab 💥💥💥 There is a 3 year PDRA position in lipid synthesis available with me starting in the new year. This is a really exciting project working in collaboration with @YvonnePerrie group. DM me for more details
Very proud of, but not at all surprised, one of our trustees. A real STEM outreach legend across Scotland. Well done, Ken.
So proud to be honoured by this award and to be part of @FLLUK team @MSIPDundee #FLLScotland #cargoConnect @ESPScotland Team work really does make the dream work! #CARGOCONNECT
We have a question? Will naproxen be absorbed in the stomach or intestine? Hint. It is a carboxylic acid with a pKa around 4? Just kidding. We echo what everyone else has said. A pleasure to work with you and good luck.
I will be starting a new role as @RoySocChem Programme Manager for Socioeconomic Inclusion It has been a privilege and pleasure to work alongside each & every one of you & I thank you for all of your support over the past 4 years Please get in touch if you have any questions👇

Gertrude picking up some flies. Summer must be on its way..,
This was such a fantastic way to end our outreach activities here at theskylab with the @RoySocChem outreach fund
Those magnificent chemists & their flying machines ✈️ A group of chemists & RSC members held an outreach event at Imperial War Museum Duxford – showing members of the public the role played by chemistry in fighting the Battle of Britain.
