We're excited to share that you can now watch Adam's recent @pintofscience.uk talk on demand via the University of Sheffield Player 🎥. Follow the link below to find out how the brain "talks back" to the ears! 🧠👂 🔗: player.sheffield.ac.uk/events/how-b... #Pint25

Have been giving a lot of thought to story-telling pedagogies recently. It was great to put some of this into action for #Pint25 @pintofscience.uk talk on Phage research and DNA sequencing, and then share my thoughts with the @microbiologysociety.org Check out the blog article linked here:

Senior Postdoc Sibel Cal Kayitmazbatir shares the experience of taking part in Shots of Science and the importance of sharing research beyond academia! Check out her blog post here tinyurl.com/yjy7tz4f @pintofscience.uk @livunihls.bsky.social @livuni-ilcams.bsky.social

🆕 | @uofgsii.bsky.social's Dr Megan Macleod recently partnered with @glasgowschoolofart.bsky.social's artist Jane Topping for a fascinating display exploring immunological concepts at @pintofscience.uk's ‘Creative Reactions’. 🔗 Full story: www.gla.ac.uk/schools/infe...

How does the brain talk to the ears? Can bacteria help grow better crops? From melting ice to underground fungi, these short talks from @sheffielduni.bsky.social researchers at this year's @pintofscience.uk events are now online. Watch them all on The Player: bit.ly/4lrPIWY #PintOfScience

I did @pintofscience.uk last week. My talk was about Heisenberg's abandonment of Newton's classical orbits 100 years ago on Helgoland. Around the time I found myself describing Kepler's Mysterium Cosmographicum as his pre-breakbout concept album I realised I might be a massive ham. Loved it

Last week I had a great time at Pint of Science talking about all things biofilm! I spoke about why biofilm research is important and how it affects your every day life. Thanks to all the organisers for this fab experience!! #pint25 @pintofscience.uk @quadraminstitute.bsky.social

Very proud of my PhD student, @isobelgrimley.bsky.social for her successful @pintofscience.uk talk on medieval childhood frailty at Bradford's Theatre in the Mill last week. 👏 @bradarch.bsky.social @uniofbradford.bsky.social @bradford2025.co.uk NB: a replica skeleton was used for this event.

Fun evening at @pintofscience.uk, talking dinosaurs over a cold Guinness and showcasing the work of our awesome Edinburgh students! First @adammpalaeo.bsky.social wowed the crowd with his keynote on dinosaur brains, and then our student panel captivated everyone with a discussion on their research.

A great time at @pintofscience.uk last night watching @dranipermana.bsky.social teach us all about orangutan nest building and then expertly judge our own nests! Turns out I need to spend a bit more time in the forest to get the hang of it.

Outstanding talk by @helenanorman.bsky.social for @pintofscience.uk on the nature of sleep in fish and other animals. Incredible that we know so little about this vitally important process. More to come from this fantastic scientist!

Amazing evening talking science @pintofscience.uk in Birmingham Was really great to present some of the amazing data from @halllab.bsky.social Also credit to the organisers for such an amazing venue !

Thanks @pintofscience.uk for an excellent evening. So many interesting and insightful questions. Think I need to put videos of the dog refusing to take her pills in every medication adherence talk

That's a wrap on night 2 at Cosy Dove for @pintofscience.uk 2025, just one more night to go. All our events are sold out now 😲 so who is coming to @thecommonroomgn.bsky.social tomorrow night? #Pint25 #PintOfScience #PintNewcastle #STEM #TwoDown #OneToGo @pintsworld.bsky.social

Great event yesterday at the @pintofscience.uk in Norwich. We looked at electrifying microbes in an anaerobic environment but also at the definitions of infinite and its implications in cosmology. What's better than drinking beer and listening to science?
