Busy day teaching evolution at the Natural History Museum (alongside a judgy fox)🦊 @milnerevolution.bsky.social

This is going to be an excellent talk. Can’t wait.

The first ALSO festival - on Autism, great minds and our failure to make space for them #autism

Great start to the day here in York. Some fantastic talks, workshops and networking opportunities. @stemlearning.bsky.social

I love being a humanist school speaker. Especially when I get lovely thank you letters like this 🥰 @humanists.uk

It's Evolution Fact Friday! Did you know that you can see evolution happening in real time? Our @bethmorillo-hall.bsky.social & @taylorlabgroup.bsky.social have developed #Evoscope, an education package for teachers to bring the process of evolution to life in real time! www.tes.com/magazine/tea...

A very cool laser harp demonstration at my monthly Cafe Scientifique. What a way to spend a Tuesday night!

Its here! Finally published. www.tes.com/magazine/tea...

🚨 Are you ready for something awesome? Of course you are. Something BIG is coming to schools… and it’s going to change everything. Kids. Evolution. One day. That’s all I’m saying… for now. 👀

Ever wonder how I make stickers? 🤔 Here I'm working with @bethmorillo-hall.bsky.social to make stickers for Evoscope 🔬

A brilliant video by the wonderful Professor Turi King. Well worth a watch. www.bbc.co.uk/videos/cy8ep...

Who would get rid of this gem? My gain!

UK friends! Please fill out this government form to have your say on science education. Evolution is fundamental to biology but remains a footnote in the curriculum. We need to raise its profile and push for biology to be valued as highly as chemistry and physics. forms.office.com/pages/respon...

Are you in Dorset on 8th March and want to go pond dipping? Well, you can....🪄

Err obviously it’s Costasiella kuroshimae! It's undeniably cute, but its incredible adaptations make it even more fascinating. Perfect for engaging children in lessons. I absolutely love it! Yes I’m in my 40’s and have a cuddly version. Don’t judge. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Tonight’s #DarwinDay lecture with @bengarrod.bsky.social was a masterclass in science public engagement. Brilliant!

Happy Darwin day! What better way to celebrate than spending the morning in a school as a Humanist speaker. @humanists.uk

#DarwinDayLecture @humanists.uk Perfect Friday night in with the pup.

HATE traditional research posters. Boring, inaccessible and anything but engaging. Here is my attempt at an alternative. Exciting times ahead for teaching evolution in the UK. 🧬

Finally! After YEARS of entering we finally got tickets to see the Infinite Monkey Cage. Yes I did have a nerd out.

This! This bundle of nonsense is the sole reason why I now know I can function on 6 hours sleep.
