As someone who couldn't have undertaken a PhD without funding, the AHRC scholarship I received (many years ago) was life-changing. It's incredibly concerning that the the next generation of prospective academics are being denied such opportunities. www.timeshighereducation.com/news/student...

It was an absolute pleasure to be on wonderful @gregjenner.bsky.social 's programme #YDTM Lovely to meet the delightful Celya AB. Found out more about Alexandre Dumas, the prolific author of the Three Musketeers and of MANY other bestsellers. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
