“….universities are all about nurturing the next generation of our scientific leaders”
On this day, 200 years ago, William Thomson, best known as Lord Kelvin, was born.
One of the most prominent figures in UofG's history, his influence is still felt through the inventions, innovation, and inspiration that shaped the world in which we live.

Urgent: searching for candidates for a funded PhD to develop tools and study receptor trafficking and synaptic plasticity in brain slices using advanced super resolution tools and glutamate sensors. Send motivation, CV and a reco letter. Pls RT @iins_bordeaux @Neuro_Bordeaux
This is a fascinating overview of the publication of Born and Wolf, a copy of which has sat on my shelf for many years. Bizarre to see the Robert Maxwell link! 65 Years of “Born and Wolf” disq.us/t/4oma9d6

Very happy to share our new work that published on Optics Letters, Temporal compressive edge imaging enabled by a lensless diffuser camera. It is also open accessed. Nice teamwork with @Fan_uts @AberdeenPhysics @JustLei2 #OSA_OL opg.optica.org/ol/fulltext.c… @OpticaPubsGroup
I reviewed two grants today, my first one on the new UKRI funding service and one for an internal review process by a overseas University (so their internal system). Three guesses which was easier to use, even after passing through Goggle Translate...#bringbackJeS

What can we do differently? Come away empowered. Inside white arrows on the right hand side is the event info: Friday 8 March, 10-4pm, at Linlithgow Burgh Halls, West Lothian.
This was a really positive event run by our chemistry PhD students and staff - a great introduction to the important role chemistry will play in the energy transition and also our new Science Teaching Hub facility.
We welcomed school pupils from across the north-east to our Science Teaching Hub for a series of sessions held in celebration of #chemistryweek 2023 - highlighting the role of chemistry in the energy transition and promoting careers in #STEM @RoySocChem abdn.io/eJ

This week our student, Anastatia Mayers, is launching into space on @virgingalactic's #Galactic02 space flight. To find out how she got her place onboard and how she's feeling ahead of Thursday's launch, read her interview here: fal.cn/3Aw8F Image: Virgin Galactic.

We discovered a surprisingly easy way to control the brightness of fluorescent proteins via magnetic fields:

Many congratulations to all Natural and Computing Sciences students who are graduating on the 26th of June!
One inspiring story amongst our previous alumni is Paralympic gold medallist Neil Fachie MBE, who graduated in 2006!
Read Neil’s full story at: bit.ly/3NsNsPE
Today I’m n Perth (the Australian one) visiting @CurtinUni to see some of their work in chemistry, physics, maths and computing. Curtin and @aberdeenuni have a strategic partnership and hopefully there are opportunities for better collaboration.
