Just had a meeting with the Dean of my Faculty alongside the Head of Employee Relations... Apparently I am under official investigation for writing a blog about how bad universities are at marketing. You literally couldn't make this stuff up.

I'm organising an academic conference next month. Alas, one of our speakers has just asked to withdraw on the basis that I signed the open letter in support of academic freedom (see the case of Cofnas vs Ghent)

I've decided to narrate some of my published academic papers and put them on YouTube. This first one is an opinion piece on the myth of Interdisciplinarity in academia. First published in the Journal of Customer Behaviour (2024).

How might the proposed reforms to the Mental Health Act impact autistic people and people with a learning disability?
