@NickKyrgios Love your work mate

[Belle II Experiment @belle2collab]

The Super B-Factory Era has begun! SuperKEKB has reached an instantaneous luminosity of 2.22 x 10^34 cm^-2 s^-1, breaking the record held by the LHC since 2018. This is a major milestone en route to providing Belle II a 50-fold increase in data sample size compared to Belle.

@neiltyson No one person caused 500 medical errors.
No one person caused 200 vehicle deaths.
No one person committed 200 suicides.
No one person killed 40 people with a handgun.

One asshole with a high powered rifle killed 20 people in El Paso.

See the fucking difference.

This an awesome bit of physics you can do from the comfort of your bedroom! #physics #unimelbscicomm

The Belle II collaboration is proud to be a supporter of International Day of LGBT+ People in STEM. We support and value our LGBT+ collaborators, and we are committed to making Belle II a safe and inclusive collaboration that values people's individuality. #Belle2 #LGBTSTEMDay

Here at the @unimelb School of Physics, we have the best #dryice disposal methods! @scimelb #unimelbscicomm

[Cate MacQueen @cmqcentaurus]

Had heaps of fun playing with the #cloudchamber with the @unimelb @SciMelb #workexperience week kids in the #particlephysics stream! Thanks to the Laby Foundation for funding tus cloud chamber for us!

[Lachlan Milligan @LachMilligan]

Staring at stuff in the sky for year 10 work experience, and telescopes for schools with @astrobarney @JunkMatter @GrantApplctns

[Cate MacQueen @cmqcentaurus]

The #aftermath with our #dryice was also very fun! Thanks @LachMilligan and @DTMarcantonio for this! @SciMelb @unimelb #workexperience #particlephysics

Last time I had gastro I definitely felt like this. @JordanSLWC, if you're research could stop this norovirus from infecting people so much (5 times on average) by studying our gut microbiome, maybe we can prevent accidents like this in he future #unimelbscicomm

Sometimes I can't work out song lyrics just by listening, but @KayaBMoore is going the extra step and working out what birds are saying when they sing. What is the link b/w the sex of a bird and whether or not it sings? #UniMelbScicomm

@jonathanvnlay is keeping his eyes peeled for new diagnostic tools for Alzheimer's disease - using eyes 👀. If he can find a way to make an early diagnosis, it could fast track a treatment for a disease that costs Australia $15 billion a year #UniMelbScicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

Ovarian cancer is much more deadly than breast cancer. @m_hendleyy is working on a new approach to treating this disease using immunotherapy. #UniMelbScicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

@eb_rocchi is making sure we know all about Fat Tailed Dunnart's gonad formation - this could be an important step in conservation work for many marsupials! #UniMelbScicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

While this lazy koala naps, @alice_nicholl is hard at work finding out how we can better direct conservation efforts by looking at how different types of data change how we approach setting aside conservation areas #UniMelbScicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

@a_ritter_darkly could be the shining light that guides us to a cool new dark matter theory 💡🔦 #UniMelbscicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

@robinsonmc91 a lot of my relatives have worked on sheep farms and I've heard first the impact shearing work can have on health. Improving working conditions with roboticd could revolutionise shearing and make shearers' lives much more comfortable. #UniMelbscicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

@Mcamwon could revolutionise the local production of particle board by using grape vine prunings from vineyards. This could help the environment and maybe even make better particle board! That's something I'll pour a glass of wine to 🍷🍷 #unimelbscicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

@lauratownhop is getting us data on bandicoots so we can help save this important (and cute) national icon! #UniMelbscicomm

[Daniel Marcantonio @DTMarcantonio]

Another exciting inSTAWELLment in the dark matter saga from @LachMilligan! He's going to make sure our dark matter detector doesn't find gamma rays by mistake! #unimelbscicomm
