1. I don’t often tweet about my personal life, but on 1st November, my mum Jane was hit by a large vehicle as a pedestrian in St. Louis, USA. She suffered a severe brain injury & remains in a coma in hospital.

Here's Jane & me in happier times.

In this blog, based on my research with deaf and disabled people's organisations in Uganda, I investigate why development institutions in Uganda (and elsewhere) appoint incomprehensible sign language interpreters who don't use local sign languages

Do you ever think about what your brain does when it's solving a puzzle? Two weeks ago, I was at @GreenManFest running “Mind Games: your brain on puzzles” in Einstein’s Garden alongside @CurlyFriedMaxMH, @Eva_Higg and @dralicemorrell

Fun times telling jokes about being a wannabe birdwatcher at @ScienceShowoff last week. Remember kids, don’t fuck with swans (or the Duolingo bird…) 🦢
