PhD student interested in Alzheimer's disease. A fan of hip-hop and football, with a mediocre knowledge of both.

@NorwoodTrash @chris_hawkins You didn't let me approach him after a loud shout of "that's Stewart Lee!", so I can't confirm sadly

Our commentary written by @ClaireDurrant1 @TSpiresJones and I is now online! We discuss a new antibody against oligomeric tau, that showed efficacy in both cellular and mouse models, following intranasal delivery (in the mice not the cells lol).

A piece I wrote in 2012 offering a Manchester United perspective on the Hillsborough disaster on this day in 1989. It was published in the ⁦@FCUnitedMcr⁩ match day programme to show solidarity with those campaigning for justice ✊ #jft97 https://t.co/A1n9z3A8lG

@Keir_Starmer And you are too weak to call for a ceasefire to stop an extremist regime killing thousands of civilians

[greg wheildon @GregWheildon]

Really pleased to have passed my viva and couldn't have done it without the great support of my supervisors, especially @katielunnon. The rest of the @Dementia_Omics lab got me here too. An amazing bunch of people

"Hostile" is an inappropriate way to describe domestic & sexual abuse charities in stakeholder mapping, but especially in this case.

We have worked on our football campaign for over 10 years, & work with both clubs & orgs, on an issue that is prevalent throughout our society.

Tonight’s match was dedicated to @alzheimerssoc, raising vital funds to those devastated by dementia.

"Bullying is a means for mediocre scientists to rise to the top. Some star academics reached their position because they are bullies, not in spite of it." - Excellent piece about bullying in academia (and really any other professional environment). https://t.co/JTqGBaAuuf
