Thread on competitively funded #PhD opportunities with my group and fantastic colleagues at @UniversityLeeds. Mostly @PanoramaDTP and #interdisciplinary and all #ecology, #conservation, #nature #wildlife #impact. Please do get in touch for chat, regardless of background (1/5)

Oh, I didn’t realise it worked like this! @grantshapps can I invoice you for the extra cost of my mortgage, energy bills and food which your party incontrovertibly caused?

So aside from not being able to manage the pension scheme, it turns out USS cannot even secure our data and now emails us with advice on cleaning up after their mess.
Can we bring a class action for breach of GDPR causing mental distress? I suspect we'd get >£1000 each if so?

🚨WE DID IT!
🥳100% MAB DEDUCTIONS REVERSED AT QMU!
Senior Management have backed down & we’ve called off our strike action.
This is a huge victory for our wee branch, & a successful de-escalation of a local dispute.
✊FRIENDS & COMRADES, IT CAN BE DONE!

I am beyond delighted to announce the launch of a new @coursera course in #Radar #Aeroecology: Exploring Biodiversity with Radar. It's a fascinating and important area of research with huge potential for global biodiversity monitoring. #MOOC #Biodiversity #COP15

[Online Courses at the University of Leeds @uoldigital]

New #onlinecourse exploring #aeroecology is now available on @coursera! Led by @katatrepsis this course will help you to develop skills in using #radar to explore #biodiversity. https://t.co/bhEqV0Vl6j

If you see #flyingants, either on the ground or up in the air, please report them to our #CitizenScience survey: https://t.co/uf3oqkFHks. Part of the @BiodarProject looking at how we can monitor #insects using #radar. @ChrisGPackham @WildlifeTrusts @Buzz_dont_tweet #flyingantday

I'm the one and only @Patreon supporter of @intoxecology! I don't know how they are going to spend the whole £1 I'm giving them each month, but I expect the #podcast to at least be renamed in my honour. Also, listen to them! They're great! #ecology #science #scicomm

[BioDAR Project @BiodarProject]

One of the @BiodarProject team, Chris Hassall @katatrepsis, was interviewed live on @SkyNews over the weekend talking about the project. Great to talk about #insect declines and cutting edge #science. The interviewer was clearly a fan! #GeeksAreGreat https://t.co/rUzog0F4Py

[Chris Hassall @katatrepsis]

...and we're live! Already some interesting personal perspectives on wildlife conservation from Australia, Malaysia, Canada, Germany, and across the UK. Looking forward to working with learners for the next few weeks #FLEcology #FLEWC @uoldigital @FutureLearn

Can you help us to understand what makes parks so valuable? https://t.co/9ewHTlHQGO (10 min survey, complete with interactive photospheres!)

[Chris Hassall @katatrepsis]

Can you spare 10 minutes to help us to explore attitudes to British parks, please? https://t.co/9ewHTlHQGO

Just thinking about this week's assembly.
If time is money then are cashpoints time machines?

It's back! It's alive! We've found the password down the back of the sofa, and the Sunday Assembly Leeds Twitter feed is go, go, GO!
