I must go down to the sea again
The lonely sea and the sky.
But given that it’s all covered in shite
I can’t think of a reason why.

I see this thread has hit a nerve, so perhaps useful for some clarifications. As far as I know, I am not currently at risk of redundancy, since I am fortunate to work in a field where I have been able to win grants recently. However, I feel very strongly for colleagues at risk..

[Jo Griffin @JGriffinScience]

@LiverpoolGuild @LivUni @LivUni_IVES @LivUniLibrary do you know what's happened with student ID cards? PhD students who require daily access to labs have had their card reprinted? Currently no access for students and no warnings given.

[DORA @DORAssessment]

For information: DORA is aware of reports regarding the use of metrics in relation to proposed redundancies at @LivUni and is in dialogue with the university. (1/2)

[Rudi Verspoor @RVerspoor]

An open letter from Early Career Researchers in the Department of Evolution, Ecology, and Behaviour in opposition to the proposed redundancies of 47 academics in @livuniHLS @ULivUCU2 DM me if you would like to add your signature #HLS47

Closely related #Drosophila species respond differently to novel #Spiroplasma infection and compatibility phentoypes evolve independently to one another. New preprint with @gerth_micha and @TheLadybirdman.

@PeteBentley @tomsizmur @liz_hurrell Congrats Pete! 🥳🥂🍾🎉🎊

[FG1 @FGriffin99]

A huge thank you to the members of the @philharmonia orchestra for their exceptional playing in @GarsingtonOpera's production of Fidelio using my arrangement broadcast on @BBCRadio3 last night and now available on @BBCSounds. They were socially distanced! Brilliant playing!

[Garsington Opera @GarsingtonOpera]

Lovely to see how many people enjoyed #GOFidelio last night on @BBCRadio3.

Available for 30 days: https://t.co/RxtJY6vNNH

@philharmonia playing @FGriffin99’s extraordinary 13 player arrangement.

[Garsington Opera @GarsingtonOpera]

@philharmonia @BBCRadio3 With exquisite arrangement of Beethoven’s score by @FGriffin99

@BBCRadio3 @kat_broderick @dougieboyd @KateMolleson @FGriffin99 Where was the credit for Francis Griffin who created the reduction which you praised so highly?!

[Katherine Broderick @kat_broderick]

@alice_j_s @GarsingtonOpera @FGriffin99 @BBCRadio3 @KateMolleson @dougieboyd I was lucky enough to meet him after the first performance. He did such an amazing job. We wouldn’t have had a show without his fabulous reduction 🙏 bravo!

Our article has now been accepted! The strength of Spiroplasma-mediated fly survival against several Leptopilina wasp strains is independent of #Spiroplasma strain. @TheLadybirdman 🪰

[University of Liverpool News @livuninews]

A new study by @livuniHLS researchers highlights some of the #STEM career barriers faced by individuals from minority groups.

The survey found that a person's ethnicity & socio-economic background, in particular, can impact on career progression.

[Dr. Chelsea Little @ChelskiLittle]

.@klarawanelik @JGriffinScience @Zen_of_Science et al make this connection: "ethnic minority groups reported fewer other-author publications upon finishing their PhD" ➡️ "having fewer publications... translated into apply[ing] for more positions in order to secure a postdoc"
