Congratulations Siân!

[Keele Chemistry @keelechem]

Huge congratulations to Sian Woodfine, one of our wonderful @KeeleCSL technicians, for winning a Keele Excellence Award in the Outstanding Contribution category this evening. Truly deserved!

[BSc in Bioengineering @BScCTEkeele]

Nice to talk with our prospective BRM students and explain the key features of the Regenerative Medicine programme and tour the Central Labs facilities. Hope to see more people tomorrow morning. @PhaBResearch @KeeleCSL

[Keele Chemistry @keelechem]

Have a look at our new "Faces of Science" exhibition in the CSL. It showcases some of the extraordinary scientists, past and present, who have made pioneering achievements, broken boundaries, overcome adversity, and who continue to shape and inspire the future.

Photos of John are rare, but we managed to get one of him with his certificate after being shortlisted for the Lifetime Achievement Papin Prize! Unfortunately it's not the winner's trophy, but it's still an exceptional achievement! #HETS23 #PapinPrizes

[Keele Central Science Laboratories @KeeleCSL]

Sadly it wasn't to be for John, but we're so proud of him for being shortlisted and for his contributions to Keele over his whole career. Congratulations to all #PapinPrizes nominees and winners! #HETS23

[Keele Central Science Laboratories @KeeleCSL]

The keynote speech at #HETS23 is by Professor Sir Jonathan Van Tam, talking about his role in the response to the Covid-19 pandemic.

[Luke Hobson @GGEtechnician]

Today the technicians of @KeeleGGE have travelled to @warwickuni for #HETS23. Look out for our poster on providing for @KeeleUniversity's #Livinglab

[Keele Central Science Laboratories @KeeleCSL]

Today we're at #HETS23 for the technicans' summit - our technical manager John Clews is shortlisted for the Lifetime Achievement category of the #papinprizes, so fingers crossed 🤞!

[Keele Central Science Laboratories @KeeleCSL]

Over the next 2 days, we are looking forward to welcoming prospective students to Keele for our Open Days! Come and see us in the CSL if you're interested in @keelechem, @keeleforensics, @KeelePharmSci, @KeeleGGE @KeeleSCM or #KeelePhysics!

[Keele University Staff @KeeleStaff]

Congratulations to our CSL Technical Manager, John Clews, who has been shortlisted for a prestigious Papin Prizes Lifetime Achievement Award @MI_TechTalent

[Keele University 🐿️ @KeeleUniversity]

We’re continually investing in our students’ future, including the biggest-ever investment in science on our campus.

This includes our £34m Central Science and David Attenborough Laboratories - modern lab space used by students in their day-to-day laboratory teaching 🔬

[Higher Horizons+ @Higher_Horizons]

Y11 students from Discovery Academy visited Keele campus for a full day of science skills including light microscopy and forensic chromatography in the @KeeleCSL!

[Keele Central Science Laboratories @KeeleCSL]

Today we have a group of school students in for an outreach visit to do some forensic analysis on written notes and pharmaceutical drugs! @keeleforensics @Higher_Horizons

[Keele Chemistry @keelechem]

It's the last day in the lab for our project students today. They've put in lots of hard work over the year that they should be very proud of!

We obviously needed cocktails as the lab clock background today as a celebration 🍹

[Keele Central Science Laboratories @KeeleCSL]

@keelechem @Agilent We've suggested a "solution" and a "preparation" in similar past discussions!

[Keele Chemistry @keelechem]

What is the collective noun for technicians? A "troubleshoot of technicians" perhaps...

Exciting times this morning as our brand new @Agilent QToF mass spec is unloaded!
