Had a fantastic few days @BrookhavenLab doing some XAS with the wonderful @clairecorkhill @LukeTTownsend and the x-ray wizard Bruce! Lots of laughs, board games, and beautiful synchrotron photons!

Reminder about our video competition! With prizes of £300 up for grabs, why not make a video about your favourite mineral and how amazing it is? Just under a month until the competition closes!

@thetrainline have really disappointed me today, two trains cancelled between Sheffield and Stockport and a total of £16 in admin fees squeezed out of me to rebook on top of my ticket I already bought

Absolutely loved taking part at the @IFoG2022 in Stourbridge this weekend. Great fun seeing all the art that people have been making as well as talking to people about how the team @ISL_Sheffield are helping tackle the UK's nuclear waste inventory!

[Prof Claire Corkhill @clairecorkhill]

I super enjoyed talking at the @IFoG2022 today, about glasses formed in a nuclear meltdown (spoiler, they ain't pretty!). Also very proud of the @ISL_Sheffield team for their splendid job of talking with the public about glasses used in radwaste immobilisation. Well done all! 😁

@stephenbirch @ISL_Sheffield @msesheffield Hi Stephen! Thank you so much, it's been a great day! Hopefully I'll get to see you again at some point 😁

We are excited to launch the Environmental Mineralogy Explorer, our new quarterly newsletter to share news about the field. Hope you enjoy @MinSoc_UK @MineralCup

I so dislike the term "nuclear dump" - it couldn't be further from the truth, which is that a geological disposal facility is a highly technical, engineered affair. Also, the community can withdraw AFTER it receives investment, so how can that be a bribe? https://t.co/tCooprHxsC

@clairecorkhill Congratulations 😁👏

@ismailaldean I've seen this film before and don't like how it ends 😓

I'm convinced there is a defined age at which academics start referring to any schematic as a "cartoon"

First day wandering around Manchester to start at the CDT, feel like I'm a fresher again trying to find the right rooms!

Nuclear power. Low CO2 energy on the one hand, safety concerns and radioactive waste on the other. The Nuclear Dilemma. I worked with @JistStudios @bbcideas to make this excellent short intro film on the topic👇@msesheffield @sheffielduni @energyshef https://t.co/DxLkPT88lI
