Super article. Poignant and timely. As a mother and a scientist, it’s time to change the narrative. #epigenetics #women #pregnancy

Do you know how to spot and remove a tick?

Not all ticks in England carry the bacteria that causes Lyme disease. But it's still important to #BeTickAware and safely remove them as soon as possible, just in case.

Why is it that you can bake a passable cake, but as soon as you want to bake a cake for someone else, the universe conspires to pull off a kitchen disaster of nuclear weapon proportion? #cake #kitchen #facepalm #baking

[Leonie Grenfell @Len_Gren]

@SeanMcGrady Yup, there is now a small black hole in the bottom of my oven 🤣

[Leonie Grenfell @Len_Gren]

@emilyinkpen It was like a scene from all your sci-fi nightmares 🤣

@emilyinkpen Given the mounting climate crisis, "living underwater" might be more accurate than Busted may have imagined.

[Leonie Grenfell @Len_Gren]

@emilyinkpen It does, however, make for great later-snacking when you find half the bucket in your bra/belly button

[Leonie Grenfell @Len_Gren]

Just had the privilege of hearing @officialbarnesy speaking on @theJeremyVine 's @BBCRadio2. Impassioned, articulate and totally spot-on.

Is it just me, or are the shenanigans on mars absolutely mind-blowing? Bravo @NASAPersevere

[NASA JPL @NASAJPL]

JUST, WOW.😍
Grab the popcorn because the @NASAPersevere rover has sent us a one-of-kind video of her Mars landing. For the first time in history, we can see multiple angles of what it looks like to touch down on the Red Planet. #CountdownToMars
