@neverstraysfar Lizzie Deignan adds another perspective on pro cycling not covered by the existing team: a female pro-athlete's view. She's great!

Today marks the start of a new chapter in the history of Physiology @BristolUni as physiologists from @UoBPPN join the Medical School. A collage of photos including 1st Prof of Physiology, Albert Stanley Kent, whose name is given to an accessory pathway in the heart @BHIBristol

Are you a postdoc looking for a new opportunity in cellular cardiac electrophysiology?

Interesting opportunity @OfficialUoM!

@daniellloyd1 How did you frame the question? Gemini gave me what looked like a good answer:

@BBCRadio3 Essential Classics #PlaylisterChallenge. How about keeping the French bell thing going with the Air des Clochettes from Delibes's Lakme? Sabine Devieilhe s'il vous plait.

Loving Oscar Peterson's Stormy Weather. @BBCRadio3 @PetrocTrelawny

@LifeAfloat I strongly disagree. The stories of the challenges that you have undertaken have entertained and inspired many.

@AndrewLucas103 To be honest, until I received your message, I hadn't looked at the replies. Now I wished I hadn't looked! Goodness help us given the level of critical thinking evident. Are you abandoning social media altogether or switching to somewhere the sky is bluer?

Start from the beginning of the thread. Encouraging everyday physical activity is part of the solution.

[Professor Chris Whitty @CMO_England]

(1/6) Cities bring particular challenges and opportunities for the health of those who live, work and study in them.

This CMO annual report explores what we can do to improve health in cities:

Wonderful pictures of a bygone age. Thank you @CyclingLegends1 and @davidguenel

@CyclingLegends1 It’s a pic published a long time ago by Gallica of the twice winner of the Tour Dédé Leducq

[Andy James @AndyFJames]

'Amen' to this. But investment in local transport infrastructure is needed to encourage people to leave the car and use a bicycle or walk. Streets need to be designed to prioritise the vulnerable road user.

[Professor Chris Whitty @CMO_England]

(4/6) Physical activity is one of the best ways to improve and maintain good health.

Cities have shorter distances to everyday amenities making it ideal for active travel.

Improving walking, cycling and green space access would improve the health of our urban population.

We kriehen sturm! 🌬️
Forget the Tour de France: the Dutch Headwind Cycling Championships will be held on Dec 7! An 8 Bft storm will blow on the 9 km long Oosterschelde dam, and 300 racers will battle it on city bikes. We'll be there with the Geology of Shit Weather!
