Congratulations to Dr Yihua Hu, whose invention, the Home Energy Router, just won a Gold Medal at @Inventions_GVA🥇

Revolutionising the way we manage energy in the home, made together with DX Energy, the device could usher in a new age of sustainable homes. Congrats Yihua!🎉

For #KCLWomenInSTEMM season, we're asking our KCL women about how we can support more women in STEMM!

See what Dr Tayebeh Mousavi, Lecturer @KCL_Engineering, had to say about what would help 🧵⬇️

Our latest manuscript presents the most recent tools available in the PySoftK software package (https://t.co/ZYB0S7TH07). PySoftK now helps scientists analyse molecular simulations of soft materials, w/ tools for analysing interfaces, molecular interactions, & self-assembly 1/7

Our latest manuscript has been published in @ACS_Langmuir: https://t.co/1DFZja2ryg. In this manuscript we show that thanatin, a naturally occurring antimicrobial peptide, punches holes & disrupts bacterial membranes through multiple mechanisms, causing them to break apart 1/3

Our latest manuscript, where we show that C-terminal amidation of an antimicrobial peptide increases its conformational flexibility, which improves membrane penetration, leads to faster bacterial killing & better selectivity for pathogens, is available. https://t.co/KlB46tBmqH

"There's so much untapped knowledge about music and what music can do for us. For the first time in humanity's history, we have the tools to study it"🎶

Professor Elaine Chew reflects on how music could help treat more than a broken heart for @MIT_alumni ♥️🩺

We're recruiting! Come join us at the Crick - https://t.co/tBMFLNMOnn - we have a 12-month post for a synthetic chemist, bridging translation and basic science, using high-affinity binders; we will shortly advertise a 24-month post for a chemical biologist to work across projects

Dusty May joked about a Michigan fan needing to update the Wikipedia entry on efficiency to include Nimari Burnett.

Somebody went and did it.
