LIYSF President, Professor Clare Elwell and Director Richard Myhill were invited to meet our royal patron, HRH The Princess Royal at Buckingham Palace today.

It was a pleasure to see LIYSF recognised in this way at his Majesty's Garden Party.

Had a great time running a lab practical for @LIYSF at @UniofBath @LifeScienceBath introducing students to biofilms and their importance in UTIs. We had fun playing around with colorful tubes doing a urease assay and biofilm staining! 🧪

I had a rare opportunity of giving a lecture this morning at the 64th London STEM Summer Camp @LIYSF

It was a completely different experience for me speaking to young people aged 16-21 years old from 84 countries.

Every fraction of a degree matters.

Every day matters.

Limiting global temperature rise is still possible, but only through concrete, urgent #ClimateAction.

[Plantlife @Love_plants]

Some politicians are turning their backs on the environment, at a time when action is most needed❌ 🌎

We’re calling on politicians to keep their promises for nature💚

There is something horribly ironic about an electric car charging point on plastic grass on a flattened, denuded front ‘garden’. Modern eco-thinking?

Price given a 12 month custodial sentence, with the judge recommending he spends half of it in jail. Also ordered to pay £1.25M in costs, including £655000 for habitat restoration, though in truth no amount of money will bring the habitats & species back. https://t.co/nJzXTmgE8m

Come on @Poundland, get the poisons off the shelves!

This gets on my wick. Why are we dousing our towns in cancer causing chemicals instead of using a strimmer a few times a year? #PesticideFreeTowns
