@sydneypadua This happens periodically (😉) as new people discover them and then they start appearing in new timelines etc etc. It's all rather lovely! #WholesomeTwitter

Hope you're keeping well @sydneypadua ! Best wishes, Cathy & 🐧

@lea_bei The project as a whole ended in 2019, yes, and though I believe the Science Gossip research had been completed before this time it was still actively used in public engagement etc. Sally Shuttleworth could give a definitive answer on this if you email her.

Dear followers, be sure to retweet this with abandon - you could win the @conscicom book!

[Jon Topham @JonTophamHPS]

Since the fantastic #HistSciFest organized by @BSHSNews is happening digitally, and we can’t show off our new @conscicom book in person, I will give an ebook copy to one randomly chosen person from among those who retweet this message before 16 July 2020.

Informative thread about botanist & mycologist Mordecai Cubitt Cooke — the recent subject of #MycoBookClub.

"Hardwicke's Science-Gossip" was one of the periodicals included in our #ScienceGossip @the_zooniverse project with @conscicom ➡️ https://t.co/dzBkgTqORK

@drmrwale @BioDivLibrary Thanks Matt. That's a great image of plant-insect interaction too! I take the opportunity to advertise Matt's work on 19th century #enthist which can be found in this great @conscicom volume on periodicals: https://t.co/oOXIbwqvu8 which was just published @UChicagoPress

[conscicom @conscicom]

We haven't taken this ourselves but this #free #online @edXOnline course looks like it might suit some #ConSciCom followers?
Any other suggestions @sydneypadua?

@CuratorGeoff @conscicom @alexcsiszar @drmrwale Such a great team to work with! And Karen Darling and her team at @UChicagoPress did such a great job. You can get a sneak preview of the book on Google Books. https://t.co/OoY260C3Nq

If you're near the @royalsociety visit the 'Fiery Earth: the volcano and the Royal Society' exhibition in the #library - a collaboration between @conscicom & the RS 🌋
Why #Krakatoa? Observing it was one of the first worldwide #CitizenScience initiatives!

[conscicom @conscicom]

The #exhibition features the @royalsociety committee report, a letter from a citizen scientist (Miss Allen of Zanzibar) and much more!
