Weird squirly sea creatures attached to mussel nettings near Lysekil, Sw... https://t.co/UFx9vzXg4u via @YouTube I wonder if these are the same as this guy. Anyone knows what this creature is?

The trick to not fearing death is to never really be that chill with life.

Great to see our PhD student Krystyna Piela presenting her work at the first Haleon Science symposium on Oral Health. @GlasgowBiofilms @UofGDental

There are hundreds of software tools available for research right now.

But in reality most of them are not worth your time.

Here are 8 tools that I've actually use, that can super-charge your research productivity.

One of our points made to @uksciencechief is that we must study neglected parasitic diseases as a parasite may well cause the next pandemic. @WCIPGLASGOW @wellcometrust

This👏🏼needs👏🏼to👏🏼change👏🏼!

Evaluate and hire people based on their experience, skills, knowledge, critical thinking, the way they inspire you and even the way they can make you better at your own job!

Cultural bias exists in most of us, but we NEED to do better!

Do better!

This is in many ways a typical Pratchett photo - Mum is holding a cat, I’m trying to pretend it’s not happening and Dad has boomerang sticking out of his head.

Is it normal/okay to email a professor telling them you really enjoyed the class and learned a lot? I really enjoyed this course and would love to express my gratitude to my professor, but idk if that like weird or frowned up, you know? :(

The work of the talented and hard-working @Mabel_Tettey is out 👌🏻. More evidence of secreted peptidases being key players in driving QS in T.brucei.

Santhasiri Orrapin, a Thai PhD student, visited us to train in #proteomics. The visit was curtailed by the pandemic, but she was able to generate data for use in her thesis and this paper: doi: 10.3390/molecules26227011. Congratulations to Dr Orrapin! @Thetoadwork
