@samanthorium @taro3yen @lkp48 Ha, I think Leyden jars are wonderful, thanks @samanthorium. I remember trying to make one when I was younger, from tin foil and a milk bottle, it didn't work out too well. I'm not sure I can find one for a photo, but I'll keep my eyes peeled.

So proud and excited to announce that @cardiffPHYSX @cardiffuni has just become the first University in Wales to become an @IOPDiversity Juno Champion! Working for better equality and diversity for all in Physics. @PhysicsNews @IOPWales #JunoPhysics

[Dan Read @drdanread]

Thank you for the thought @telescoper
I'm pleased to say that despite my magnet obsession this is one of the few places I haven't got them stuck!

Woman: like men, but cheaper

An excellent placard highlighting the #genderpaygap at @cardiffuni ... it’s a shame we don’t have data to talk about a #BMEpaygap I know this is something that @SusanCousins6 would like to rectify
