@Specsavers, my daughter is a monthly lens wearer. Please supply smaller, easier to dismantle cleaning fluid bottles. Just needed a Stanley knife, sacrificial fork and personal injury to empty her unused fluid to recycle the bottles #sortoutyoursustainability#plastics#recycling
Did I see a post on an example of whole school learning for sustainability this summer? I can't find it! I know the GTCS connect session is upcoming, but this was a case study. #LfS
@KJF239@chatbiology When we visited JHI they still use a Sanger for lots of work as many researchers want to check short sequences. They use nanopore too for genomic analysis but less accurate overall?
TeamDaffDNA had a fabulous trip to @JamesHuttonInst where STEM partners generously gave their time to explain DNA sequencing, confocal and STED microscopy. We loaded #nanopore flow cells and saw super high res images @royalsociety#Partnershipgrants#DaffDNA
Loads of fun with Dr Ali Roberts testing the effect of pH on flower pigments, testing their solubility in oil and water and looking at them under the microscope. It was fab to hear her expert knowledge and experience her enthusiasm. #DaffDNA@royalsociety#Partnershipgrants
If you were delivering 40 mins slot on study skills in science for 6th form, what would be your top faves? Learning Scientists being done separately, so currently thinking of taking Cornell notes from Inside Science podcast @chatbiology#chatbiology
@chatbiology For Scottish Advanced Higher we do a guided day trip to our local estuary/dune system and practise transects, learn about bird migrations, and do ethograms on the seal haul
