@cjrw 🤣🤣 I’ve had two cars now with this ‘kit’ but never had need to use it.

Inspiring time at #ukatconf24 speaking on the journey we’ve been on developing a policy for personal tutoring @YourStMarys. Great to learn & exchange stories. Gathering @UniofGreenwich provides an impressive backdrop!

With just this sign on show and nothing else, presumably the ‘facility’ is actual no staff. I’m overwhelmed by this ‘provision’!

[Matt James @m4ttjames]

@michal_pruski I feel your pain! I think there is pressure across the sector for academia to demonstrate its worth. A sad state to be in imo. This leads to increased pressure to do more, with very little in return. Peer review is relegated to a ‘luxurious’ optional extra.

@MarkGriffin1970 Or … thinking creatively …. 77 if you join two up at an angle?! Slightly less time to wait!

A CRISPR gene editing 🧬 treatment has been approved for the first time ever. The UK's MHRA today greenlighted a treatment that can effectively cure sickle cell and beta-thalassemia - but is likely to be extremely expensive 🧵 1/3 #crispr

@Acko1963 @greateranglia 2/2 I doubt no one affected this evening wants to just post feedback for no action to be taken. @greateranglia what is the plan for reviewing & evaluating this eve, communicating what has been learnt and will be done differently? It’s that serious.

[Matt James @m4ttjames]

@Acko1963 @greateranglia 1/2 I agree @Acko1963 This evening was horrendous and lacked planning. Passengers have been let down. I’ve encountered previous @greateranglia rail replacement weekends and although inconvenient prev weekends involving Newbury Park were far smoother.
