[Geoffrey Hinton @geoffreyhinton]

I think Elon Musk should be expelled from the British Royal Society. Not because he peddles conspiracy theories and makes Nazi salutes, but because of the huge damage he is doing to scientific institutions in the US. Now let's see if he really believes in free speech.

@nuDocES I wish I didn’t have ears sat in this meeting

[MicroBooNE @Microboone]

Spot a friendly face among the awardees - congratulations to MicroBooNEr Abbey Barnard from @OxfordPhysics! Read an interview with Abbey about her work and what this award means to her here: https://t.co/tedBFxrl9T

SURPRISE!

[Institute of Physics @PhysicsNews]

Congratulations to the awardees of the 2024 Bell Burnell Graduate Scholarship Fund! 👏🎉 The Fund was set up to encourage greater diversity in physics by supporting students from groups currently under-represented who wish to study towards a doctorate in physics. (1/2) 🧵

Elmo is just checking in! How is everybody doing?

“If this inequity is not tackled, we will continue to let down a whole generation of girls and other under-represented groups." Deputy CE @RachelYoungman comments on today's A-level results. Read more about it here: https://t.co/RKmwY3RwiC

@MissNeutrino Congratulations! 🎉 I was a Summer Student last year and absolutely loved it!

My very first (sort of!) Collaboration Meeting! 🥹

I’m incredibly excited to be joining the @Microboone Collaboration as a DPhil student in October! ⚛️

[Lancaster Physics @LancUniPhysics]

This week, Lancaster University is hosting the @Microboone Collaboration Meeting! ⚛️🌍

Check out this drone shot of some of the Collaboration's members, including Lancaster staff and students (past and present), by second-year student @Orlando_P_B! 📸

It was so exciting to be interviewed by the lovely @JPonpolitics on @TimesRadio today about the #BintheBoffin campaign. Thank you so much for having me!

[Institute of Physics @PhysicsNews]

THANK YOU @dailystar for getting the issue of young people being put off physics on the newsstands.

We get the joke. We also get that they think physics is not for them and they don’t look like a ‘boffin’.

So #BintheBoffin and find better ways to show your love for science.

[Abbey Barnard 🌷🪩⚛️ @physicsabbey]

@dailystar @TheSun @DailyMirror Let’s #BinTheBoffin and show other young people who come from similar backgrounds to me that physics is a place for them. Pictured: me achieving my long-time aspiration of becoming a @CERN scientist and being accepted into Oxford!

[Institute of Physics @PhysicsNews]

Today we’re kicking off an exciting #IOPLimitLess mission, #BinTheBoffin. We’re challenging the media's use of the term boffin to combat the unhelpful, stereotypical depiction of physics & physicists. Find out how you can support our mission: https://t.co/swdaMkXxwN
