I am an academic and computational physicist at the Physics Department at the University of Surrey.

I was watching Lord of the Rings last night and realized there are many parallels with academia!

A thread 🧵👇

[Al Haddrell @ukhadds]

I’m proud to have our latest research published on how long #SARSCoV2 remains infectious while airborne! We studied the fundamental processes that drive the loss of viral infectivity in the aerosol phase. #COVIDisAirborne

Here’s a thread going over some of the findings.

Not an aerosol scientist but aerosol scientists produced this for distribution of droplet sizes from someone speaking. Droplets from less than micrometre to much larger

This is dynamite from Kaveh Solhekol on Sky Sports News. Absolutely nails it. He has the Tories and BBC on toast. Well done!! ���� Take 2 mins and watch👇#garylineker #ImWithGary #MOTD #ToryFascists

Enthusiastically starting a new @EPSRC Impact Acceleration project with @ipwilliams working in collaboration with Pulpex to develop #sustainable #packaging https://t.co/YcGD2lVqI0 @FEPSInfo aligned with @SurreySustain

[Dr Rachel Clarke @doctor_oxford]

In 14 years as a doctor I’ve never known such horrific conditions. Patients dying on trolleys with zero dignity. Or screaming & moaning in corridors. Dickensian overcrowding, total implosion. Despair. Weeping staff. Abject misery.

Do you care at all @Jeremy_Hunt? @SteveBarclay?

@nadhimzahawi Hi from traffic jam in part caused by whole train line shut by the train company/government. Strikes can't do much here!

Our paper modelling how badly cloth masks filter, w @BristolUniPhys, has made the cover of @AIP_Publishing Physics of Fluids! More proof that physics is at most 50% carefully analysed quantitative data, other half is pretty pictures ....
