Chemist trying to fix the world one piece of recyclable plastic at a time... she/her

1/ I’m willing to bet that not many people have sifted carefully through the soil at the bottom of the compost bin. But if you do, you might be in for a nasty surprise....

Playground Politics is back and this kid had the most BRUTAL put down ever! 😳

[Daniel Gould, MD, PhD @DJGould94]

Chemists who publish negative findings should call those papers publianions instead of publications

[Green Materials Lab @GreenMatLab]

Just out now in @NatureCatalysis! In this collaborative study, we have developed an evolved thermostable PETase that depolymerizes semicrystalline PET. Congrats to @siooobhan and all others involved! @SMI_Hub

@EasyPaws hiya, I placed an order on the 22/07/22 and I haven’t heard anything about this since - please can you provide an update?

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Funny how all these Tory MPs who (falsely) claim that rail workers are well paid, don't ever mention that the Network Rail chief executive earns £590,000 per year.

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

Perhaps we could pay rail workers a decent wage if billions hadn’t been shovelled into a bloated privatised railway during the pandemic.

Has the case for rail re-nationalisation ever been clearer?

@RORgroup @MarjolaineThms @Pike_Group @njwarren1 Congratulations Marjo!!

[Torik Holmes @TorikHolmes]

Great to talk about the 'One Bin to Rule Them All' project today with @siooobhan at @LARACspeaks. Learnt about the havoc broken glass causes for bin lorries and the recyclability of different coloured bins, thanks to @CONTENURes.

[Francesca Lorandi @FrancescaLoran2]

The past week I was involved in a lab accident. I'm fine, just wearing a neck brace for a while and I’ll have a new tooth. I'm very grateful for all messages and help.
But we need to talk and do more about safety in chemistry labs. 1/n

[Green Materials Lab @GreenMatLab]

Our own Zoe, @TomBennett_23 and Mike are working on a spin out technology, ReCon², that uses fluorescent tracking molecules for identifying, quantifying and validating recycled content in plastics. @SMI_Hub How cool is this? Check it out: https://t.co/lJ4gHidsoY

An important first step in science communication is to know and respect your audience. Remember that you are communicating with people who are intelligent and curious, they just have a different set of expertise than you do.

Once you realise Number 10 were all drunk all of the time, 2020 starts to make more sense

[Ms Good Good @triniliciousd]

Has Covid-19 forced you to wear a mask and glasses at the same time? You may be entitled to condensation.

[Kate @KateOfHysteria]

Not getting Covid during the 10 days prior to Christmas is literally the worst adrenalin sport ever.

[Dr Philip Lee @drphiliplee1]

Man we had a very different Christmas last year didn't we @ShaunBaileyUK

Merry Christmas to you and your staff.

the fact that 2021 is already over is proof that time also flies when you are NOT having fun

[Louis Staples @LouisStaples]

the UK peaked at Orange Wednesdays and it hasn't been the same since

[AK @Kearnsy1906]

Every single headteacher in this city should stop every lesson in school today and make every kid sit and read that news until it sinks in. Make them look at the kids next to them and picture them not being here. The value of life amongst kids today it’s absolute heartbreaking.

[Siobhan Kilbride @siooobhan]

Just mentally corrected someone saying congratulations with condragulations
