Dean of Strategic Projects - Faculty of Medical Sciences, Newcastle University

[Chris Baldwin @Wuchereria1]

Huge congratulations to Dr Dominic Kay who passed his PhD viva yesterday. Dominic was in 'my' first cohort of BMS@NUMed students in 2015 and he is now the first ever NUMed PhD graduate - what a fantastic journey and at least he does not wear flip flops in the lab any more.

@FulhamFC Hopefully we will have a manager by then

Accidentally got a large black Americano this morning - that should keep me going!

Big thanks to Hannah Owens, Sam Heppel and Jordan Heeley from our sustainability team here at Newcastle who joined me in a meeting with colleagues from Iskandar Investment Berhad (Mr Haris Hardi Zakaria, Mr Ir Kuna Segaran Vrejenan, Ms Azizah Khalid Merican and Mr Krishnamoorthy)

Very good film especially if you liked Backrooms

Thought I would go and see the famous vampire rabbit whilst I was wandering around by the cathedral

The Cathedral clock is still wrong - just noting that I am not in the pub at 12:15

First result on the wall chart

Lovely to see Jane Falconer today at the INE symposium. I have not seen her for at least 10 years and it was nice to catch up. She was an undergraduate with us, let’s say a few years ago, and is now at Sunderland where she is Associate Head of the School of Medicine

Today I am going to the Immunology North East annual symposium to immerse myself in all things Immunology - well I am still an immunologist(ish). Here we all are about 30 years ago when it was the North East Immunology Club - think it is only me and Simi left at Newcastle now.

@1StevieKilner I would suggest a squirm of squirrels

Another Monday off and first job of the day was to drive George to Gateshead (the Old Durham Road) to get some speakers (his birthday present) at his favourite computer shop.

Very quaffable although I am not sure if I should be quaffing Sake

[Chris Baldwin @Wuchereria1]

I have just discovered the M&S sells Sake. I will report back later

[Chris Baldwin @Wuchereria1]

@FluffWingBirdie Lavender? I would go for kimchi

@Danjsalt Burnham is just fluff - he will
Do and say anything to be the leader but has no vision other than his own glorification
