Sleeping on the streets is NOT a lifestyle choice. We don’t have nearly enough affordable homes, rents are soaring and this is leaving people destitute and forced to sleep rough. This is a consequence of poverty. And poverty in this country has been exacerbated by policy choices
The British people are compassionate. We will always support those who are genuinely homeless. But we cannot allow our streets to be taken over by rows of tents occupied by people, many of them from abroad, living on the streets as a lifestyle choice. 1/4
Absolutely over the moon to have passed my PhD viva last week! Thank you to my examiners for a great discussion @RyanLab_MBU and Jim Stewart and my fab supervisors @sarahjpickett, Ollie and Matt for their support over the last 4 years. Excited to see what the next chapter brings!
Looking for a funded PhD position? Come and work with @DrPerscitus @paoloactis and myself. Use Nanobiopsy an incredible cool technology to study the interaction between mitochondria and nuclei. Deadline 13th Dec. @nuact_NCL @FMSgradschool Apply here: tinyurl.com/2c73atdc

If everyone who has been grateful for the NHS over the past 75 years followed and retweeted we’d reach a million by midnight. Please take just two seconds to show you care.
We have an open position for a Research Assistant/Associate to join our team investigating why and how we age, focusing on the role of mitochondria. Please RT. #aging #mitochondria #Drosophila #researchjobs shorturl.at/gSZ28
The UK's overly centralised governance has led to unequal allocation of resources and London-centric decision-making. Explore why we need a new approach to regional policy 📈👇 #LevellingUp #FromNewcastle from.ncl.ac.uk/reinforcing-le…
⚠️😡Make no mistake, we are angry. This Government has today launched an attack on nature. We don’t use the words that follow lightly. We are entering uncharted territory. Please read this thread. 1/13
Less than a week to apply for our open position! #mitochondria #aging #ROS #Drosophila
We have a new job position as a research assistant or associate: jobs.ac.uk/job/CTF957/res…. Please apply if you are interested in #mitochondria, #aging and #ROS. DMs for further questions are welcome, and retweets are much appreciated.
Congratulations to everyone shortlisted for the @timeshighered & @TechsCommit Outstanding Technician of the Year award 2022! 👏 #THEAwards
NERC just sent an email out recognising that the cost of living increase means its PhD stipend isn't sufficient to live on. Their solution isn't to increase it, it's to suggest students start selling Avon and sign up to clinical trials... @ARIES_DTP @UKRI_News @NERCscience
