Sciences at Newcastle
@SciencesNCL
Our classrooms are fields, beaches, farms, boats and labs. We are the School of Natural and Environmental Sciences, Newcastle University.
🧬 After extracting DNA from water samples, Mia checked quality via gel electrophoresis—success! The 16S region was intact. Now she is running Nanopore sequencing to ID bacteria & explore microbial diversity. Results coming soon… stay tuned! #EnvironmentalMicrobiology #WeAreNCL
As we put the finishing touches to the programme, do make sure to register as places are limited @SciencesNCL @BritishEcolSoc
EcoNet2025: VII Symposium on Ecological Networks 3-5 September 2025 REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN: ncl.ac.uk/.../events/eve… PLACES ARE LIMITED TO 150 SO BOOK EARLY TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT Call for talks and posters closes 20th June.
🧪 Lab life week 3! With my amazing PhD mentor Lee, we filtered, plated, and streaked bacteria to hunt for E. coli, Salmonella & Pseudomonas. DNA’s extracted & ready for sequencing next week—our ecosystem’s molecular profile is coming together! 🌱#womeninSTEM @RoyalMicroSoc
Catherine represents the future of sustainable agriculture and food production @Sage_NCL @SciencesNCL @GRASSCEILING_EU

Today is my final working day at Newcastle University @SciencesNCL after 14 years. From August I will be moving to a new role at @FeraScience !
Congratulations to all of our @SciencesNCL students graduating today! 🎓🥳 📷 Don't forget to share your posts using #NCLGrad #WeAreNCL
For the rest of today, we're celebrating new graduates from our School of Natural & Environmental Sciences (@SciencesNCL) - congrats! 🎓 Today is just the start of your journey. Discover how we can help you in your next steps 👉 bit.ly/40PWL3i #NCLgrad #WeAreNCL
Excellent curiosity event hosted by @CarbonCallFarm @LizGenever with Paul Allison @SciencesNCL PhD student
We’re thrilled that Henry Dimbleby, co-author of the National Food Strategy and food systems changemaker, received an honorary doctorate today! 👏🎓Henry will also be meeting staff & students working across disciplines in agriculture, food and land management #WeAreNCL #NCLGrad
🎓 Congratulations Class of 2025! 🎓 Your hard work and resilience have paid off. We're incredibly proud of you and excited for your future! You'll always be part of the @UniofNewcastle family. Enjoy your day and we wish you the very best! #WeAreNCL #NCLGrad
🐝There's a real buzz about chronic bee paralysis over on @BBCRadio4 as @GilesBudge shares his expert comments on the subject over on Farming Today, have a listen from 09:15.🐝👇 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
I collected water samples from the Lort Dene, a hidden river from Leazes Park to the River Tyne. I'm studying its bacterial diversity, which has never been done before. I also sampled the Victorian Tunnels' iron-rich water. Stay tuned for interesting results! #WeAreNCL #placement
I recently presented a poster at SNES fest on my current research into the ecosystem services of kelp. I had a great day watching everyones talks and answering questions about my research 🌊🌊🌊@SciencesNCL
Hello! I’m Mia, a 2nd-year Molecular Cell Biology student at @UniOfYork. Over the next 6 weeks, I'll be at Newcastle University, researching bacterial diversity with Dr. Matt Bawn using Nanopore Sequencing. Excited to explore local ecosystems and develop my lab skills! 🧪🥼
