To achieve work life balance have bought myself a massive yummy sandwich and come to the park to eat it with a nice view

In the past 24h have written more than 5,000 words for 4 diff outlets (some of those on a train) and now my brain is broken. It is 10.30pm and far too late to be finishing work for the day!

@SW_Help Ok thanks, that's useful.
Re. the map you posted says no bulky luggage, bikes or prams on rr busses so wanted to check

@AMatthewsKing Hi, these services are direct but they are running diverted via Virginia Water so are going to take longer to complete the journey. Do you mean you were not able to board a train because it was too busy and you had luggage? ^RC

This morning I visited the wonderful @royalsociety where the Duchess of Edinburgh met Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol @President_KR and @michelledonelan for a round table discussion on how to strengthen the global role of science #StateVisit 🇰🇷

Fascinating episode, featuring forensic anthropologist (and FRS) Prof Sue Black on being an expert witness, and @royalsociety CEO Dame Julie Maxton on the primers breaking down the latest scientific evidence to help judges in the court room. Must listen!

On Law in Action, @BBCRadio4 at 4pm today and then on @BBCSounds here: bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00… — can you spot a deepfake voice? And what happens when scientists start talking to lawyers?

Two fascinating days exploring the role of scientific knowledge in the justice system (& differences between UK and US systems) with judges and researchers from @royalsociety & @theNASciences

Speaking at @royalsociety, former universities and science minister David Willetts (@resfoundation) issues a challenge the science community to ensure it achieves maximum possible return for British science from #horizoneurope association
English
Big day in science land.
After many (many.) calls for #HorizonEurope association, well done the negotiators who got this over the line.
Now the research community can start rebuilding those lost and shelved collaborations, and tackling global issues rather than red tape.
The Royal Society@royalsociety
Our president, Sir Adrian Smith, has welcomed the news of UK's association to the Horizon Europe research programme "Our association...is fantastic news, not just for the UK but for scientists across the EU and for all the people of Europe." Full statement bit.ly/3ErrYhZ

Amazing to see this project launch after so much work by @aud2526 , @ScottishSensory and @royalsociety colleagues. Learning how scientific concepts are broken down into #bsl gestures has been fascinating, and it's been captured brilliantly by @Vic_Gill in this piece
The Royal Society@royalsociety
We are proud to have teamed up with @ScottishSensory to 'rewild' British Sign Language with 200 new signs for common environmental terms, to make #climate and #biodiversity science more accessible. Watch more on @BBCNews: bbc.co.uk/news/av/scienc…
