Spotted in Waitrose today! ❤️ #LookedAfter

🎉 @otc_london has successfully graduated from @LondonYouth’s Bronze Quality Mark Programme!!! Unbelievable. 🎉 Bronze Accredited 🥳🥳 More to follow tomorrow!!!

They are not universally from elite families — take Daniel Tsui, the child of illiterate farmers from Henan China. He somehow made it to Augustana College in Illinois, the University of Chicago, and Bell Labs, where he made Nobel-worthy discoveries in quantum physics. 9/N

The 2024 #NobelPrize laureates in chemistry Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have successfully utilised artificial intelligence to predict the structure of almost all known proteins. In 2020, Hassabis and Jumper presented an AI model called AlphaFold2. With its help, they have been able to predict the structure of virtually all the 200 million proteins that researchers have identified. Since their breakthrough, AlphaFold2 has been used by more than two million people from 190 countries. Among a myriad of scientific applications, researchers can now better understand antibiotic resistance and create images of enzymes that can decompose plastic.

Excited for the Nobel prize in physics to be announced tomorrow!!!

Aside from writing and submitting publications, this was the final presentation of the AXA Fellowship at Imperial - and my last as an academic. #wasanemotionalone

Recently presented suspect-screening results from high-res MS analysis of respirable dust at #Dioxin2024 Singapore. Multi-ionisation mode + library comparison confirmed carcinogen, endocrine disruptor, and respiratory irritant presence - in the absence of analytical standards.

Thrilled to be attending the 28th International Symposium on Separation Sciences (ISSS 2024) in Messina, Italy this week. I'll also be speaking on Wednesday about target and non-target two-dimensional GC TOF MS analysis of occupational airborne dusts in recycling centres.

Keep on science-ing!! instagram.com/reel/C-BhOM8p3…

'with projected global temp increases of 2.5 to 2.9°C by the end of the century' would integrating climate considerations into violence prevention strategies and mental health interventions be worthwhile? nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

'Our results support the hypothesis that higher temperatures may lead to more violence, including suicides and homicides....' academic.oup.com/aje/article/18…

the relationship between sustained above norm high temps and violence requires studying... basu et al. 2017....temperature may also affect mental state and aggressiveness, resulting in a higher likelihood of physical altercation and injury

Segmentation model fine tuning is going ok!!

Important article for all ECRs to consider! science.org/content/articl…

Finally hit the halfway mark in analysing our PM4 samples collected from material recycling facilities with GCxGC 🤌🏾🔥!!

Over the past year, she's crafted a fantastic EPQ project delving into the teratogenicity of alcohol, tobacco, and thalidomide. Buzzing!

Absolutely thrilled that one of the students I mentor for this year's EPQ programme at @otc_london has been accepted into their first-choice university!

Anyone have any good recommendations for graphical software/packages to visualise the architecture of a 1D CNN with residual connections? Current graphical attempt was created using graphviz - not very approachable...

The Plastic Spectral Library has introduced forgot password and typical username/password resetting functionality.

Airborne dust sampling at site one complete. Today, we have installed three partisols - sampling PM4, at site two. Final two months of the RAMS study.
