Gary here, My sweet Heather died in the early hours of this morning. The Whisky is kicking in big time! This THING, this INFECTION, they don't know what it was? KILLED my lovely Heather. She couldn't move or speak to me, we just made eye contact. I want to die.

Loved this talk tonight which has used Zooniverse to facilitate crowdsourced transcription. SO many ideas floating round in my head right now for potential future @UoYBorthwick work...

And now we're underway - Grace Campagna is taking the venerable research output known to us @CHPPC_IHR as 'The Great Wall of Cheapside' - a wall of card index files from the 'Get to Know Medieval Londoners' which transcribed and arranged a massive range of medieval documents.

Fascinating to hear @KMGlassman 's research to unravel Hooker's Flora Boreali-Americana and to follow the threads which lead to the undervalued contributions of women botanists #NatSCA2023
