Today was a fantastic opportunity to hear from former @UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon. His talk was so full of passion, but also conveyed a vital message that we all need to act as Global Citizens to help achieve a sustainable future for all.

It has been fantastic to work with Naz through the @BritSciAssoc Community Buddy Programme. I can highly recommend it to any researchers looking to support their local community.

@SeanPJackson @Grady_Booch …which is all part of learning to program. So I would argue that these AI based tools could actually do a lot of harm for people learning to program.

@PJGeller Hi Philip, if you're on the northbound you should be on the move again shortly. You'll be directed off the exit slip road and then allowed to join back on the entry slip.
