@CathyAbbottLab @Maclomaclee What a pairing! What excuse can I find to offer researcher development services to neuroscientists?

We're developing resources and events on participatory research which will appear through 2024, but you probably can't wait until then. If you're an FLF, come along on Monday, 2-4pm to learn about the spectrum of activities and opportunities to work in partnership.

@debsherlock @QUBelfast @FLFDevNetwork @QUBLibrary So, I’m nearly back! On the way to Belfast this morning as a tourist. Am I allowed to randomly wander into the library or is there an official tour? (although no promises I’ll convince my husband that a tour of a uni library is a must see…)
English
Safe to say I fell in love with @QUBelfast and the city on my visit. Plotting my return to see my fab @FLFDevNetwork colleagues & more
English
@sarashinton @EcatTrack @FLFDevNetwork @UKRI_News Was a great day, with a typically Shintonesque lively and meaningful presentation, which our audience really appreciated. Great to have you there.
English
Loved being back at @EcatTrack away day today, particularly the chance to be in the same place as @PGDeanSEScot I was talking about getting EDI into fellowships based on my @FLFDevNetwork and @UKRI_News panel experiences. Toolkit will follow later in the year...
English
@Dr_ClaireEllen I love @EcatTrack day - especially wonderful to be back this year. But gutted I missed @livvyswann so I'll just have to have a private viewing of that talk up at LF one day soon
English
and @sarashinton sharing key notes on EDI in fellowship applications 👌 All organised by the superwoman that is Jo Ness!
English
Thoroughly enjoyable @EcatTrack day in the beautiful Playfair Library @EdinburghUni! Two mantras resonated for me: "persistance not brilliance" from @Chris_D_Lucas (in the pic below!) and "I can't learn new things if I stay in my comfort zone" from the amazing @livvyswann
English
Just got a joyful email from @ResearchersAtEd telling me that @dfgillie is now one of my @UoE_IAD colleagues. Happy days 🥰 Especially for our research staff who she’ll be supporting through careers workshops and 1:1s alongside Eleanor #dreamteam

Had THE BEST DAY on the door at Tangled. Met so many smiling people enjoying the best of Gala. And it’s on again tomorrow. Run, don’t walk!
Dr Sara Shinton@sarashinton
Busy week of @FLFDevNetwork fun ahead before I take Friday afternoon off to volunteer at Tangled Yarn Festival on 2nd & 3rd June tangledgalashiels.com #knit #galashiels #yarn

Just in case you need it this morning. I’ve worked on researcher resilience for a long time. I think the most impactful strategy is do not isolate yourself. So if you’re feeling bad today, tell someone. And thanks to all who’ve picked me up when I’ve needed it.

@RachelYoungman @PhysicsNews Haha reminds me of my surgeon's response when I said I was SO EXCITED to get an MRI after learning about the technology as an analytical chemistry undergrad. She had never had that reaction before and suggested I rethink my expectations about how fun it might be 🤣

Val was a friend and an inspirational and highly valued member of the IST and she will be sorely missed. Our thoughts are with family, friends and colleagues. RIP Val @UoETechnicians
Kelly Vere MBE@kellyvere
A privilege & honour to join @ValGordon7’s family, friends & colleagues today to celebrate the life of such an inspirational woman. Val spearheaded the @TechsCommit @EdinburghUni, Scotland & beyond & was an amazing advocate for the UK’s technical profession. She’s much missed.
