Our new book "Wildlife Disease Ecology: Linking Theory to Data and Application" has just arrived #AndyFenton #DanTompkins - official publication in the UK is Nov 14th (US 6-8 weeks later) but you can pre-order your copy from here: cambridge.org/9781316501900

@DMTWestEnd I am trying to change the date for The Importance of Being Ernest and your website says it doesn’t recognise my login details, so I clicked on Forgot Password, which replies ‘we will send you a link to this email address’ but despite several attempts, it never does. Please help!

Tonight at 7pm, we will be dimming the lights across our theatres in memory of playwright Sir Tom Stoppard who passed away this week.

@MartinSLewis I recently cashed in my work pension so now get a monthly pension and my tax-free lump sum is spread across several bank accounts including a cash ISA and several savings accounts. Do I need to do a self assessment or is any interest payable taxed at source by the pension provids

Do you have any questions on private or workplace pension both saving in them, or taking money out. Including how the tax works (both ways round)? Or just general "should I's"? If so ask away, it's the subject of my pod this week, post the Qs here and producers will compile.

@NottinghamUni1 Ended up working in Africa trying to help farmers with crop pests over the last 30 years @bbc5live @BBCAfrica @BBCScienceNews

I tend to post this every year. My dream was to be a zoologist in Africa like #sirdavidattenborough, but I was no good at exams and I failed my A-levels, so I re-sit my A-levels a year later and scraped into my first choice Uni (@NottinghamUni1). I then went on to live the dream!

Failed your A levels? Back in the day, I failed all my A levels too. I had to re-sit the entire year before re-taking them the following year. Got grades just enough to go to my preferred university. A few years later I became a professor at @LancsUniLEC #followyourdreams

@NottinghamUni1 Did PhD at @sheffielduni & post docs at @@BangorUni_Intl and @Cambridge_Uni and @StirUni before getting my dream job as a lecturer and ultimately a senior job before moving to @LancsUniLEC as a Prof and now an Emeritus Prof. Low grades does not have to stop your dream, trust ❤️

Did you know that tennis balls used at Wimbledon are donated to animal rehabilitation centres around Britain for harvest mice.

Fully-funded PhD on moth trapping, automated ID, climate extremes & predator responses, with @DavidRoyBRC and me at @UniExeCEC in Cornwall. Deadline ** 29 July **. Please share! exeter.ac.uk/study/funding/…

Just 4% of Keir Starmer's Cabinet went to private school compared to 63% in Rishi Sunak's government. 93% were educated at a comprehensive school. A massive change from all previous UK governments

If you have just started as a Member of Parliament, or a part of a team assisisting a MP, then one of your key tasks is to assess scientific claims and I hope you will take this seriously. Here is a guide to this tricky business. Good luck. nature.com/articles/50333…

StopTheTories.Vote tactically if it helps vote out the worst government in history and remind them that if they inflict the likes of Johnson and Truss and Sunak on the country they deserve to pay a price. Time for a Superdefeat. They have earned it. stopthetories.vote

I’m looking for a postdoc (quantitative wildlife ecologist) to join our team to estimate white-tailed deer density and group size using camera traps (with implications for pathogen spread). hr.myu.umn.edu/jobs/ext/361827

If Labour win a whopping ("super") majority, they might do more of this sort of nonsense. Down with this sort of nonsense.
