BSC Midlands

A great honour to be in such illustrious company talking #research! @steve_tombs @Vicky_Canning @DrSJHardy Jose Pina-sanchez Anna Carline and me, with a beautifully written intro from @JoPhoenix1 and @KeirIrwinRogers Very chuffed to be included. howardleague.org/wp-content/upl…

The new year means I'll begin teaching quantitative research methods again soon. If you're a lecturer or student preparing for the term ahead, you might find this guidance on statistical tests and example SPSS data set useful (see ch. 15) routledgetextbooks.com/textbooks/9781… @Routledge_Socio

@WarrCriminology @EmeraldSoc Congratulations! I'm sure there are many across the East Midlands and beyond who are looking forward to reading this

So ... just signed contract with @EmeraldSoc. My book Forensic Psychologists: Prisons, Power, and Vulnerability is inbound!! #criminology #ForensicPsychology #prison

Universities still have a long way to go to fully understand and adequately support student mental health, but so many staff members are working increasingly hard to provide amazing pastoral care for students. It takes a toll on them too. theguardian.com/society/2019/s…

Further evidence of what happens with the derogation of evidence and expertise within the @MoJGovUK - they seek to impose a discredited technology (outsourced to whom?) in #law and #CriminalJustice policy that has no probity but to which people will be subject. #Criminology

Welcome @DrOliviaSmith we @LboroSPS are very much looking forward to having you in the team!

"To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any #ECR!" Its #ECRFriday folks. Let celebrate our junior colleagues in #HigherEducation and share their work #STEM #SocialScience #Sociology #Criminology #Law #ECRchat

The rules are simple #AcademicTwitter: 1. Give the persons name 2. If they are on Twitter then also include their details. 3. Detail title or theme of article/book/presentation 4. Provide a link 5. State the discipline with a # (i.e. #Sociology) 6. Use the # #ECRFriday #ECRchat

This #ECRFriday I am celebrating the work of @caitlingormley and her work on The #Prison Experiences of People With Learning Disabilities (see: howardleague.org/wp-content/upl…). This is massively important work. #Criminology #ECRChat #AcademicTwitter

The #sensorial nature of prison is both profound, unnerving. Here is our very own @KateHerrity's guest blog for @Compen2020 on the #SoundScape of the #prison at night ... Please share. #SoundInPrison #SensoryPenalities #SensoryCriminology #Criminology compen.crim.cam.ac.uk/Blog/blog-page…

Seems timely to promote this article wherein I argue that #Risk/#Rehabilitation are two sides of the same disciplinary coin; and that both create systems of judgement which dictate #NarrativeLabour by indeterminately sentenced #prisoners #Criminology journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

@LessCrime Always read the reviews right away, then allow yourself 24-48 hours of being furious with the ignorant pustules who are too stupid to recognise your brilliance. Bathe in indignation for a few days... and then go back to see which comments might actually be helpful.
