What!? I find the limitations sections so important! Limitations might be obvious to you, but not everyone are specialists. I also use it to outline how to improve my study, in hope that others with more time & money will get to it. We need *meaningful* limitations sections.

Looks like the UK has been awarded more ERC consolidator grants than any other EU country (again). This is a huge achievement, a very large amount of funding for UK-based research and a clear example of how the UK benefits from being in the EU. #StopBrexitSaveBritain

This weekend @uclbc will be rowing for 48 hours straight in Covent Garden. I’ve organised this #Rowathon to fundraise for the club & @MindCharity as no one should have to face a mental health problem alone. See link for more info and to donate. Pls share! justgiving.com/fundraising/uc…
