Shameful. ⁦@BBCSingers⁩ is one of the leading advocates of choral music in the world and their budget probably equals one sports presenter’s salary. The BBC corporate spin on it is beyond belief. theguardian.com/music/2023/m…

Fantastic event to celebrate the opening of the Deborah Smith Building with speeches from Debbie, Biology HoD James Moir and @UniOfYork VC Charlie Jeffery. Great to be joined by staff and students and to hear about Debbie's amazing accomplishments ⭐
Lovely to have the boss back for formal opening of Deborah Smith Building ⁦@UniOfYork⁩ ⁦@BiologyatYork⁩ reflecting on what a fantastic interdisciplinary, diverse community we have, enormously collegiate for students and staff alike, driving the teaching/research link.
