Great to host a group of @BeaCitySixth students last week on campus. A huge thanks to our brilliant Engineering academics!
Aspiring engineers visited @uniofleicester Engineering faculty. They've had an address from the Head of School, experienced a lecture, and will be heading off around campus for a number of other insights! #engineering #aspire #careers #planforsuccess #futures #unilife #study

There are 4 different PhDs scholarships to join the @NeurogeneticsL1 with me as the 1st or 2nd supervisor. All the projects will use a combination of computational biology and molecular biology (e.g. scRNA-seq)

It was great to have @Alimaggs from @ChaosCreatedApp on campus today, delivering a Video Game Design workshop to our Year 12 Access Leicester: STEM students 🎮 I’d been looking forward to this one since we first planned it, thank you Ali! 🤩 #thinklikeaprogrammer #stemoutreach
A really interesting trip to Nottingham today, to visit @JusticeMuseum with our #pathwaystolaw Year 12s! @nicolalumb forced me into the stocks, but thankfully not the gallows 🥴 #worktrip
Last week’s view vs. this week’s view. Week one of physics work experience complete ✅ Well done team! @RevJB @SuzieImberSpace Huge thanks to all of our amazing colleagues who supported with activities 🪐 #workexperience #physics #backtothegrind

It turns out that FANCM promotes class I crossovers and suppresses class II crossovers in wheat. See our latest work nature.com/articles/s41467-0… @uniofleicester @hendersi @CristobalUauy
Our Access Leicester: STEM Year 12 students have been on campus today to hear about studying Geology at university and learn about @volcanicyannick ‘s PhD research. Thanks, Yannick! @GeologyLeics #Geology #outreach

Another example that illustrates how misguided this observation is - 7 out of 10 recipients of the @virgingalactic scholarship I co-founded with @SuzieImberSpace at @PhysicsUoL were women, chosen through an anonymous selection process. #WomenInSTEM
“Physics isn’t something that girls tend to fancy. They don’t want to do it. They don’t like it… There’s a lot of hard maths in there that they don’t want to do.” 🤦🏻♀️ @Miss_Snuffy, UK Government Social Mobility Commission Chair #WomenInSTEM

A group of our Year 12 Access Leicester: STEM progression programme students were on campus today, to gain an insight into studying chemistry at @uniofleicester 🧪 They had a jam packed day of labs led by @Leicesterchem - thanks to all involved with the day! #outreach #chemistry
Some of our fantastic PhD students are delivering Medical Science talks for our Access Leicester: STEM & Medicine Year 12 students this evening. We’re kicking off with @Elpida_Vnz talking about her experiences and her research on diabetes👩🏻🔬 #stem #outreach
Next up, Gez told our students about her path to get on a PhD programme and the barriers she overcame to get here. She also explained her research on cardiomyopathy and even brought along some mass spec parts to show off! 🤩 #stemoutreach #accessleicesterstem
