£770m. That’s the economic benefit international students contributed to the city of Sheffield in the 2021-2 academic year.
We’re calling on the government to recognise the economic, social and cultural value of international students and remove them from net migration figures.

📣Have you heard about BuildZero?🎉 This new £6m project led by @sheffielduni will explore the extent to which the circular economy could meet the UK’s building needs using zero new material extractions, zero emissions and zero waste.

I had a great time last week visiting @ICT_Bradford! Thank you to @SEK2016T and @DrSneha_S for inviting me and to everyone for all the interesting discussions, especially the ECRs at the round table!
What a remarkable way to wrap up the @ICT_Bradford Spring Seminar series with Dr. @Leni_Green’s enlightening insights into targeting dormant cancer cells! A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for this exciting journey! #ICTSeminar #CancerResearch @ULifesci @UoBPaMS

If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via @thediscourse study.
This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice.

Very pleased to be part of this awesome collaboration!!! We'll be developing new approaches for material upcycling to maximise resource efficiency and optimise material use in the UK built environment! @SmashUoS @CBESheffield
BuildZero, the £6m project funded by @EPSRC, will develop a detailed vision of more sustainable building practices, through a five year project led by @sheffielduni in partnership with @UniofBath, @ManchesterUniv, @cardiffuni, @Cambridge_Uni and industrial collaborators.🎉

Remember, Paris wasn’t “always this way.”
It wasn’t even this way in late 2019 when I was last there.
Just a few years ago, #Paris was choking in car traffic much more.
This is new. This is leadership.
Cities are a result of choices.

I can strongly recommend this as a great opportunity for anyone interested in geopolymers, cements, and/or nuclear waste! - this builds from a couple of projects I was involved with in the past, and Brant and the Sheffield/Hokkaido team are continuing to do very cool things.
