I'm no longer using this site. All major socials are currently plagued by censorship of trans people, disturbing content, and user issues but this one has become unuseable for me. You can still find me on, and will update:

On a Swiss glacier so just a lazy tweet bollocking for @benpartridge. You can get a membership to the British library
@beansaladpod – at Pontresina, Switzerland
Would love for you to take a look at our new paper! It was really interesting to see how the glacier algae bloom scaled with the highest melt year on record in the Alps

New @MicroLabBristo1 paper out today revealing glacier algal bloom ecology during record melt years in the alps! Great work by the @LeverhulmeTrust iDAPT team and others. @Bristol_Glac @cabotinstitute @GeogBristol frontiersin.org/journals/mic…
First Microlab meeting of 2024, say hi to this year's team!
We have familiar faces (post doc @JazzedUpScience, PhD students @em_lm_b, Maddy and Paulina) plus new members research technician Sonia Giulietti and PhD student Holly Liken. And of course Chris lurking behind the camera
Emily the polar scientist is off to #Antarctica 😱 wish her bon voyage and that no pesky pandemics turn up while she's away like they did for *cough* some scientists... – at Bristol, England
In 10 days I’ll be off to Signy Island, Antarctica with @BAS_News to assess the snow and glacier algal blooms there.
I’ll be sharing more of the journey and what I get up to on our team page (@MicroLabBristo1) and my insta (em_lm98) 🐧❄️

Thank you @bps_algae for inviting me for a keynote talk! Big honour and really excited to share this new research from one of the biggest glacier melt events of my lifetime
#polarscience #alpinescience #climatescience #ClimateCrisis – at Reading, England
Second keynote at @bps_algae winter meeting - @JazzedUpScience talked about the scale, ecology and geochemistry of the #Morteratsch #glacier #algae bloom in the record melt year of 2022

Our second @bps_algae talk is also from Chris - the new and exciting @UKRI_News #CASPICE project - bringing together a global network of #cryosphere #algae scientists to collaborate on sampling and analysis methodology and strategy. And we're still reaching out for participants! – at Reading, England

Honoured to have 2 keynotes from our group at @bps_algae's winter meeting this year! Chris is starting us off with AI for Algal Monitoring, and Holly Liken our new PhD student working on this will be around to chat if you have any questions or suggestions. – at Reading, England

Great to see @cu_earth alumnus @JazzedUpScience on the BBC for such a unique and fascinating documentary!

Such an amazing opportunity to meet Simon Armitage during our fieldwork in Ny Alesund this year! 🌍 @JazzedUpScience, @em_lm_b, and Maddy had a great chat with him about our work. We'll also be on the BBC Radio 4 show soon, so give it a listen 📻#BBCRadio4 #PolarResearch
Anyone look familiar? 🤔 Catch me on PBS talking about #SnowballEarth and why #cryoconite might be key

Hundreds of millions of years ago, Earth was encased in ice. How did life survive?

#Cardiff - are you ready to hear the phenomenal line up of #neurodivergent talent we have for #ADHD #SouthWales' first fundraiser? At @TheMoonCardiff (please RT!)
First up is Finn Pelling of @_smallmiracles and Finn and the Jacques fame
Soulful, defiant, folk glam (1/3) – at Cardiff, Wales
@DansPeople - one of Cardiff's best loved bands that you'd kill to see at a festival, house gig, stadium, they're one of the most versatile bands around.

#cardiff / #southwales friends:
When I'm not sciencing I'm running #ADHD South Wales. Up to 9 year waits, for a prescription and nothing else. We want to step up our group to be able to provide the support and advocacy that's so lacking. Please come to our first fundraiser – at Cardiff, Wales
