SUNAK: I looked at my cabinet and there wasn't a single person I was impressed by enough to make foreign sec. Of course I considered making do with someone but, well, you can put lipstick on a pig... CAMERON: Oh yes. You can. SUNAK: ...David? CAMERON: *misty eyed* You really can.

We have a PhD project on predicting the structure of atomically precise semiconductor nanoclusters available for a Sept. 2024 start through the competitive DTP route at UCL Chemistry (Project ID: 2228cd1374) Deadline 8th January 2024. See: ucl-epsrc-dtp.github.io/2024-25-projec…

Keir Starmer, from Londons Global University, in your own constituency, we are sending a message to you. We will not forget. #FREEPALESTINE #CEASEFIRENOW Keir Starmer

Another lecturer bingo check today, as I write a question containing "you may use the following trigonometric identity" 📐

The only thing I succeeded at, today, is bringing home-baked biscuits for my demonstrator training...which was scheduled online -_-

New PhD position for September 2024 - Machine learning✅ particles close to the speed of light✅ atomic properties of new materials✅ - more information and apply on findaphd.com/phds/project/m… Co-funded by UCL Chemistry and SciComp_STFC Ada Lovelace Centre.
