Congratulations to the 2025 Physiology Nobel Laureates! 👏

Delighted to be in Belfast at Stormont today, and looking forward to speaking later about the role of physiology in tackling the health challenges from climate change.

Great to be in Belfast today to speak at Stormont about climate change & health on behalf of The Physiological Society. Simple message: Climate change harms people through their bodies. Heat, air pollution & poor nutrition don’t act separately, they stack up in the heart, lungs & brain. And

“I want everyone in the country to think of themselves as a scientist. Science can’t be seen as just something done by other people ‘over there’”. Great reflections from Ottoline Leyser tonight from her time as UKRI CEO on engaging the public with science and developing the R&D

Delighted to be joining the Board of Trustees at UK Health Alliance on Climate Change. I’m looking forward to contributing to a charity with a vital mission at a critical time.

I'm looking forward to attending World Health Summit in Berlin next week. If you are attending and would like a coffee to talk about The Physiological Society's work across areas such as climate & health or precision medicine, please send me a message! #WHS2025

🚨The Physiological Society education & teaching meetings are always unmissable for physiology educators.... mark your diaries for the 2026 meeting now!

Day 1 at the World Health Summit in Berlin! I’m here talking to partners and policymakers across global health about the role physiologists can play in shaping health responses that start with the science of how the body works. #WHS2025

One of the most interesting sessions at #WHS2025 today focused on global challenges to ensuring access to reliable, quality health information. The key question was how to embed quality indicators into policy, as well as considering the role of scientific journals. Looking

Physiology took centre stage at the World Health Summit today with a session highlighting the vital role physiological evidence and insight has in keeping people safe during extreme heat - from understanding how the body responds under stress to shaping practical measures that

Autumn in Berlin! One of the best things about the World Health Summit being in Berlin is that you can start the day in parks like this. #WHS2025

Physiology is at the heart of many things, including the heart! As the science of life, it helps us understand and contextualise what is happening around and within us. Latest output: physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/EP…

Can highly recommend the new ZooTown at London Zoo. Isla enjoyed dressing up as a vet, zookeeper, builder and much more. (Although the animals were a bit still 👀)

🥳Great evening in Parliament celebrating the launch of the South East Asia Health Policy Network. We heard powerful stories from communities affected by the health impacts of climate change, alongside inspiring examples of resilience & determination. Thanks to Tony Vaughan KC MP

London looking particularly pretty in the autumn sunshine today. But with the clocks going back this weekend, this will be the last time finishing work in daylight until spring 😬.
