Friends in the North (and others willing to travel) 👇 come and talk student engagement.

Had a wonderful time giving the annual Royal Society of Chemistry northern branch A-level Christmas lecture. - what is AI and machine learning - how is it used in chemistry - how students can use it ethically >200 keen students from across Sheffield loads of engagement and great questions.

Amazed at how popular the AI Guidance that David Smith and I wrote, which is hosted on the The National Teaching Repository. Nearly 1800 views and over 370 downloads since mid September…Wow! doi.org/10.25416/NTR.2…

Latest preprint from our lab, assessing ferroptosis inducers Erastin, RSL3 and FIN56, and also Nrf2 inhibitors, as potential radio-sensitisers in 3D cell cultures of breast cancer cell lines. Alaa’s 1st output from her PhD.

Dementia: Hope for the Future Episode 1 Progress now available through BBC Radio Wales BBC Sounds bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00… Join us next week for Episode 2: Better Together. Huge thanks to all contributors who bravely shared their stories to help others - you're all incredible.
