Universities are a uniquely awful place to work as they automatically enroll you in an "alumni" list and beg for donations after they make you redundant. I have specifically asked University of Bath to remove me from such communications under GDPR. But they don't. Does the ICO - Information Commissioner's Office care?

It was an absolute blast having our close collaborators from Center for Advanced Systems Understanding at HZDR today - a fruitful day with lab practicals & 6 microscopes built to be deployed to multiple sites for #UTI diagnosis in the near future. Exciting times! Looking forward to another stimulating day tomorrow!
