The last time I had lunch with Prof Susan Scott was in 2016 after a Director's Colloquium at PhysicsANU ! Now she is a Fellow of the International Soc of GR & Gravitation, nice 🕳️ Great to catch up and looking forward to Australian Institute of Physics Congress later this year.

I feel very grateful to have been appointed a Professor @DSPI University of Oxford and want to express my appreciation for all those ppl who have supported me. But I would also like to reflect on further education in the UK bc I wouldn't have achieved this w/out one of those colleges

Great news! The #ESS Target Wheel is spinning in the on-site test stand! 🙌 The 💙 of ESS is a fine piece of engineering delivered from 🇪🇸 In-Kind partner ESS Bilbao oficial. It contains almost 7,000 tungsten bricks, and weights about 5 tonnes.

A good catch up, featuring me (having come straight from the lab) trying to pick the superglue off my hands without being noticed ... #Victoria #TheEducationState #WestVicBestVic
