I grew up working class. I’ve been fighting all my life. As Prime Minister, I’ll fight for you.

#OTD William Thomson, better known as Lord Kelvin was born! This portrait can be seen in our permanent display at the #Hunterian Museum University of Glasgow, memorialising the life and legacy of the prominent physicist. 🖼️H von Herkomer, 'Lord Kelvin', 1891. Oil on canvas.

On this day, 200 years ago, William Thomson, best known as Lord Kelvin, was born. One of the most prominent figures in UofG's history, his influence is still felt through the inventions, innovation, and inspiration that shaped the world in which we live. #Kelvin200 UofG SciEng

Many congratulations to Dr Chris Fitch, announced as the latest winner of the Institute of Physics Quantum Electronics and Photonics Doctoral Research Prize. A fantastic achievement for Chris, who started his PhD University of Surrey after his retirement. iop.org/physics-commun…
