We're preparing the name badges for the 10th Norwich Biosciences Institutes #accessiblescience event on Tuesday, expecting 250 people in the @johninnescentre.bsky.social conference centre including students from local schools (and their teachers including @dewhurst-ben.bsky.social )

A name badge with three interesting facts reading "Ben Dewhurst, I have brewed zombie beer, I accidently invented prunes, I know what koala poo smells like."

Definitely a highlight of our year. Any biology teachers should get involved @chatbiology.bsky.social

Not a bad attempt at a kidney by AI. Glad I don't have one (or two), but I'm sure it'll get there eventually.

Side discussion in the @cerg.bsky.social symposium about misconceptions around pH (and how these can be perpetuated in the language we use) has given me an excuse to share the poster I produced with @andy.compoundchem.com when working @theeef.bsky.social d2tic4wvo1iusb.cloudfront.net/production/e...

This is a work of genius by the brilliant Paula at @norfolkrs.bsky.social (I mean it's a great newsletter, too - full of links to articles and other interesting stuff, but her intro and song challenge make it absolutely unmissable!)

There are two types of people in this world. Those that extrapolate from incomplete information...

Not sure I have a wide enough reach on here but if you know anyone who would like to teach biology for a year in our fantastic girls' school in Belfast, please share this with them. www.strathearn.org.uk/vacancies/

I've been using this gorgeous oak tree as a resource for an after-school club. We've done a moss safari (@mosssafari.bsky.social) cultured some yeast (@samtmugford.bsky.social) and other microbiology. Today we made sourdough rolls. The dough turned UI red, so certainly sour.

Sourdough starter culture with some universal indicator, turned red
