Had great fun at the standcomedyclub.bsky.social as part of #TheProvocateurs! They asked me to come back next year! Hopefully I'll stop sweating at some point...

Tried out some material on my wife tonight and her response was "ha ha". She didn't laugh. She just said "ha ha". Philistine.

Fielding questions from some very engaged young folk as part of Science Insights today. Topics of particular interest were: How is AI changing research? How far will genetic engineering of humans go? Where do you get your fish t-shirts? medicine-vet-medicine.ed.ac.uk/engage-with-...

Another 2 Nuffield Research Placement students are coming to the end of their projects in our facility. They've been helping to study which forms of environmental enrichment impact egg production. Good luck with the write up, Dexter and Abigail!

There's a good chance I may have signed myself up to do a show at the Edinburgh Fringe. Please send help! Also, send all your best fish, science and fish-science puns. www.thestand.co.uk/fringe/2557/... www.thestand.co.uk/fringe/2564/...

I know things are bad when I see the same political posts appearing in my polite, professional science account that I do on my personal account... US based colleagues, you are in our thoughts.

Are you involved in zebrafish research in the UK? It has been essentially impossible to import zebrafish into the UK since September 2024 due to newly implemented regulations. We'd like to change that. Can you lend your support? Template letter here: limewire.com/d/3c0655be-9...

I know I've missed Halloween but I refuse to sit on this for 11 months:
I wanted to call it Trick or Treat
But the gits in the ethics committee demanded I call it randomised clinical trial controlled with placebo.

Evidently the nibbles were good, which is really all you can ask for.
