All the scientific breakthroughs honoured here are incredible, and have potential to transform many lives. While the gene therapy highlighted won't work for all causes of #sightloss, it is a huge step forward and powerful proof of principle of what can be done with relatively minimal investment

Through a combination of film analysis, interviews, and industry case studies, she highlights the creative and social impact of Nollywood’s women filmmakers. This work contributes to broader discourses on African cinema, feminist film theory, and representation in global media.

One of adulthood’s most painful things is realizing someone you think of as a friend doesn’t consider you a friend. There is no malice or acrimony or anything bad about it. It’s just a difference of some apt “German” word I don’t know.

Consequences of our 'woke' government in Scotland .. "Scotland’s relative success – its child poverty rates are projected to be 10 percentage points lower than England’s by 2029 – is attributed by JRF to Holyrood’s more generous child benefits and its plans to scrap the two-child benefit limit."
