Nerdy mum who’d rather read than run. Humanist speaker. Death cleric level 7 (thanks for asking).
I’m back at Winchester Science Centre today for their amazing Home Education Day! 🎉
I’ll be delivering live demos of my PhD Evoscope project in the Big Science Live space — sharing research, curiosity, and hands-on science with some fantastic learners.
Absolutely love being back here. Whoop! 🚀🔬

Is there a cooler way to enter your workspace for the day? 🚀
I’m at the HIAS Primary Science Conference today, running workshops at the Winchester Science Centre to share my Evoscope PhD project.

A great day of curiosity, creativity, and primary science in action.

Another research day, another unconventional poster. Accessible content with audio and visual QR codes. Let’s banish the boring!

It arrived! 📖 I shall henceforth be sending all of my gifts to be wrapped by @bertsbooks.bsky.social
Gorgeous wrapping and a gorgeous idea. Thank you.

Being pushed to choose between your values and your role at the BBC is unfair and painful. The fact that you chose compassion and solidarity speaks volumes about who you are. I’m really sorry you’re going through this, and I want you to know how supported you are.

Excited to be at the STEM Learning UK National Primary Science Conference!
I’ll be running a workshop demoing our Evoscope study with Milner Centre for Evolution (University of Bath) and chatting to teachers about getting involved.

Very much recommend giving this a watch. Turi’s work is always of the highest standard.
The news is out! Really nice piece by Jack Blackburn of @Times about the genetic study been leading into Hitler’s DNA. It’s been a massive group effort as part of a documentary with the team Blink Films & a huge number of experts! We have to put the caveats in and the article does that nicely.

🧫 🔬 I’m excited to be running free Evoscope demos at the Winchester Science Centre Home Education Day on 5th December!

Can’t wait to meet home-educating families and explore how evolution unfolds in real time through hands-on experiments.

The 2025 Curriculum Review is great news for STEM

✅ Depth over breadth
✅ Hands-on science
✅ Digital literacy
✅ Equity & progression.

My FREE Evolution Project brings these STEM priorities to life through engaging, hands-on learning.

For years I pondered how to make a game about evolution, and my answer is Clades. Players match animals according to their positions on the evolutionary tree of life. Everyone plays at once so it’s fast. FWIW, I get royalties on this one. Kids love animals! #evolution

Oh no! We have tickets and are really looking forward to it. We can’t get to London easily living in deepest darkest Wiltshire, so a massive thank you for trying to ensure accessibility.

Excited to be presenting at the STEM Learning Primary Conference!
I’ll be sharing practical tips for teaching evolution in the classroom, plus giving attendees a chance to get hands-on with our Evoscope project, developed at the @milnerevolution.bsky.social

This is going to be an excellent talk. Can’t wait.
We're so, so excited to be having @chrisgpackham.bsky.social come visit us and give a public talk. Chris is one of the foremost science communicators in the country and his work has so many synergies with our aims. It promises to be a really engaging evening! 🤩
