A recent cartoon for @newscientist #science #scifi
Two figures walk towards a building. One says to the other: “I got mixed up and sent my grant proposal to my publisher and my science-fiction novel to the funding board. They both got approved. So now I have to write a novel about eel migration and build a fleet of telepathic crabs that fight climate change with lasers.”

Studying the brief and tiny quantum effects that drive living systems could one day lead to new approaches to treatments and technologies.

My opinion piece out in @PhysicsMagazine: “It is time to take Quantum Biology research seriously”! TY @APSphysics for opening a space to discuss #QuantumBiology among physicists. Your support matters. TY @KatRWright for the support and superb editing! physics.aps.org/articles/v16…

It’s Time to Take Quantum Biology Research Seriously

Understanding the possible quantum-driven behaviors of biological systems could aid in treating injuries or in developing cures for diseases, but research in the field has been pushed to the sideli...

When will we solve this #inequality issue? It's not one institute problem, but a nationwide issue. #gender #discrimination Women scientists at famed oceanography institute have half the lab space of men @ScienceMagazine science.org/content/article/…

Quantum science and technology is exciting when discussed accurately and responsibly. It's disappointing that @TIME would publish such a misleading article.

Ever since I started research on the hypothesised quantum compass of magnetoreception, I've wanted to paint this. In the meantime, here's a DALL·E 2 rendition!
