Looks like this will be an interesting edition of the journal. Will it be open access so that teachers can read the papers?

This week has already been busy prepping @YouandCO2CCE for stage 2 trials in schools, and exploring new funding opportunities. Looking for a big one so I can just collaborate with all kinds of experts to create interactive digital narratives to communicate tons of topics!

#SciComm tip - when you're communicating about your science or research journey, or when profiling another scientist, don't leave out stories about struggles, work-life balance, and how teamwork was critical to success. Let's not "sell" science as a solo "genius" endeavor.

This week the UK passes the grim milestone of 50,000 official COVID-19 deaths. A disproportionate number of those deaths come from the most deprived communities. Tomorrow at 1.30pm we'll be talking health inequalities, vaccines & more. What would you like to ask our scientists?
