Great to see so many of our researchers involved in this public engagement event today - including @__MorganM @heidijoberg @HollyBridge8 @lilwebian @caM1GABAreilles and Football on the Brain education lead @louiseaukland
It was all hands on deck at our research centre @OxfordWIN this morning, as we hosted 45 secondary students and staff from the @OxfordSDGLab Young Sport Leaders Programme. Students got to participate in 7 activities combining neuroscience & sport, including an MRI demo!

I’d like to be clear; I didn’t contribute to this article & my work has been misrepresented. Genuinely sad to see the same myths doing the rounds again. I’m happy to speak with any journalist who’d like to accurately represent the science & women’s sport theguardian.com/football/202…

Honoured to be featured at Reuben College @UniofOxford as part of @__MorganM ‘s incredible ’Other than Oxford’ project showcasing the talent of many esteemed colleagues. I’ve never been one to take note of my background/ethnicity, but love to know it could inspire many others 🙏

It was truly a pleasure and a privilege to get the opportunity to have @toyinyacncay share her journey with me for @royalsociety Reclaiming Narratives blog series for Black History Month! 🎉 What an achievement 👏🏾, what an inspiration 🙌🏾, what a woman! 💪🏾 ✨
In September, Professor Bernadine Idowu’s career rocketed to new heights as newly minted Professor of Biomedical Sciences at the University of West London, only the 73rd black female professor in the UK. In the last of our #ScienceWrite blogs for #BlackHistoryMonth, Morgan Mitchell explores her story: royalsociety.org/blog/2024/1…

So pleased to be able to share the stories of these 2 incredible scientists studying @UniofOxford. I'll be sharing their stories along with others at an exhibition @ReubenCollege next month!
