Chemists including @ChemistClancy and @grwUCL have created the world's thinnest spaghetti, 200 times thinner than a human hair. It is not intended as food but as an eco-friendly nanofiber that could be used in smart bandages and to help bone regeneration ucl.ac.uk/news/2024/nov/chem…

Today marks the start of our 2024-25 academic year, and it has been wonderful to see our campuses come alive again.
If you’re joining us for the first time, welcome to UCL (and in many cases, London), and if you’re a returning student, welcome back! 👋🏾🏛️

BREAKING: Fox News has officially cut away from Donald Trump’s speech to cover this packed house in Savannah, Georgia at Kamala Harris’ rally. Even the media is acknowledging Kamala Harris has the energy and momentum. Retweet so all Americans see this.

BREAKING: Donald Trump in his latest interview was clearly having a difficult time making sense and getting his words out. It’s becoming clearer by the day that Trump is mentally in decline. Retweet so all Americans know Trump is too senile to be President.

If only there was some profession which could have prepared Starmer for no days off, no early finishes and a life and diary beyond his control.

Having a great time at #Electrospin2024… amazing science, and last night I think we set a world record for largest number of electrospinning scientists in a salt mine! Thank you so much to @UStachewicz and @AGH_fibers for hosting us 🙂
