Looking forward to my 1st "virtual conference" when at 10:00 the @NEONHE #TakingOutreachOnline summit begins. A v.important topic that needs serious consideration & action during these challenging times. #OutreachOnline is the hashtag for the event for those following on #Twitter

As populations rise, the issue of managing the growing waste caused by the population increase urgently needs to be addressed. In this article Professor Freer explores the issues & possible solutions of energy from waste technologies in the Midlands. #EfW birmingham.ac.uk/research/en…

Our Good Friday @VirginAtlantic flight is loaded up with masks, eye protection and coveralls all donated by the Bank of China. We will be working over the Easter weekend to send more life saving supplies back to the NHS.

Thanks @PHoare1963 ! I would be celebrating if we were allowed to hold any events on campus!! I was aware of Sir Norman’s connection with @UniofNewcastle so a joint tribute is well justified. We’ll all be needing extra vitamin C if we’re confined too long! Hope you’re all well.
Replying to @mark_read
@mark_read I presume you're celebrating @chembham? So are we as a lot of his work was done in Newcastle (then King's College Durham) before he moved to Birmingham!

Almost that time of yr when I lecture the @KeeleMScESGT students about the role of #Nuclear in an increasingly decarbonised energy landscape. Last year my lecture finished at #HinkleyC, but thanks to @mark_read, I've added 2 final slides on @RollsRoyce #SmallModularReactors ☢️🔌

Great to see Dr Mike Read again... teaching us more about the chemistry of the universe. We're having an amazing time at the National Space Centre. @mike_read @Elfordstown

From the use of spectroscopy in space, to nuclear reactors, energy, propulsion and batteries! Great to be invited back by @spacecentre to engage 8 local schools with @RoySocChem Chem@work workshops. @RSC_MidsEd @bhamenergy @OutreachUOB @chembham

Indeed @Scott_Walker_1, I’ve always been a staunch advocate for the British @RollsRoyce #uksmr17 @uknuclearsmr reactors to deliver low cost, low carbon and reliable energy for the UK to meet Climate Targets! ☢️🇬🇧! @bhamenergy @chembham
Less than 24 hours after @mark_read addresses the @KeeleUniversity @IOPMidlands #Physics Centre, discussing #SmallModularReactors, look what appears on the BBC news website! It is as if those of us at Keele got a sneak preview! ☢️🔌👌 #RollsRoyce #Nuclear bbc.co.uk/news/business-5123…

Fantastic to stimulate public discussion at @KeeleUniversity @IOPMidlands on the role of #Nuclear in the UK’s Low Carbon Energy Future. Solution included @prslaterchem advanced batteries and hydrogen fuel cells too. @bhamenergy @chembham @SscgR @RSC_MidsEd
It was a real pleasure to host @mark_read at @KeeleUniversity @IOPMidlands #Physics Centre last night. Mark delivered a superb talk inc. why #Nuclear should be in the UK energy mix, how to immobilise HLW & how small modular reactors could form part of the soln. 67 in attendance!
