RIP "naked ape" and #scienceWriter #DesmondMorris. I seem to remember that half a century ago his radical idea of describing #humans as nothing but mammals impressed and influenced me quite a bit.

I'm doing a bit of research for something I'm writing on NF-κB and came across this gem of a paper. I am having this struggle right now. 😂

really enjoyed #WritersInOxford alternative #LiteraryFestival yesterday - there were 9 of us very briefly presenting our new books published within the last 12 months. I was the only #ScienceWriter, although there are of course quite a few in #Oxford

oh. #RIP #TimRadford, #ScienceWriter extraordinaire. He actually gave me a brief introduction to the job many years ago. I remember I couldn't get a word in edgewise. and he commissioned/edited a few stories I wrote for the grauniad. Back in the days of the ever-changing pullout sections dedicated to science / #technology.

👶 Got a kid in childcare? This blog post about early respiratory illnesses is for you. As a microbiologist mom, I became interested in this topic after my son started daycare and brought home illness after illness.
📚 I was fueled by 20% curiosity and 80% exasperation to search the scientific literature to see what studies had been done in this area... because I really wanted to know when the deluge of illnesses will subside. 😩
Hope this is helpful!

Here is the cover for *From Typewriters to Twitter:Celebrating 50 Years of Science Writing* -- my pet project during the pandemic. (Pretty excited about this)
This might be the only book that chronicles science writing/ #scicomm in #Canada A digital version is available for free to members of the SWCC (after you log onto the website a link should appear under About). Non-members should contact the association directly and ask (not sure if there's a small fee or if it's free too?). 92 pages, lots of historical photos, short bios of some extraordinary and often eccentric and high-profile writers who helped shaped Canada's science writing landscape. Controversies! Romance! Serious stuff! Fun stuff! The impactful awards program! This book had input from over 20 people who played various roles in the association. This isn't an in-depth analysis, but chronicles important events and an evolving media association. There are no plans at this point for a print copy, but if interested send a note to the SWCC office expressing interest.

Dear friends,
@BBCWorld hosted an illuminating discussion around Rachel Carson, the influential #sciencewriter most famous for Silent Spring. Very much worth the listen. A quote from her that ended the show was worth the wait.
