@elinlowri RE: What makes a great medic. *Actually* listening to patient; being willing to learn and not always know best; being honest.

@dreadncircuses I love how C4 have wheeled out the disabled reporters that they usually keep behind a desk. Makes me sick the falseness.

The 7-fold replicates in all my studies are because I can't work out how to tell spec to only count first 3 cuvettes #overlyhonestmethods

@dreadncircuses I believe the appropriate interjection the Young People use at this juncture is "tune!".

Ok Twitter, RT please - I need some help! Can someone find me a casting agent/etc who casts people for adverts? I have a question!!!

@hapsci I would say that if you don't have papers you're buggered no matter how much PE you've done. Concentrate on that side of CV first.

In the same ilk as @everydayableism, I have created @dailylgbtphobia to catalogue the experiences of non-heterosexual worldwide. Please RT.

Parents: access ramps outside/in shops are for people who need them to get in/out. Not for your child to play on with bike @everydayableism

@lardychap It's mutilation. Calling it "circumcision" dumbs down the brutality/cruelty of it. It's only circumcision if medically NEEDED.

@cox_tom My Aunty Molly is not a vampire. As soon as you answer the door she just walks in and sits down, often via the toilet.

@hapsci From my point of view as a PI, if I can't see any evidence of 1-2 papers/yr for a postdoc, I'm wary of their output.

@hapsci I hear that a lot - the comeback line is "Well ALL 7 UK research councils now demand PE and hold it on par with peer reviewed papers

@onisillos @hapsci For almost everyone I've ever worked with, science isn't a job but a way of life.

@mattleys A mate's parents are doing House In The Sun just for the free holiday to the US. They're not interested in buying at all.
