NEW RESEARCH! 🌏✨🎉🥳 Do #lamprey larvae ingest #microplastics in areas of #conservation and #urban sites? So happy to be sharing this #NEW #openaccess paper & second first-author paper on #microplastics! please RT @UK_CEH @StirlingScience @NERCscience https://t.co/L43v9NzuHm

Loud enough for you, @StirUni ? @ucu @StirlingSolspa

An amazing crowd for this morning's strike rally - staff and students coming together this call on management to negotiate now!

Thank you to all the incredible #students for this recognition of excellence in #teaching, a huge surprise for my first year of teaching at @StirUni! Very grateful to be a part of a supportive community, thank you for the award & shortlist @stirlingunion @StirBES @StirlingScience

Congratulations to the RATE Teaching Award winners @FloraRendell for innovation in teaching and @bradduthie for excellence in teaching. Also shortlisted for commitment to EDI and inclusion @AlanLaw_ and Verity Flower @StirlingScience @StirBES @stirlingunion

As an environmental advocate, I am often asked if I have hope. But how can you when you see a graph like this? “Do you have hope for the future?” “What gives you hope?” These are questions that I have grappled with for years, and my response may be quite blunt. 1. Hope is a

Many thanks to everyone who came to my poster showcasing @StirUni @UK_CEH @UofGlasgow and @sceneUofG research at #SETACDublin @SETAC_plastics @SETAC_world! If you���d like to read some more lamprey work, follow this link to our recent open access paper https://t.co/L43v9NzuHm

Many thanks for the opportunity to present our recently published work @Scottish_FwGrp! A fantastic meeting with some very exciting and varied research🥳🌊🌿🍃Check out our paper here https://t.co/L4zQOzcPxZ @UK_CEH @StirUni

So happy to see this research paper published. But sad to see proof that microplastics are being ingested by WOL lamprey. Especially as we know #Otter cubs born on the river last year were fed lamprey as their first meal ! #plasticpollution @BBCWinterwatch @IoloWilliams2

We seek participants for a study of people's emotional responses to the #ClimateCrisis & decisions about taking #ClimateAction. More info: https://t.co/jVyFT8p4hi Please watch this space for more dates ahead too!

The team at Climate in Mind is looking for research participants interested to talk about #ClimateChange & decisions about taking #ClimateAction. First online event below, more to follow! More info: https://t.co/2m2ca87TJy

If you watched the recent series of BBC @BBCSpringwatch, you'll have heard mention of research into #microplastics uptake by lampreys... Now read more in the new paper from @FloraRendell ⬇️ https://t.co/OaeBzGPqSa

Interested in an exciting technical post for an ecologist working in a field station in some of the most important habitats in Scotland? We have a new position at SCENE on Loch Lomondside @sceneUofG @GlasgowUniFish https://t.co/hh4XNDRQv4

6⃣ and to @BBCWinterwatch for featuring our work!

5⃣ thank you to all those who offered valued advice and guidance along the way @ProfColinBean @thatlampreyguy @WOLCT @lxbllngs @Forth_Rivers @ForthRiversT @ClydeRF @RiverTweedNews

4⃣ fantastic collaboration between @StirBES and @UK_CEH using micro-FTIR techniques

📭Open access article from @FloraRendell work on #microplastics in protected laprey species, now available! Collaboration between @StirUni and @UK_CEH https://t.co/PUlsBd1SJB

3⃣ #microplastic load and #polymer type are distinct between sites

2⃣ #microplastic #contamination was present at all sites

1⃣ #microplastics were identified in #protected #lamprey and sediment habitat
