Paul Sutton (zleap)British Science Week
6th March to 15th March
We were pleased to welcome teachers and careers leaders yesterday to SWC, together with the Central London Careers Hub.
After touring our facilities, meeting staff and students to discuss diverse #neuroscience careers, they took part in an ‘escape room’ activity workshop.

Met OfficeOur second graph shows the UK annual mean temp before 1994 when #BritishScienceWeek started 👇
Although there’s a rise in 1990, it doesn’t exceed the increase during the 1940s.
This emphasises the warming trend in the last 30 years shown in our previous graph.

Do you know how much the UK #climate has changed since #BritishScienceWeek started 30 years ago?
This graph shows how our UK annual mean temperature has evolved 👇
Half of the 30 years since 1994 have beaten the UK’s warmest year on record at that time (1990). #BSW24 🧵1/2

Meet Ada Lovelace – nicknamed ‘The Enchantress of Number’ by her peers, her discoveries about the algorithmic potential for an Analytical Engine in 1843 made her the world's first computer programmer 👩🔬

Portrait of Ada, Countess of Lovelace, almost three-quarter length, in profile to left with head turned and looking to front, holding a closed fan in both gloved hands; wearing pink dress with shawl, hair worn up with wide curls to either side of her face, a white band with large white flower and sprigs with yellow flowers, and long black diaphanous scarf trailing over her left shoulder and also behind her. Pen and brown ink with brush drawing and watercolour, edges cut to an octagon

Andrew (Batmo) BealeWe use spectroscopy to measure the amount of elements in cells. But sometimes I forget the basis of the technique. So thanks to @Observatory_Sci for the helping a scientist rediscover some old tricks with this demo - a visit on #BritishScienceWeek no less!
UbiquityHappy #BritishScienceWeek! From 2007-2013, FP7 funded educational institutions to join forces and engage in alternative ways to teach science all over Europe. @ubiquitypress's #openbook of the week, 'Garden Learning', explores one of these projects, INQUIRE. 🌱🔓📖 #OpenAccess
