So, I've joined the mass migration! Here's a wee #introduction:

I'm a science journalist interested in stories about people & science: how we generate evidence, how we use evidence, how we treat the people involved in the process.

New Scot ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ, but always Saffa ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ, with an increasingly weird hybrid accent. Talk to me about bikes, running, music, and dogs.

@cathleenogrady welcome. Iโ€™m fairly new here too. If I may make a suggestion to newcomers: after the prose portion of your introductory toot, and your bio, use hashtags liberally to connect other users who share your interests. For example, #science #sciencejournalism #scicomm #dogs #cycling #music #runner

And hashtag any toot that you want people (especially non-followers) to find.

@cathleenogrady Fancy seeing you here! How have you been? Omg.

Hi Cathleen !

I've been trying to get some traction under an opportunity to bridge the gap between the Physical Sciences

(specifically, Aerodynamics)

& Society

(particularly, those travelling by air...).

Aerodynamics is crying out for an overhaul (its best theories are 'unrealistic' and paradoxical); Aviation needs way better fuel efficiency and lower emissions.

So a new view of the evidence is win/win. It's called The Pneumofoil.

Any interest...?
