Spending the day at the UK Cosmo meeting here at Imperial College, with excellent talks by young cosmologists from around the country. We’ll also be taking the opportunity to remember the great Tom Kibble, one of the founders of cosmology here at Imperial and throughout the UK (and the world).

UK Cosmology Meeting
The next UK Cosmology Meeting will take place at Imperial College London on March 25th 2026. [Registration is closed]. This one-day event aims to bring together the whole cosmology community in the UK to discuss recent trends in theoretical and observational cosmology. We will have several talks by young researchers and PhD students in the field, a plenary talk by Danièle A. Steer (LPENS and Université Paris Cité), and a poster session. Please feel free to email us if you have any questions.
Just recorded a segment on probability, randomness, cosmology and The Random Universe for “The Science Show” with Richard Marshall on Resonance FM. It will be broadcast at 3pm on Monday 6 April (and available on MixCloud from then on…).

In honor of the coming vernal equinox, my first cycle ride into work since October.
Thanks to Richard Marshall — and a fantastic audience, especially! — for a great evening of cosmology, cosmological tensions, and beer @pubsci.bsky.social.
Off to The Old King’s Head for some cosmology.
