Hello to those of you joining us here πŸ™‚
Our account at Twitter/X is still alive for now but most of the science stuff seems to be happening over here. It's much more pleasant isn't it? The feed is full of wonderful science related posts, not political jibes and bigots.
Plus, it works with Firefox!
