I am concerned that researchers like me, whose work may be supported by #EPSRC but requires access to #STFC facilities, aren’t talking enough about the impacts that budget cuts will have on our ability to do science. I have written my thoughts down here: mccluskey.scot/2026/03/09/t....

Congratulations to Dr Gilles Bailet and his collaborators! 🎉

Using #EPSRC IAA funding, we've produced this video to showcase the now award-winning facility, the NextSpace TestRig 👇
