Unlike, say, cancer screening, or court cases. Or - to get closer to the bone - oxbridge entrance exams; these things are absolute, and evidently always correct. University rankings being an educated guess is clearly very, very bad.

Nice way to start the week. Ventricular ectopy mapped to basal inferior LV, suppressed and eliminated with first RF lesion. @DrAhranArnold @ImperialEP @Krishia_OB @BiosenseWebster

Completely agree. The UK research funding model systematically and deliberately fails to fund the full economic cost of research. And innovation primarily delivers impact not income - the wealth generation effects are in the broader economy around the university
I’m all in favour of greater research translation to innovation, but the notion that this can be a sustainable flow of income to fund universities is fanciful. Look at the US. Even industry-funded research in the U.K. struggles to make a net financial contribution to Universities

Analysis of 2 years worth of Founder intros to VC’s: 90% US investors respond within 48 hrs; UK investors: polarised. 75% reply within 3 weeks or not at all. Small % respond within 48 hrs.
This had to be done. I am not sorry!

These irreplaceable, centuries-old cedars in the Caycuse valley (Ditidaht territory) - & the unique ecosystems they are an integral part of - were mowed down by Teal Jones Group, the largest privately owned logging company in BC.
