Huge congratulations to my PhD student George Ferguson on passing his VIVA! 🎓 His work uncovers how molecules interact with DNA, offering fresh insight into cancer-related processes and drug design. Proud of this milestone — well done, George! 👏 @SCCESurrey @QB_DTC

🚨: Scientists mapped 1 mm³ of a human brain ─ less than a grain of rice ─ and a microscopic cosmos appeared.
Great to see some of our 2024 @LeverhulmeTrust - supported Quantum Biology Doctoral Training Centre students at @UniSurreyBioSci graduating this year (from left to right) Michael Clark-Whittet, Federico Bertagna and Eve Nery. Congratulations to each of them!

A paper in @NatureElectron reports a hybrid computing system, called Brainoware, consisting of electronic hardware and a brain organoid, which can perform tasks such as speech recognition and nonlinear equation prediction. go.nature.com/3RvrmOe

Inspired by the structure of polar bear fur, researchers in Science present a knittable aerogel fiber with exceptional thermal and mechanical properties.
The fibers are washable, dyeable, durable, and well-suited to be used in advanced textiles. scim.ag/5q2

Nice piece in @guardian on the Big Ring, a giant circle of galaxy clusters more than a billion lightyears across, discovered by @missalexialopez. No structure should be that big. Is it forcing us to rethink the structure and evolution of the universe?
“This is huge” - I totally recommend seeing The Secrets of Size with @jimalkhalili on @BBCiPlayer - wild stuff! bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…
