Let's talk about conflict of interest. It's an important topic - but a lot of people are very keen to deflect from their own interest, even though in contrast to academics, they benefit personally financially. Could personal financial gain be an important interest? Read on!

I've signed this emergency petition. There's no justification for supporting UUK’s cuts which will see USS institutions paying out huge sums to redress a deficit that does not exist. Action is needed now to avoid a staff exodus from higher education @ucu @UEA_UCU
🚨‼️ BREAKING: USS trustees have confirmed that the basis for cuts has disappeared, as assets hit £88bn. We need you to urgently: ❌ Lobby your VC to ask UUK to revoke the cuts: ucu.org.uk/article/12114/Ema… 📝 Sign the emergency petition to the JNC chair: speakout.web.ucu.org.uk/uss-…

#womenprofessors this open letter has attracted ~840 signatures so far and an article published in The Guardian. Please retweet. These cuts are unfair (UCU estimates 35% reduction) to all in the scheme and will disproportionally affect female academics now and in the future.

Cereals are a major source of iron in UK diet, but iron bioavailability can be low. Paul Sharp discusses @KingsCollegeLon nutrition research exploring micromilling, physically disrupting of plant cell walls to increase iron availability. Very interesting! #lockdownlearning
