It's not everyday you get to climb at work. Oh wait, now it is thanks to our new boulder wall!
Thanks @unikrems.bsky.social for this new research (and climbing) opportunity!

Love supporting my talented friends... especially when it involves a fancy dinner at the beautiful Rathaus (city hall) 👀
(Scots are suckers for free food)
Excited for my pod co-host Megan as she starts her big project on animal innovation!

Some weekends are for switching off, taking a breath and just listening to the sound of the river

Always a pleasure to go to the pub and learn about cool stuff at Pint of Science. Who knew water treatment could be so interesting!
Glad there are scientists out there both removing harmful things from the water and figuring out how to extract the excess useful things.

Do you (mostly) work in an office?
Do you feel like procrastinating for a couple of minutes?
-> then help my student out by completing this 5-min survey 😀

Super excited to be finalising a project Megan Lambert, me (and Hamish) have been working on for some time.
Can't wait to share it with you all in the new year 🤩
Watch this space for some #AnimalBehaviour #SciComm
ps Hamish was wildly uncooperative so we'll probably have to scrap his contribution

In case you missed my poster at #EHPS2024 check it out here. More details at the OSF project too.
In short - an at-home smartphone intervention reduced smartphone use by ~2.5hrs PER DAY in teenagers. More data to be analysed, watch this space! 🔍📱

#HiSciSky I'm a psychologist studying mental health and psychotherapy but I also have a background in animal behaviour research (eles, canids).
I post about mental wellbeing in #academia and also new science that I find cool! #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky
