Friday 15th May saw the first get together of the UK Science Tweeps; a group of individuals who had previously met only via Twitter. Karen James organised the evening, pulling us together under the Twitter tag #ukscitweetup. Play the podcast to meet some of the science tweeps and get a flavour of the evening. And, if you like what you hear, join us next time!

Since the mid 1980s, I've worked in university and industrial research, as a manager and editor in technology and environment for an international NGO, and held senior business development, strategy, and procurement posts in industry. I hold a PhD in chemical engineering from Birmingham University, an MBA from Warwick University Business School, and an MSc in Science Communication from Imperial College. In 2008, I left industry to focus full-time on my passion for science and technology, and to share that enthusiasm with others as a freelance science communicator. I live in London with my American wife Erin.
Wow! I’m so impressed …and inebriated – so inebriated …and way too British-inflected.
There you all are! Sounds like a good time was had by all. Nice to put some voices with the faces.
Pub science – the only sort that matters
Thanks Tim – great to put some voices to names!
