One of my favourite things about this figure (sketched by Charles Darwin in one of his notebooks in 1837) is the “I think” at the top. Beyond an illustration of his evolving thoughts on descent with modification, the image somehow captures the essence of scientific curiosity. #DarwinDay 2026
✅ The UK Government has today granted access to half a million UK Biobank participants' coded GP data for health research. This change will dramatically increase the power of UK Biobank's dataset to advance the diagnosis, treatment and management of conditions handled by GPs.
