Possibly a little early arriving for the Nigel Botting Meeting here at St Andrew's. At least I got a parking place.#NBM30

In charge of Chemistry at SSERC. If you're teaching chemistry in Scotland (and beyond) we're here to help. (Opinions all my own)
Getting ready for the off. A good turnout here at SSERC HQ in Dunfermline. #SSERC #SSERCTechnicianConference
En route to London for a meeting with #CLEAPSS. Plane not too late and decent weather... in Edinburgh at least. Fingers crossed.
A great 2 days with some lovely technicians on SSERC's Senior Phase Chemistry course. It was lovely to meet (or re-meet) We had a great time, I hope you did too.
If the H&S session doesn't tickle your fancy. There is a cehmistry one at 4:00pm on some chemistry related to the number 60 - paramagnetism, complexes and microtitrations. All welcome. teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-joi...

Evening all. A bit late on this. But as part of the SSERC 60 celebrations, I'm doing a session on the Advisory service - A brief history and then a live Q&A. 2pm tomorrow if you fancy it. teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-joi...

ELECTRIC BUNSEN BURNERS it occurs to me that it would be useful to find out about usage I would be grateful for any input. 1. Is your school using them? (details of location, even just country, would be helpful). 2. If so, do you have any comments on their usability, safety etc?
Great first day on the AH Chemnistry Projects course. Analysis, Extraction and Synthesis - enough to keep any chemist happy. And there's more tomorrow!
A great day at St Andrews. Great lectures, lunch in the sunshine and some fascinating demonstrations of anthocyanins to finish off.
Another fabulous day for the Nigel Botting meeting in St Andrews.Looking forward to a great day.
This is interesting. www.livescience.com/space/meteor...

Hi Everyone. SSERC Chemistry has made the jump to Bluesky. Here's a pretty picture of a (so far) vain attempt to use potassium permanganate to determine the amount of alcohol in a solution. Not giving up yet though.
