I'm very proud of Ryan Law @rmc-law.bsky.social who passed his PhD viva with flying colours. Onwards and upwards from here! Special thanks to examiners Paul Hoffman @paul-hoffman.bsky.social and Alex Woolgar @alexwoolgar.bsky.social. @mrccbu.bsky.social
Councils in chaos. Officers in limbo. Taxpayers' money wasted. Daniel Zeichner's response to Labour's Local Government Reorganisation shambles: make sure the unelected Development Corporation survives. Not exactly what Cambridge needs right now.
It was well worth getting up early this Sunday morning to be on the first train entering the new Cambridge South station, Trumpington, where I met South Cambridgeshire MP Pippa Heylings and Trumpington County Councillor David Levien, among many other team members. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

An update on Cambridge City Councils Leadership election and events at the AGM yesterday.
The early birds catch the vote. Use your vote today! With John Grimwood and Cllr David Levien.
On the doorstep on a beautiful day in Trumpington Meadows, with the great John Grimwood and a slightly blurred Philippa Slatter.
If you are interested in what some of your Trumpington councillors are up to, please browse our new website. There's more to come. It also contains some background information on the proposal for a Greater Cambridge Development Corporation and Local Government Reorganisation. trumpingtonlibdems.org

Instead of hunting for Easter eggs, John Grimwood and I joined a litter-picking group in Trumpington Meadows and searched for Marsbar wrappings and the like.
Cooling down after a hot day on the doors of Trumpington, with our community champion and @libdems.org.uk candidate John Grimwood. @cambridgelds.bsky.social
Good to see Sadiq Khan joining Wes Streeting and David Lammy in finally catching up with the Lib Dems on the need for a UK–EU customs union. We have led the way, won the vote in Parliament and will now fight to make sure Downing Street wakes up to the damage done by Brexit too.
At first I thought we had beavers in Trumpington. But it turns out that it's humans who are currently putting logs and branches into Hobson's Brook, to speed up water flow, which benefits the wildlife in this precious chalk stream. Thank you very much to the crew for the educational chat.
It was great to join @charlotte-cane-mp.bsky.social for her tour around Addenbrooke’s Emergency Department and Urgent Care Centre. Interesting to see how digital technologies are used to speed up the process.
In 2025, sustainability moved from glossy goals to the hard reality of implementation. Despite the challenges, momentum proved resilient. Our Annual Review launches today - showing how Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership works to help leaders shape future markets 👉 ow.ly/Lh4c50Y4oPe

This week, the govt wrote to Cambridge City Council, giving Labour the option to cancel May's local elections. I believe they should go ahead. Before 15th Jan, please write to the Labour Councillors here - democracy.cambridge.gov.uk/mgMemberIndex.… & tell them democracy delayed is democracy denied.

Great to be out in Trumpington today with @cambridgelds.bsky.social supporting Councillor @olafhauk.bsky.social in his re-election.
I greatly enjoyed helping out Cambridgeshire's fantastic three Lib Dem MPs who met the CEO of Cambridge Ahead today, discussing the many challenges our region faces. @charlotte-cane-mp.bsky.social @pippaheylings.bsky.social @iansollom.bsky.social @cambridgeahead.bsky.social @libdems.org.uk
It was hard to say goodbye after two intense and exciting weeks at COGNESTIC 2025. Thank you to all our attendees for making it such a fantastic event. From fMRI to football, EEG/MEG to electric golf, we enjoyed every moment of science, ideas, networking, and fun — even the sun joined in.
#COGNESTIC's last afternoon talk is given by Kate Baker on "Applying neuroimaging to understand rare genomic disorders". @mrccbu.bsky.social
