New film about antibiotic resistance!
I have been working for months on this, including a trip to a rainy graveyard in Northern Ireland, to find out where researchers might find the next antibiotics. Something we sorely need.

If you want to hear some pokemon jokes then do give this a listen.
There's some stuff about science too, but I'm mostly here for the jokes.
Supernovae are bright. This one is EXTRA bright. Why?!
It's hard to study what's behind these super-bright cosmic explosions, but a wobble in the signal from this one gave it away🧪🔭
Here's the story from me with funky 90s graphics from the fab @danjfox.bsky.social

Block up part of the heart to prevent strokes? Yep, turns out the heart has an appendage you've probably never heard of, and if your heart beats too fast it can raise stroke risk.
So, these researchers made a magnetic fluid to solve that. New vid for @nature.com
A five-year-old child is playing with a small, fluffy AI-powered toy.

If you're a science reporter in the US who likes to write about tech, the environment and physical sciences then Nature might have the job for you!
Deadline 27th March!
If you like PS1 style graphics, weird physics and @lizziegibney.bsky.social (and let's face it who doesn't) then this film is probably for you.
Thanks for telling us all about the wonderful clash of worlds that is pokemon and science :D
This is fascinating listen and one that I struggle to get my head around — how do people not have mental images?! But I guess that is rather the point.
Thanks much to @danjfox.bsky.social, for supervising this and to Geoff Marsh for shooting some amazing footage.
