Many congratulations to Dr Chris Fitch, announced as the latest winner of the @PhysicsNews Quantum Electronics and Photonics Doctoral Research Prize. A fantastic achievement for Chris, who started his PhD @UniOfSurrey after his retirement. iop.org/physics-commun…
#OTD William Thomson, better known as Lord Kelvin was born! This portrait can be seen in our permanent display at the #Hunterian Museum @UofGlasgow, memorialising the life and legacy of the prominent physicist. 🖼️H von Herkomer, 'Lord Kelvin', 1891. Oil on canvas.
On this day, 200 years ago, William Thomson, best known as Lord Kelvin, was born. One of the most prominent figures in UofG's history, his influence is still felt through the inventions, innovation, and inspiration that shaped the world in which we live. #Kelvin200 @UofGSciEng
I grew up working class. I’ve been fighting all my life. As Prime Minister, I’ll fight for you.

"What on earth would induce you to think that you are going to gain by giving up that relationship?"
We’re preparing to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Lord Kelvin, William Thomson, on 26 June this year with a host of events and activities. Read more about the pioneering inventor, innovator and inspiring figure on our new #Kelvin200 pages ➡️gla.ac.uk/explore/lordke…
Great to see this collaborative work published. It shows how doping can be used to improve the quality of Germanium layers grown on Silicon; key for the integration of photonic and electronic devices. nature.com/articles/s4159…
