Great to be in Edinburgh for the 2026 Edinburgh Science Festival.

Despite pesky train cancellations, I made it to the De Vere Cranagh Estate Hotel in Cheshire for a New Scientist “Mysteries of the Universe” weekend.

Probably one of the best events I have ever done.

It was an honour to be in the Fred Hoyle lecture theatre at the Institute of Astronomy talking about black holes.

It was a lovely sunny Spring day in Oxford.

London’s Science Museum: more fun than you might think.

Very happy to get this very nice book review in The New York Times two days before the US publication of A Crack in Everything!

Great to be in Brighton!

It’s always an incredible privilege to talk at London’s Royal Institution.

Spent 24 hours this weekend living it up in the Cheshire countryside!
