This March we’re joining the Sustrans #ActiveCommuteClub initiative. Sustrans are encouraging us to re-imagine our daily commutes to suit our current working day.



Use the time before and after your day begins to be more active, connect with the outdoors and re-establish the boundaries between your work and personal life.



This initiative will also help you get in the right frame of mind for work, improve your mental health and engage with colleagues.

Take the juggling challenge


[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/3b/5dc6b514ba2b4592b5b881.png]This is a fun five step challenge prepared for us by Kat and Cosmo from Think Circus, a group of performers based in Leith who deliver workshops across Scotland (some of you may remember Kat from hula hooping sessions in previous Wellbeing Weeks).



This is a skill you can learn on your own or with friends and family. It’s great fun, relaxing, but it also builds hand-eye coordination in ways that improves reaction time, reflexes, and spatial awareness.

[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v2files/shard1/85313/03/48ffa491eec946b08ecb86.jpg]Colleagues in the Department of Journalism, Media & Communication are seeking your help to answer a survey they have been advising on.



Scottish PEN is a centre of PEN International and not-for-profit organisation that champions freedom of expression and literature across borders.



It is currently leading a Defamation Reform campaign that seeks to update current legislation to accurately reflect the modern media landscape, offer effective protection for freedom of expression and ensure reputations can be protected equally for everyone.

Strathclyde has recorded its third win of the 2020-21 series of the BBC’s University Challenge, after defeating Birkbeck, University of London 135-105.



The team pulled back after their opponents had established an early lead and they remained ahead or level until the gong. In the course of the match, they displayed their knowledge of subjects including tennis champions, capital cities, the art of Tracey Emin and Japanese history.

High energy radiotherapy could ‘paint’ tumours to avoid harming healthy tissue<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/11f5jr5ty57xru4xfpp9cz/external?email=true&a=1&p=58858686&t=31139333>
Undertaken at the CERN Linear Electron Accelerator for Research (CLEAR) facility


A radiotherapy technique which ‘paints’ tumours by targeting them precisely, and avoiding healthy tissue, has been devised in research led by the University of Strathclyde.

Researchers used a magnetic lens to focus a Very High Electron Energy (VHEE) beam to a zone of a few millimetres. Concentrating the radiation into a small volume of high dose will enable it to be rapidly scanned across a tumour, while controlling its intensity.

It is being proposed as an alternative to other forms of radiotherapy, which can risk non-tumorous tissue becoming overexposed to radiation.

Fear of the light may help tiny ocean creatures survive a brighter future<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/1tg83j5gd3uxru4xfpp9cz/external?email=true&a=1&p=58858686&t=31139333>
Research co-led by the University of Strathclyde


An aversion to light has long been a survival tactic used by the smallest creatures in our ocean, but research co-led by the University of Strathclyde has discovered this photophobia may already be protecting them against impacts of environmental changes in the Arctic.



Known as zooplankton, these microscopic creatures swim hundreds of metres every day, up and down the water column in response to the changing light. By staying deep below the surface during the daytime, they can avoid predators. Only during the relative safety of night can they come nearer the surface to feed on phytoplankton.



Dr Laura Hobbs, Research Associate in Strathclyde’s Department of Mathematics and Statistics and Researcher with Strathclyde and the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS), is lead author of the report.

Four-year study involving 12 partners in eight countries


Researchers at the University of Strathclyde are part of an international study creating new photonic tools for accessing the deep brain, for the study and treatment of neurological diseases.



Strathclyde is the sole UK participant in DEEPER (Deep Brain Photonic Tools for Cell-Type Specific Targeting of Neural Diseases), which is investigating the deep-brain alterations underlying the origin of neurological and psychiatric diseases.



Researchers in Strathclyde’s Institute of Photonics and the Strathclyde Institute of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences will be developing optoelectronic devices to interface with the brain. This will allow the use of light to stimulate neurons, to further understanding of dementia, depression, addiction, schizophrenia and chronic pain.

Works have now commenced to develop a new Robotically-Enabled Sensing Hub in the Royal College Building.



The hub brings together advanced robotics with sensing technology to enable in–process inspection of high value composite and metal components.



Non-destructive testing (NDT) technologies including ultrasonic phased array, laser ultrasound and eddy-current inspection, will allow our researchers to help manufacturing and repair industries check the quality of components and make them quicker, easier and at lower cost.

"There is so much wildlife to see in the park, with The Kelpies acting as a giant aviary and the bird song is amazing.



"As an avid dog lover, I have also had the great pleasure of making so many new four legged friends, but maybe this is because they know there is a treat coming their way!"
