    This is one utterly tragic news story in the midst of thousands of similar stories of grief and despair. Dima was an Erasmus student in @UofGlasgow a few years ago - the @WHO DG’s message says it all. We share their grieving for one of our own. Ceasefire and release hostages now.

    My colleagues and I are devastated: we have lost one of our own in #Gaza today. Our young @WHOoPt colleague Dima Alhaj was tragically killed alongside her 6 month old baby, her husband and 2 brothers. Reportedly multiple other family members sheltering in the same house were

    Really important - a well crafted motion which in extremis avoids no deal by revoking art 50. No reason for any MP who *genuinely* opposes no deal not to support this cross-party motion if no other solution is acceptable to HoC.

    In 1870 all of @UofGlasgow's all male senior leaders took part in a photo. 150 years on, for #IWD2020, some of my senior women colleagues have recreated it. This new version shows how far we have come - but we intend to move forward this conversation and deliver further action

    A moving, wonderful new poem written by @JackieKayPoet for @UofGlasgow as the university signs a historic Memorandum of Understanding with the University of West Indies @UWImona . An important first step. Thank you to all my colleagues for making this happen.

    Fantastic news from @scotgov this morning. A demonstration that Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 welcomes talented EEA/EU 🇪🇺 students - many contributing actively to our economy after graduation.

    EU citizens starting their studies in 2020/21 will get the same support as Scottish students - even if current legal obligations to EU students cease to apply when the UK exits the EU. Scotland is the first nation in the UK to offer this commitment: bit.ly/2DnOOrt

    Spent a couple of days at the QEUH for some tests (nothing serious). I am just in awe not only at the professionalism of @NHSGGC staff but their constant kindness and good humour to patients in a v busy environment. Very grateful to have access to such a fantastic health service.

    I wrote this because of the strange way in which the media characterises universities as being ‘closed’. We have never been closed during #Covid_19 Our colleagues and students have responded magnificently and in an unprecedented way to the pandemic. The media should open its eyes
