• I recently wrote a column for The Totnes Pulse to combat misinformation about Covid-19, the vaccine and Vitamin D, and to answer some common questions about the pandemic. I also developed this presentation for young people for the Stephen Hawking Foundation, about vaccine safety and critical thinking.

• In 2019 I co-founded the group Scientists for Extinction Rebellion, whose Declaration Statement in Support of Non-Violent Direct Action Against Government Inaction on the Climate and Ecological Emergency has now been signed by more then 1,7000 scientists across the globe.

• I am the lead author of the free online easy-to-read guide to the climate and ecological crisis Emergency on Planet Earth, for adults and teenagers. See this piece on the Scientists Warning website about the guide and why I wrote it and this article I wrote in The Scotsman about the need for urgent action. See my climate talks playlist on my YouTube channel for a selection of recent talks and interviews I have given on the crisis. I am also a member of the Scientific Advisory Board for the Scientists' Warning Foundation.

• In December 2020 I gave the Institute of Engineering and Technology's (IET) Christmas Lecture on Emergency on Planet Earth - understanding what's going on on our planet and what we can do about it. Watch it here. In November 2020 I gave the opening talk at the Cambridge Zero Climate Change Festival, on what's really going on on our planet and why, where we are heading and what we can all do to help - and also touching on my journey into activism and why I've devoted my life to raising awareness about the crisis. You can watch the talk here.

• I did a family show at the Cambridge Zero Climate Change Festival, based on my books Brain-fizzing Facts and World-whizzing Facts (see below). Watch it here. And I recently made a series of short videos on understanding climate change and wildlife loss and dealing with the emotions that come up around these issues with Andy Cameron from Healthy Mind UK for the opening of the Youth Climate Summit 2020. Watch the primary schools version here and the secondary schools version here.

• I am an ambassador for the Jewish Genetic Disorders charity Jnetics (presenting talks and workshops in Jewish secondary schools across London to raise awareness about the importance of genetic testing), and for the charity Inspiring Engineering (a website to inspire young people into engineering professions); a patron of the Aspergillosis Trust patient advocacy group and of Kinetic Science - a charity which inspires children to consider science and maths as career options - and a Sheffield Methods Institute (SMI) visiting Fellow at the University of Sheffield, where my role involves providing communication skills training events, giving talks and lectures to staff and students, and being a member of the SMI Advisory Board.

• Over the past five years I have given over 200 talks on a variety of cutting edge science topics at more than 80 schools, 20 universities, and at a variety of live events such as The Hay Festival, The Science Museum, Cheltenham Science Festival and The British Science Festival.

• In 2019 I was a member of the Bank of England Banknote Advisory Committee who chose Alan Turing to be the face of the new polymer £50 note. You can listen here to an interview I did on BBC Radio 4's Inside Science about the campaign or you can watch interviews I gave on Sky News and Channel 5 News. Watch a video here of the Bank of England Committee sharing our thoughts about the selection process, watch an interview I gave on Sky News about why we chose Turing, or read an opinion piece I wrote in The Guardian about it.

• At the 2017 STEM Inspiration Awards at The House of Lords, I was named as the second Honorary STEM Ambassador alongside astronaut Tim Peake, for my work in STEM education and as a role model to young women. Honorary STEM Ambassadors are representatives of the 30,000 STEM Ambassadors across the UK, and stand as champions for the importance of STEM education.

• From 2013-2016 I spent six seasons as a resident member of the panel of experts for Sky1's celebrity panel show Duck Quacks Don't Echo hosted by Lee Mack. You can catch previous episodes on repeat.

• In 2015 I was also the resident science expert on ITV's The Alan Titchmarsh Show and an expert on Discovery Channel's How Do They Do It?

• On my YouTube Channel you can find numerous media interviews, as well as a short film I wrote and presented for Visit Guernsey on the science behind how to have a happy holiday, a series called Cinema Science I wrote and presented for for BBC BritLab taking a look at the science behind what goes on in the movies, and a series on The Senses for The Royal Institution. The episode on How To Stop Yourself Being Ticklish has received over 430,000 views.

• I have been trained to deliver the WISE Campaign's People Like Me STEM careers workshops for girls aged 11-14.
