Court & Spark

It was the York University Court meeting yesterday http://www.york.ac.uk/about/organisation/governance/court/. Danielle is a member and I get to go to the dinner after the meeting. It is always an interesting event and this year we met people involved in applied science projects at the University. One scientist was growing replacement bladders for people with bladder cancer [she proudly pointed out that they could grow one the size of a football pitch if need be] and another was developing means of monitoring correct drug dosages for people with Parkinsons. All very inspiring. Turned out the Parkinsons man is an electronics engineer, so we got onto guitar pedals and that he also plays bass, so we may have an extra band member.
