About Me

Dr Alice Howarth

Dr Alice Howarth

I am a science loving PhD cancer researcher with a passion for science accessibility. I like cell biology, scientific skepticism and equality. For almost 5 years I have been an integral part of The Merseyside Skeptics society - a non-profit organisation which aims to promote scientific reasoning, nationally and internationally. I am co-host of the successful podcast, Skeptics with a K where I discuss topical science stories on a fortnightly basis. I am a science communicator to a wide variety of audiences from school age children to interested members of the public and academic researchers.

Pretty Liverpool 😍
Isn't it great when you chat to a friend and can say something ridiculous like "I love slime mould" and they respond with something encouraging like "you are delightfully eccentric" and then when you explain why they are 100% on board with Dictyostelium discoideum - @umsfromumbridge These guys are so cool because they're single celled organisms. And yet, they work together cooperatively to form a slug to move around their areas efficiently in the search for food and then to grow up into these spore forming stalks to reproduce, with some dicty specialised to be stalk "cells" and others specialised to be spore "cells". This photo is from Wikipedia. It was taken by Usman Bashir of the Queller/Strassmann Research Group at Washington University in St. Louis. #nerd #ilovescience #myfriendsarethecoolest #science #dictyostelium #womeninstem

In Liverpool you can turn a corner and suddenly see three local icons emerging into the rain-laden sky. From Cornwallis Street, where out of shot stands an old public bath house from the 19th century to the gothic-esque Anglican Cathedral which was only completed in 1978, with the Chinese Arch, the tallest in Europe, and the Black-E, an old Chapel built in 1840 that was once black with grime, in between. #liverpoolicons #architecture #historicbuildings #rainycity
Cells attended to, while singing along loudly to music cos the lab was empty. Music is good for me 🔬🎶 #sciencesunday
Another day another iconic Liverpool building on a blue sky back drop #liverpool #itsliverpool #iloveliverpool
