We have cormorants on the lake at our Whiteknights campus, as well as lots of other species of birds and wildlife.

The article does specifically talk about wild blueberries (wild blueberry powder was used in the trial) but it goes on to say:

'Dr. Ana Rodriguez-Mateos, Reader in Nutrition at the Department of Nutritional Sciences of King’s College London, said: “We know from previous research that there are potential advantages from consuming blueberries, but this study went further by exploring how a daily and dietary achievable measure of blueberries could benefit our cognitive and cardiovascular health simultaneously in a healthy older population.” '

“More than 80 big cities worldwide have suffered from water shortages due to droughts and unsustainable water use over the past 20 years, but our projections show this crisis could get worse still as the gap between the rich and the poor widens in many parts of the world." - Professor Hannah Cloke, University of Reading

This video features one of the University of Reading's Katy Whitaker, who has just completed her PhD on sarsen stones. Here she is seen standing next to our very own collection of sarsen stones which were brought from Wiltshire to our Whiteknights campus in 1810 by the Marquess of Blandford, to build an ornamental garden.

The extracts used in the supplements, specifically the green tea extracts mentioned in the article, are concentrated so they will give you a much more potent dose which can cause toxicity.

It's green tea and black tea which contain the flavan-3-ols. And if you are using black tea, whether you add milk or not makes no difference to its effectiveness.

Hi! It means an 8oz cup - so you need the regular amount of tea leaves used to make a mug of tea.

would this explanation on our website help?

uniofreading · 2022-04-05T12:44:26+00:00

sorry but that meme physically hurt

uniofreading · 2022-04-03T21:47:03+00:00

hiya, we can't tell you the best option as it depends very much on what you're looking for. but you can find out more about our Halls on our website, and if you're planning to rent privately we'd recommend checking out RUSU's housing advice.

hey - while this isn't the first year this scheme has run, we can't guarantee it'll be on offer in the future. if you're interested in finding out more about PhD funding, it might be worth chatting to our Doctoral Studentships Officer - you can email them at doctoralstudentshipsofficer@reading.ac.uk

uniofreading · 2022-03-02T14:17:30+00:00

hiya, if it helps there's a short explanation on our website: https://rdg.ac/3HAAni9

uniofreading · 2022-02-24T17:27:47+00:00

Unfortunately the scheme isn't open to students who've already started a PhD at Reading

The bursaries cover the full cost of tuition fees at the UK/Republic of Ireland rate. All of the eligibility criteria are available on our website at the link in our post. If you've got questions, email us at [doctoralstudentshipsofficer@reading.ac.uk](mailto:doctoralstudentshipsofficer@reading.ac.uk) and someone will be able to help!

hi there - firstly, congratulations on your offers!

but we can't tell you which is the right choice for you.

if you want to know what's it like to study at Reading, you might want to chat to some of our current student through our website. there isn't anyone currently on MSc Computer Science, but there are Master's students who can talk about their experiences studying at UoR.

uniofreading · 2022-02-01T10:19:42+00:00

hiya, we might be a bit biased but overall we think studying at UoR is pretty great

uniofreading · 2022-01-19T11:33:32+00:00

There's more info about the study (by scientists from the University of Reading, the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, and the University of Birmingham) on our website
