Time for an #introduction: I am a lecturer in #criminology at Edinburgh Napier University.

My main interest is #zemiology, the study of social harms, and my research focuses on migration and border harms.

I am also an amateur birder and I am interested in environmental harms, particularly raptor persecution.

I mostly toot about my work, plus the occasional cat/bird picture, and boost anything I find interesting.
