UKFN weekly round-up 18/5/18

If you would like to circulate a brief message to the UKFN mailing list ahead of the monthly newsletter, you can send it to info@fluids.ac.uk by Friday noon of each week and it will be circulated in the weekly round-up later that day. All messages that are still time-relevant will be repeated in the monthly newsletter.
