First attempt at running the #MinION to characterise the lumpfish #microbiome. Fingers crossed for some exciting results 🧬 🐟 (Thanks for the help Chantelle Hooper)

Great few days University of Exeter for Cefas student day. Lots of interesting talks and posters 🐟🦞👩🏻‍🔬

Very happy to have received a travel award from #EAFP to attend Eafp2019 in Porto in September. Looking forward to presenting my research on #lumpfish 🐟🧫👩🏻‍🔬

Thanks Loch Duart Salmon for spending the last few days with me and Dr Lauren Stewart showing us how #salmon farming works and all the new innovations including #cleanerfish being used to improve the industry.

Excited to be presenting my poster on the #lumpfish #microbiome today at #ASMMicrobe2019

Very I interesting rapid fire talk by Evangelos Mourkas using #genomic approaches to understand #campylobacter evolution in #cattle 🧫 🐄 #ASMMicrobe2019

And now Ben Pascoe is going to talk about Campylobacter populations from all over the world 🌍 Sheppard Lab #ASMMicrobe2019

@Sion_Bayliss talking about niche associated genes at #Asmmicrobe Sheppard Lab

Astonishing - but heartening - to learn that advanced medical procedures like keyhole surgery are now being widely used in #aquaculture, including - for the first time, by a pioneering vet Swansea University - in #lumpfish production thefishsite.com/articles/how-k… #wales

If you fish for #wrasse recreationally on the south coast, we want to know!🎣Please complete this survey surveymonkey.co.uk/r/wrasseangling so we can find out how important #wrasse #angling is, and how it overlaps with the commercial fishery. Plus you can #win a £50 voucher! Please RT! 🐟🎣

'Cefas is conducting a pioneering study to investigate the biology and develop novel treatment methods for whitespot/Ich. Can anyone help us locate fish with whitespot in the UK? #aquarium #pathogens #fish #disease #whitespot #fishpathology #ich #parasites #AquaticHealth

Set up for my first international poster presentation at Eafp2019. Come see our work on #AGD during the poster session today at 15.15! SWBio DTP Cefas Exeter Biosciences

@lobstergutmicro gives his final conference talk before submitting on sea-based container culture of European lobster Eafp2019

Very interesting day at #SeafishACIG meeting in London. So many innovative UK #aquaculture businesses working hard to break into new markets and develop new technologies. Thanks Aquaculture Research Collaborative Hub UK for providing me with a travel grant to attend.

Great opportunity to be involved in this workshop, thanks for the invite Cefas @DAFF_ZA

Here’s the second post in our series explaining the #Cefasscience behind our photos. We carry out research to understand the role of disease in wild and farmed aquatic host populations to improve health outcomes 🐟🧫 📸: Lyndsay Christie Defra UK #research #health #aquatic

Great article by my supervisor explaining more about the new coronavirus variants 🦠

PhD viva passed with no corrections 🥳 thanks to my examiners Martin Llewellyn Sheppard Lab for a great discussion and many interesting ideas and to my supervisors Ed Feil David Verner-Jeffreys for all your advice and support over the last 4 years.

The WCTP is providing the vital information we need to understand how our smolts navigate our coastal waters. With this information, we can help shape impactful solutions that can inform & guide policy & crucially, better protect our iconic species. New🎥bit.ly/3Jkc9Kx
