Well, after a lifetime dreaming about it, I finally saw the northern lights. It was even more incredible than I imagined. Luke Meredith and I teamed up to take the photos which wasn’t easy as we spent most of our time just watching the show!

I had a fantastic short break to Egypt to see the pyramids and to the Valley of the Kings in Luxor recently. It was such a beautiful country with incredibly friendly people!

Very nice commentary on our preprint describing SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the Phoenix Park deer. A great collaboration between UCD School of Veterinary Medicine Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc UCD Conway Institute CEPHR_UCD and of course the brilliant Lab of Wildlife Ecology & Behaviour 🦌

Just back from the Serengeti where I went to see the great wildebeest migration. Unbelievably, I saw not one, but two huge groups of wildebeest cross the Mara river.

Kicking off day 2 at the annual conference of the Irish division of the Microbiology Society with an insightful opening lecture by Dr Nicola Fletcher Nicola Fletcher on HEV. A fantastic start on viruses #MicrobioIrish23 #HEV

Thanks Amy Fitzpatrick for organising this morning’s VirusHunters programme at University College Dublin. It was a lot of fun and the students were amazing! UCD School of Veterinary Medicine UCD Conway Institute

We're thrilled to celebrate Nicola Fletcher and her collaborators at Uni Heidelberg & Diamond Light Source for securing an European Research Council (ERC) Synergy Grant! The award reflects their dedication and incredible expertise. We can't wait to see what NanoX achieves! 🎉✨ #ERCSyG #NanoX

Ah thanks Hannah! I couldn’t have done it without the amazing team I work with and of course, Noodle the Poodle 🐩. Champagne in falcon tubes was a must 😂🥂

Incredibly excited to share that part of my PhD has now been published in Scientific Reports! 🤩 A huge thank you to our amazing collaborators, and a special thanks to my supervisor Dr. Nicola Fletcher (@nerdynic) for all the support. Go and have a nosey: rdcu.be/ecbQM 👀

It’s been so exciting working with you for the past four years Hannah! What a brilliant result - passing your viva and getting your paper published in the space of two days. Congratulations!!!

Our ERC Synergy project will begin on 1st June, so we took the opportunity to meet up at the Diamond Synchrotron today and meet the scientists working at the soft x-ray microscope at Beamline 24. Can’t wait to get started! European Research Council (ERC) University College Dublin UCD Research UCD Conway Institute

We have a vacancy for a PhD student to join our ERC Project NanoX this September, working on soft x-ray microscopy to understand hepatitis E virus at UCD School of Veterinary Medicine and UCD Conway Institute. Please see ucd.ie/graduatestudie… for details! UCD Research

A wet but fantastic day tagging and collecting behavioural data from the newborn fawns at the Phoenix Park! Thank you to the team at Lab of Wildlife Ecology & Behaviour for allowing us to help out! Sch. Biol. & Env. Sc UCD School of Veterinary Medicine

We have a vacancy for a part time PhD studentship, with an opportunity to combine a part time Teaching Assistant role at University College Dublin UCD School of Veterinary Medicine. See [findaphd.com/phds/project/p…) and the Teaching Assistant at [ucd.ie/workatucd/jobs/](ucd.ie/workatucd/jobs/), vacancy 018929.
