An exhilarating day exploring #Iceland volcanic landscape - geysers, waterfalls and craters with Dr Lauren Davis - ready for #iclaf2022

Found the best companion for some work in Reykjavik… even better than Louise Crowley … also watched by about 100 flint stones 😂

Looking forward to the first full day of #ICLAF2022 today! Thanks to Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis for supporting my attendance. Please come and check out my poster in the cell biology area ✨

Great to catch up and meet some new people! (THEY WERE TWO FOR ONE 😂😂)

Thanks for having me #MOIS22! And thank you to the organising cohort, not an easy task made to look effortless! 🤩

Final year PhD students

A week ago I passed my viva- I’ve just about recovered! Thank you so much to my examiners for such a rewarding experience and to all my work pals for being there to celebrate 🥳

Long time to tweet but: 1. PhD corrections were accepted! Hoping to publish some of my data soon 2. Moved from Birmingham to Vancouver 3. Started a postdoc with UBC and STEMCELL in September focussing on cystic fibrosis It's been very hectic but equally exciting! So far so good!
