Looking forward to presenting some work at the Winter Crystallography Meeting this morning! Hope everyone is excited to learn about some aqueous structure (and not disappointed at the lack of crystals...)

Congratulations - excellent news!
So now that everything is signed and official, I'm excited to announce that I'll be joining @xpdfdls at @DiamondLightSou in September as a beamline scientist! Can't wait to get stuck into a bit more X-ray scattering & collaborate on some exciting projects!
