All good things come to an end, but it has been a blast.
I had the pleasure yesterday in passing over the Presidency of the @RoyalMicroSoc to Rik Drummond-Brydson and I look forward to supporting Rik as VP and naturally the RMS as a whole.
Please read about the past 3 years -

Two of the big names in Flow Cytometry Derek Davies and Andreas Spittler
Andreas reflects on wanting to become a teacher before university
Derek on how moving into a core facility opened the door to a whole career
They also discuss how flow has changed over the decades
The importance of supporting and training other scientists
AND the challenge of stepping back from work that has shaped so much of their lives
Key take home: find your niche, put your heart into it, and follow it with commitment

Charlotte Christie Petersen, Désirée Kunkel, and Marjolijn Hameetman are the stars of #FlowStars.
They about the European Flow Core Meeting: a virtual event created to bring flow cytometry core facility staff together across countries, career stages, and facility sizes.
Reflect on why the meeting matters, from helping people share hard-won experience to giving core facility staff a stronger sense of community and recognition.
Plus a few personal stories: unexpected hobbies, cytometer mishaps, and how flow cytometry shaped not just a career, but a life.

If you are a flow cytometrist, then you must know Jo & Ray Lannigan, but how well??? Stream #FlowStars in an really entertaining, lighthearted episode.
From risks ro set-backs, from being in the Navy, or wanting to be a medic, their journey to being flow stars is amazing.
