Also started a new chapter on the same day with @_tomleah surrounded with close friends and family who's been with us from day 1 🌸💐🌼🪷🥰 !
Credits to Liam Law for the superb photography 📸
Another long chapter finally over 🌸! #PhDone
So happy to see many people I know graduate alongside ✨ it's been a tough and tiring rollercoaster ride 🎢 HUGE thank you to my husband @_tomleah , family, friends and role models 🥰

Did something a little bit different with my design this time for a 'Sexy Science' article and love the complementary layout done by the @eusci team! 😁😍 #scicomm
Thank you everyone for the wishes 🥺💐🪻❤️
Couldn't have done it without the little things like bantering in the corridor, @InstMolPlantSci community events, cake clubs, teaching, sharing reagents and many more 🍰 they help distract phd woes on bad days and keeps me going 🔥
#phdone 19.03.24 ✅ HUGE thank you to my family, partner @_tomleah, cat who didn’t approve of my printed thesis, examiners, thesis committee, @molnar_lab, everyone in @InstMolPlantSci @DarwinTrustOfEd @SBSatEd BTO who supported me throughout a very challenging 4.5 years 🥂🙏🏻🎉🙌🏻

BIG congratulations @TabassumNadra 🔥❤️! You've been through SO much ups and downs throughout the 4 years but kept positive nevertheless. Super excited for you to be reunited with your partner+daughter back home now that you're #PhDONE! 🥳🥳 all the best to your future endeavours

Just because someone gives you advice does not mean you have to take it. This is why it's SO incredibly valuable to have multiple mentors. n = 1 opinion is often insufficient to get the feedback you need to make big decisions. Thankful for my mentoring team 💚
Highly recommend working with Liz!!! This research project is plant biotechnology at its best 🍀🔥
@plantae_org @ASPB

Our research boosts sesquiterpenoid production 25x from algae, offering a sustainable alternative. Combining genetic engineering & green bioprocess, we’re reshaping chemical production, conserving endangered species & pioneering new methods in biotech. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…
Merry Christmas to all 🎄⭐️🎁looking forward to the next one because I’ll be done with this PhD misery 🔥 @tomleahneuro

This week, we welcome back the UK to the Horizon family. A win-win for global scientific progress.
Starting from 1 January 2024, UK researchers will be able to participate in @HorizonEU, the EU’s research and innovation programme.
More info ↓
I've contributed so much to the UK/@EdinburghUni/@UniOfYork community through volunteering work over 8 years of my life while sacrificing time away from my own family, to be STILL treated like we're here to 'steal jobs'. Absolutely disgusted and disappointed. What a sad day.
Isn't the discount the point of recruiting people for shortage occupations............?

Just another emerging #lateralroot of #cucumber
Grey channel - stained cell walls. Red nuclei - auxin maximum (DR5).
A few orange nuclei (near the initial cells of LR) - green nuclei expressing promoter-reporter fusion (merged with DR5).

The utter meanness and shame of a nation saying we want a careworker to come and look after our elderly incontinent parents, but we won't let them bring their kids to live with them.

UK gov really out there saying postdocs are not allowed here 🫠

PhDone Dr @yuhuoyh 🥳🤩💐!!!
It makes me so happy to see each PhD colleague cross the finishing line. Hopefully my turn soon next summer! 🤞🏻
