Last week I had the pleasure of working for the first time ever on B-07 at @diamondlightsource.bsky.social with Josh, who I did my UG and PhD with at Liverpool. Even found a MChem graduation photo of us. Getting to collaborate with friends is amazing ❤️

23% of first-generation students said they felt like impostors, compared to just 2% of non-first-generation students. They were less likely to be invited to summer lab placements and less likely to report having family support.
