Spending a couple of days at the @wellcometrust.bsky.social headquarters in London to support a wonderful initiative empowering under-represented groups in science. And how fitting that they have a Mendel room in the building! 🌱

If you are in ☀️ Ghent at #ICAR2025, drop by my poster (#123) today from 5.30 to 7pm!
Come say hi, stay for a plasmodensta and ER quality control story 🌱 Drop me a line if you want to catch up at a different time 🙂 Especially keen to chat with ERQC/ERAD experts (looking for collaborators!)

Managed to include multiple Star Wars ⭐❕ references in the last 🌿 @instmolplantsci.bsky.social PS lecture of the term... If Luke Skywalker were a plant cell, would he be destined to join the dark side of the force like his father? A matter of lineage vs inductive signalling... #PlantSciEd

Shopping for this afternoon’s practical on fruit anatomy 🍓🍊🍏🫘 the many hats a PS lecturer wears… #PlantSciEd (@sainsburys.bsky.social if you want to sponsor us next year that would save me from hunting for yellow discounted labels 😜)

With a slight delay due to the weekend, I wanted to celebrate the amazing 👩‍🔬 mentors I’ve had in my 🌱 career (Kirsten Knox, Ottoline Leyser, @emmanuellebayer.bsky.social and @julie-gray.bsky.social) plus all the amazing 👩‍🔬 colleagues and friends encountered along the way! 🎉

#PlantSciEd Lots of energy in the room! A stimulating workshop on challenges and opportunities in PS education. Many fantastic suggestions and ideas that will hopefully converge in a manifesto output!

An early 🎄 present: a kind nomination for the EUSA @edinburgh-uni.bsky.social EUSA Teacher of Year award. It's so heartwarming when students go the extra mile to recognise teaching efforts! Glad they enjoyed my lectures in our Genetics & Evolution course! 🎉
