Can’t get over the fantastic view from the labs at the Pears building, UCL Infection&Immunity! visiting @gpollara.bsky.social lab right next to the Heath 😍

A dream coming true: sharing my passion for parasites and CRISPR technology with students @uclmedsci.bsky.social ! Thank you @gpollara.bsky.social for inviting me (and for the shots!) and I want to thank the students for the curious, smart and engaging discussion!

This week I had the pleasure to tutor undergrad students in the wonderful wet lab of Cruciform building @ucl.ac.uk in what it was the former children ward of the hospital: beautiful mosaics of tales at the walls overlooking the main quad. My favourite was little red riding hood!

Two days with the Treeck lab in one the most special places in my heart @moritztreeck.bsky.social

When your bacteria delivery gets extra cute ❤️ @victoriachu.bsky.social

In my quest for an everything-proof marker I found this brilliant Reddit thread where somebody systematically tested several ones with 70%EtOH, water bath and for smudginess 😍 not all heroes wear capes! #lablife www.reddit.com/r/labrats/co...

Inspiring science and dramatic London views at #UKcellmicro2025 . Looking forward to day2!

Our star @victoriachu.bsky.social giving a fantastic #pint25 talk with @nc3rs.bsky.social 🌟 with those numbers that always give me a headache (400 millions infections a year!) and the magic of human urine 🌟

A yummy misspelling!

I was so lucky to have the support of two incredible research institutes, the @crick.ac.uk and the IGC, now part of @gimmfoundation.bsky.social . Ironically, the paper was submitted on 30/09/24, last day of official existence of IGC and my last day in Portugal. What a fantastic journey it was!

Who crossed my path know how much I loved this project,and how involved I was (or am!) with this wonderful and intriguing protein.Thank to @moritztreeck.bsky.social who allowed me to embark on this journey,to my invaluable colleagues (who gifted me this 3Dprinted GRA12😍) and to @dfg.de for fundings!

And that’s how a microbiologist pours plates! 65 in one go 🙌 creation of Victoria from the Rohn lab

In this International Day for women and girls in science I want to acknowledge the inspiring, supportive, smart and strong female scientists I’m surrounded with! Colleagues that become friends, I feel the luckiest on earth and there is so much we can and will do!

Rumors are true! I joined the very welcoming @jennyrohn.bsky.social lab at UCL to dive into 3D organoids, persistent bugs and GAG layer! Exciting times ahead ✨

I just discovered that in Spanish the plant gorse (in Italian: ginestra) is called toxo :)

I want to study pathogen persistence so I’m testing my own in this cold London winter. Yesterday I run my first 10k, temperature perceived 1 C, fear visible in my eyes

Antioxidant gold directly from my bathroom cabinet ✨ I’ll never use face serum without thinking about diarrhoeal pathogens now, thank you @ghostpathogen.bsky.social
