One of my favorite days of the year is the group photo day. Here's this year's photo, with two of my students perfectly (!) blended in from the last year's picture.
As I always say, I feel extremely fortunate and privileged to be working with such dedicated and nice scientists. 😀

We are one of the teams who secured an ARC Discovery Project grant funding (equivalent of NSF in the US)! 😃🎉🎆
Thanks so much to my team members Haibo Yu, Nikolas Johnston and Martina Sanderson-Smith for their hard work.
I feel for the 9/10 applications not funded. 🙁 We need more science funding!

I attended the Australian Cell Cycle, DNA Repair and Telomere Meeting for the first time, and now I wish I could have attended it earlier.
Thanks much to the organisers and especially to @genomestability.bsky.social for putting such a nice meeting together.
I am looking forward to the future ones!

One of my favorite times of the year: our annual research group photo!
It is Thanksgiving in the US and it's customery to say what one is thankful for:
I am thankful for my #PhD (HDR) students, a group of dedicated young scientists who carry out fantastic research, working in harmony. 🧿😊
