My mini-haul from the second-hand bookshop at the Weald and Downland Living Museum, Sussex. Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of Björk and trying to improve my Gaeilge, so I thought this was an apt selection 📚💙

Had a very long day in the lab last week test-running a new RT-qPCR. On the bright side, when I finally got out I was greeted by a startlingly bright #Venus, close to its full elongation 🔭🧪
