Congratulations to Lauren Davies, the lab's first PhD student, who defended her thesis with flying colours yesterday! Special thanks to Lauren's examiners @eileenparkes.bsky.social and @mcclellandlab.bsky.social! Lauren will stay for a few months to finalise a manuscript - so watch this space!

For everyone interested in art, my incredibly talented girlfriend Lara is auctioning one of her paintings to support @freedomfromtorture.bsky.social. The current bid is a bargain for her art, so snatch it up, and still get an incredibly good deal!

Fantastic joint lab meeting day with @eileenparkes.bsky.social and Ben O'Leary plus our groups. Lots of cool science and discussions! And that fancy dinner at Lincoln College!
