Really happy to share that I was the runner up during the Southampton #3MT Final! It was a pleasure to share a bit of my ongoing research on deep-sea minerals I’ve been doing at @OceanEarthUoS and @NOCnews.

Come and work with us @NOCnews - it’s great here! We’re recruiting a PERMANENT biogeochemist to work on projects including hydrothermal records in sediments (including on a @NERCscience funded project in Santorini), coastal pollutants and organic carbon. careers.noc.ac.uk/vacancy/resear…

(radiocarbon) Dating on Valentine’s Day! Spent a few days at @SUERC1 NEIF Radiocarbon Laboratory playing around with taps, glasswares and liquid nitrogen. Amazed to see all these isotope labs and facilities including the AMS! #PhD #radiocarbon #isotopes

Split. Scan. Subsample. Repeat. Excited to see what my second set of @ProjectUltra22 sediment cores for my PhD will uncover. As always, massive thanks to @BOSCORF_NOC for their support and hard work on processing these precious cores since last week! #PhD #sediments #hydrothermal

[1/8]🗺️We think you’ll agree, the #ocean is one of the most mysterious places on #Earth. For centuries, humans have explored the deep waters in search of the unknown. In the Sea Mapping Through the Ages series, we’re journeying through the history of #seabed exploration.

A big thank you to all instructors involved in delivering our advanced core scanning techniques course last week, including @FliesInLakes, @soutterbidite for the sessions on #rprogramming and #pythonprogramming and Monica Handley from @BODC @NOC_news on #DataManagement.

Registration and abstract submission now open for the @brit_seds Annual Meeting at @NOCnews Southampton - £90 for students, £150 for non students including icebreaker, conference, and Gala Dinner. Get your abstracts in now! noc-events.co.uk/61st-british-s…

Productive sediment core processing at @BOSCORF_NOC this week! Can’t wait to “hear” what these sediments have to tell! #sediments #PhD

Some of the spectacular cores recovered for @ProjectUltra22 during Cruise #JC224 in the cold store ready for nondestructive analyses. Let the science begin!

Look at that sediment core! Guess who’s the happiest scientist on board? #science #sediments @ProjectUltra22
