I am honoured to receive the Post Graduate Teaching Award at the Educational Excellence Awards held at University of Birmingham. I feel privileged to be able to help students on their journey into science. Thank you to all who nominated me and all who put on a wonderful event.

I often talk about how important I think it is to end Reimbursement culture and it’s obvious that some people don’t understand how transformative that could be in graduate education and retention of UR individuals. So, let’s talk: (1/n)

As a #mistletoe scientist, it'd be wrong NOT to share some fun facts about my study species at this time of year... Welcome to my merry mistletoe advent calendar!🌱🎄❄️ (1/26)

Today a student told the lead academic I was helpful and a great demonstrator. I feel validated, I've found my calling in life, my December is made, I can die happy etc etc

It's been a wonderful 2 days filled with talks and poster sessions. Emerging model organisms are such a treasure trove of new and interesting techniques, propelling science forwards and embracing new technologies. Thank you to everyone involved! 📸 @moodytomato #EMBOtranscaleBio

The first day of the #EMBOtranscaleBio workshop was filled with amazing talks from such a range of exotic model organisms! The beauty of a sea slug is going to stick with me for sure. And of course here's @moodytomato and myself representing the mosses and ferns 🌿

If applicants with 2 co-authored papers aren’t making it to the top 10 of a PhD applicant list, I’d wager that those in the top 10 are bringing a good deal of privilege, connections, and opportunities. I'm really not sure that 'passion' is doing any of the heavy lifting here.

My jaws keep dropping as I go through 70 PhD applicant files. People w/ 2 coauthored papers & an interesting solo writing sample don’t even make it to the top 10 in my pile. The level of knowledge, research experience & passion these kids bring to the table is just remarkable! 🤩

Thank you @worcester_uni for the great opportunity to talk with the 2nd year Bioscience students (and cheekily the 3rd year biochemists - sorry @ColseyColes) about post grad life today!
