Although, I got back last week, I am still daydreaming I am in BDA doing rad science w/ amazing scientists in a gorgeous location. I'm so thankful to @BIOSstation and the R/V AE for figuring out how to make the cruise & my stay possible during COVID times. Until next time! 🌊🦠💙

Meet Kolga! This cherry-shape is the first cultured siphovirus of SAR11 and the subject of my PhD! 🍒 🦠
Thanks @HolgerBeechwood for isolating such a cute little virus. Be sure to check out the paper on the cultivation: nature.com/articles/s4139…

I’ve finished my first knitting project during my PhD, a hat for my housemate! Knitting is one of my favourite way to wind down after a busy day in the lab 🧶

Hey @AcademicChatter, I am thinking about switching to an electronic lab book as I am trying to go zero waste! Does anyone have any tips or suggestions?

I’m a bit late in posting this... but I’m doing a PhD! I’m going to continue my adventure in the U.K. with @bentemperton and @LabTemperton! I’m beyond excited for what the future has to hold and what secrets we can unlock of viral infections in genome minimalists! 🦠 🌊 💙✨

My partner is in Cardiff (~100miles) so we had to celebrate Valentine’s Day apart, but to make up for it they sent me literally 1kg of cheese... best present ever 🧀😍
