More amazing posters presented by our researchers @zahraaalbaqsami.bsky.social and Rana at #MicroEvo25!

I was browsing through my sketchbook and came across my sketches for @mermanchester.bsky.social’s logo from three years ago, haha! I was thrilled when the group liked my designs and chose the one on the right, 😊.

It was great opportunity to share some of my PhD work in #Thermophiles2025 in Münster Germany. I got the chance to meet amazing kind hearted scientists 💕 Big thanks to the organizers for giving me this chance 🙏🏼

MERMan seminars are back! Last week, @zahraaalbaqsami.bsky.social presented her #Thermophiles2025 talk which generated a lot of buzz & Qs from the group!
