I'm very excited to say that the first paper from my PhD has just been published: besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/..., providing a step by step guide for using chemical tracers in archival tissues. Then applying these steps to a track a diadromous brown trout.

I'm excited to say that the primary output of my time in the Northern Ireland Assembly with RaISe, looking at the health of marine and freshwater fish stocks in NI has now been published: www.niassembly.gov.uk/globalassets... With a blog also released: www.assemblyresearchmatters.org/2026/04/15/n...

Its been an absolute joy to co-organise and present at NoWPaS 2026. A massive thanks to the sponsors and all the other committee members and best of luck with next years conference.

Enjoyed showing Mick Sharp, lead angler for the #Thames #Fishing Research Experiment the lab and all v excited/grateful to receive a medal for volunteering at the event. First year of many I hope. Hoping to use these samples to assess pollution impacts on #bass

A brilliant conference, and I would highly recommend to any early career salmonid biologists!!!! (I may however be biased by helping to organise it)

It was amazing to attend my first @amfisheriessoc.bsky.social annual meeting, presenting both a talk and poster, many fascinating discussions and talks about metabolism in fish alongside the impacts of temperature and hypoxia! Massive thanks to @thefsbi.bsky.social for sponsoring my travel.

It was brilliant to share some of my research through art at the Nature's Canvas exhibition at the @universityofessex.bsky.social .

It was brilliant to catch up with so many people from #NoWPaS2025 at #FSBI2025

A great time presenting my work on salmonid metabolism across a latitudinal gradient, lots of interesting conversations with everyone after the talk #FSBI2025

Had a great time getting to #FSBI2025 with @otolithgirl.bsky.social and Lucy Smith using a range of #FSBIGreenTravel methods

Loved discussing connections between salmon & humans, evolutionarily, culturally & physiologically, for a podcast being made by @tidelines.bsky.social for the Salmon Run (River Exe, Sept 20th). Amazing interviews w/ Henry Chung, Patrick Schoenmakers, Jen Hoyal Cuthill, Peter Betts & Lucy Smith 🐟

Had a brilliant time presenting my work on closed chamber respirometry at @nowpas.bsky.social 2025, so much fascinating work presented by all the delegates!

Just completed a brilliant course on machine learning with @tscourses.bsky.social, Excited to start using the new data analysis techniques on my data!
