Looking back on last week’s #Iapetus DTP #StudentConference at St Andrews—what a fantastic experience! Great conversations, inspiring research, and a brilliant atmosphere throughout. Here’s to doing it all again next year in a new setting!
It's always so fun to talk about tortoises but I'm even happier that I was able to bring cool genetics to a broader group of researchers!!
Wrapping up with the last set of #StudentConference talks - ending on a high! #Iapetus
Had an amazing couple of days at St. Andrews for the @iapetusdtp.bsky.social conference, chatting with folks and hearing about the cool range of work everyone does!
If there's one thing about me, it's that if there's a Natural History Museum, I'll be going there @ Oxford University Museum of Natural History
Random bunch of photos from last Saturday's walk up from Rothbury to Dove Crag. Lots of fun wildlife, great company, and most surprising of all - good weather !
Don't miss this fantastic exhibition at Great North Museum: Hancock! Picture This: Someone Like Me transforms Newcastle University research into illustrated artworks, encouraging visitors to feel curious about research and to see themselves as part of it too. Read more >> bit.ly/4t0t8YN
