I’ve been doing something very much not work related today! I’m in a band and we’ve started recording our new album! Day 1: recorded 3/4 of the parts for a song, and it sounds brilliant! The next few days are going to be great! #GallahersGreen #NotJustAScientist #VoltalabStudios

Well, this is exciting. A 5 year postdoc position in my lab. Do ion channels appeal to you? What about calcium? This is going to be such a fun project!👇
