2/3 While there, we met a tiny new arrival: a 170g hoglet. One of the vet nurses dubbed her Pee-wee (after the little box she came in—too cute!).
She’s now cozy and happily nibbling diluted puppy mousse while we wait for the all-important poop sample to check for internal parasites. 🩺✨

Today I swapped my “day job” for a rescue run—taking Troy and Thyme from Hamble Hedgehogs Rescue Reg.Charity No: 1185442 to Whiteley Village Vets for their check-ups.
Want to help Pee-wee get back on her paws? See post 3/3

#Plastic is everywhere in our daily lives but #recycling it is still really difficult and energy-intensive. Our latest study looks at how we can make that process greener and more efficient.

A study revealed that microplastics significantly impede photosynthesis in both terrestrial plants and marine algae, leading to an estimated 12% reduction in staple crops and a 7% decline in marine algae productivity.

This week I have the pleasure of training Fernanda Lopes de Figueiredo and a fellow MRes student on the Eppendorf BioFlo 120.
We're fermenting 5 L E. coli for protein expression 😀

I have all 6 Applikon bioreactors on. 3x 250 mL enzymatic plastic digestion. 3x 1 L E. coli protein expression
We're getting another 3x 250 mL bioreactors this month, too!
Costas is finishing up training on the water systems.
