When at a Faraday Discussion at the @rsc.org venue, Burlington House, London, it's always good to meet up with the main man Faraday himself, albeit in statue form. Thanks to @faradaydiscussions.rsc.org Editor Michael Rowan for posing with me at #FD_Lignin last week.

Had a fantastic time in Glasgow for @faradaydiscussions.rsc.org on supramolecular gels, great to meet so many leaders in the field. Grateful to the organisers for the chance to present my work and to W.I.S.C. for the 1st Gen Travel Grant that made it possible!

Really enjoyed the Faraday Discussions on asymmetric membranes - had to leave before the end - but my key message is - folks don’t forget about the proteins in your models! They make up 50% of the mass of some plasma membranes! They are not insignificant
