Such a nice change of pace to be spending time here visiting Guadalupe Sabio’s lab! Also, such a fun place to do some experiments on my birthday before heading into the city for dinner with friends!

Waiting for the flight to @iuis-online.bsky.social Congress in Vienna, with @juanquintana.bsky.social for a week full of immunology and strudel! Glad that my talk is at the start of the week so I can then kick back and enjoy all the cool science!

Haha, that’s so cute. My mum in law keeps sending me photos of Alma, our dog, which helps a lot. She’s so beautiful ❤️

Well, this would have made a pretty #fluorescencefriday image, but it actually didn’t work 😂 just lots of non-specific binding. But hey, we still got pretty, colourful pictures!

This past week has been so hard, saying goodbye to our sweet boy, Igor, but we also realised that we have a lot of love to give to another doggy. So on Sunday we’ll be welcoming Alma to our home ❤️❤️❤️

Incredible work from Theodore Alexandrov & his team, developing 13C-SpaceM, a new method to perform metabolic tracing at the single cell level. This is so cool!

After 10 years together (15 for Juan, who got Igor as a 4 month old puppy) it feels like there’s a massive hole in our home. Wish I could wave a wand and bring him back to us
