Great experience at #VMxM @diamondlightsource.bsky.social today. Going back with data on 3 out of 4 targets and another trip to check on more promising crystals so very happy users! Thank you @adamcrawshaw.bsky.social and everyone at the beamline!

Got "About Time" by @alomshaha.bsky.social and Rebecca Struthers for my inquisitive and time-curious little man, who turns 8 (!!!) today. Can't wait for us to discover it together!

And to brag about knowing Alom before he was super famous 😁

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?

Think I'd be ok. Can't think of a better option, actually ;)

Thank you to all participants for making the 2nd #3CdF such a fantastic event! See you next year for the next one! #microsky 🧪 #Cdiff
