I am incredibly proud of Matt Schaich, Emily Xu, and Elisa Dallo who presented their work at the Trondheim meeting.

Attending a wonderful DNA repair meeting in Trondheim, Norway. Thanks Barbara van Loon for being a splendid host.

Thanks to Roman and Maurice from LUMICKS for arranging the trip.

Spent a lovely day at Masaryk University

Kamenice 5, 625 00 Brno, wonderful tour of the Biomolecular Interactions and Crystallography Core Facility / CEITEC by Jitka Holková

Brno is a center of innovation, since the days of Mendel.

Spent the last five days in the Czech Republic. Prague us a beautiful city.

Inspiring talks (especially Representstive Summer Lee) at the Standup for Science 2025, Pittsburgh, the home of the Salk polio vaccine.

Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025!

The final Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. The entire page is mostly white as they're in the winter snow. The pair is walking with a sledge, nicely duffled in in scarves, hats, gloves. Calvin delightedly exclaims 'wow, it really snowed las night! Isn't it wonderful?'. Hobbes follows up with 'Everything familiar has disappeared! The world looks brand-new!' -- A new year... a fresh, clean start!' adds Calvin. As they look over the landscape, Hobbes observes 'it's like having a big white sheet of paper to draw on!' -- 'A day full of possibilities!' Calvin affirms. They get ready on their sledge and Calvin tells his friend 'it's a magical world, Hobbes, ol' buddy... let's go exploring!', and the pair sledges off into the wintery landscape.

31 December 1995. Still the perfect goodbye.
