BOYCOTT EUROVISION With photo of a destroyed car and buildings in Gaza Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

As Israel have been allowed to compete in Eurovision 2026, the UK must follow in the footsteps of Ireland, Spain, Slovenia and the Netherlands and boycott the competition.

The world's largest live music event cannot be used to whitewash Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

If you don't turn graduation into an iconic photoshoot then what's the point in doing 4 years of a PhD?

Please, this bit you're doing about "moving back to Scotland" has gone too far now...

I'm nothing if not consistent

2018 -> 2025

Both bright yellow so a tough call but I didn't spend a full 24 hours sonicating to not present those data at every opportunity I get 😂

My first poster was as an undergraduate lucky enough to get a Harry Smith summer studentship with funding to attend the conference, next was as a PhD student between covid and lockdowns and this year I'm back as a PostDoc with links to our preprint and even more to say about formicamycins! 🦠🔬👩🏻‍🔬

The unintentional conference poster jumper is back for #Microbio25. It started out as a complete accident but due to popular demand in the lab it will now become a @microbiologysociety.org tradition for poster presentations. Always a great conference with brilliant science and friendly faces

Today we updated streptomyces.org.uk/strepstrains... with lists of useful Streptomyces strains and plasmids we have @johninnescentre.bsky.social and details of how to request them.

My talking points in recent interviews, please use as you see fit:
1.Every $1 in NIH funding returns ~$2.50 to the economy.
2.Every $1B in cuts from NIH extramural = 7500 lost employees, just in science.
3.These don't include priceless improvements in health.
1/x

So pleased to see this preprint out, hopefully coming to a journal near you soon...

Get yourself friends who MAKE you a book advent calendar where you get to unwrap another couple of chapters to read each day 🎄📚🎅

Can we buy the pin badges separately if they're all gone? My work lanyard is desperately lacking in a noodlococcus badge as part of the collection

And we’ve got a surprise this year…

You’ve heard of Noodlococcus, now meet NoodloSOCKus 🧦🦠🍜

We’ve loved designing these high-quality crew socks. ContamSocks are now available at ⤵️

Hi bluesky! I'm Katie a post doc in @matthutchings.bsky.social lab at the John Innes Centre. I currently work on regulation of natural products from Streptomyces, with a focus on two-component systems. Also a lover of cats, climbing and the outdoors, so hoping to build things up over here #SciSky
