After 10 weeks my internship at the CVR is over, it's pretty amazing that 10 weeks has sort of confirmed wanting to do a PhD (hopefully with the CVR) and has lit a fire under my ass to have as strong a year as possible... yes that has manifested as stationary shopping for fourth year 👀

When you order a trilogy but they all get shipped separately and the last book to arrive is the first in the series… WTF Amazon?

Britain’s favourite butterfly apparently… honestly think that the lavender attracts more pollinators than anything else.

I've just been listening to playlists by decade recently, today I went with the 2010's, and its weird because its not long enough ago to be nostalgic, so its just cheesy... and considering I was listening to basically non-stop abba the other day thats saying something.

Additionally we explicitly explored the impact of a large scale change in behaviour (COVID-19 restrictions) on invasive meningococcal disease dynamics, exploring the pre-, during- and post-COVID eras. A pleasure to work on this study! Thank you to all involved! #EpiSky #IDSky #MicroSky #MedSky 🧪
