A big thank you to all speakers and tutors of the CSSB & EMBL Workshop! And a special thank you to the fantastic cohort of participants who came to Hamburg. Great discussions and a joy to share the excitement for science!

This‼️ Limited-term contracts are one of the strangest developments in academia, with significant impacts on personal lives.

Fantastic to be in the classroom (and later at the beamline) discussing the many benefits of incorporating SAXS into integrative modeling. Day 5 of #EMBOStructBio here in Hamburg, and the students are still very motivated!

Class room filled with 20+ smiling students.

Great to see @ebi.embl.org (the organisation I am Director of, part of @embl.org) on this site “corporately” +notice the “correct” domain name (and for EMBL watchers, note is .embl.org not .ac.uk - the latter a hangover from academic network joining rules in the 1990s). Stay tuned to both for more

little red bump = large portion of happiness as the X-ray re-enters our orbit ... however, that will mean less time to explore the blue skies.

Thanks @jeffkinney.bsky.social, now my kids can keep busy reading #HotMess and #SoEinSchlamassel , while I get to explore this new sky! #BlueSkyMoment #ParentWin

...realizing that switching to blue skies is as easy as having AI create a matching picture to announce to your Twitter friends—only to realize there’s no one left to see the announcement. #All_gone

Decided to change my obsession with gathering political updates every few seconds and have volunteered to take care of kid#3's class photo shoot. Realizing too late that it involves hosting all the 9yo's at my home. New kind of madness expected.
