It was a privilege to supervise Harry with Natasha Rogers and Jean Yang through his PhD, and I'm pumped that he commenced a postdoc with us today, where he will soon be supporting the #DigitalPathology arm of our Centre for Research Excellence: Transplantation of Organs for Life.

Winning ECR awards in both basic and clinical science is a rare achievement, and it reflects the real breadth of Harry's work.

I'm feeling pretty excited to have a month off over xmas relaxing at the beach. I just realised this morning that that month off starts in two weeks! There is no way I'm going to be able to leave my laptop at home this year :(

Pro-tip for anyone that attended COMBINE yesterday... You can make your name tag double-sided by slotting your COMBINE name tag into the ABACBS name tag. Saves the awkward flick of the name tag when you introduce yourself to someone new! #abacbs23 #abacbs2023

Bioinformatics wisdom of the day: When there are too many methods for the same task, you know that none of them is very good.
