Dr Nikki Dean Marshall @ndeanmarshall.bsky.social · 05/12/2024Got very excited when I saw our paper had been cited for the first time! It was a great paper but as I was reading it I realised my surname had been cited incorrectly 😩 One of the cons of having two surnames in a world of usually having one surname. I have been in touch with the journal to correct!🤞 590
