Last week, I was in Firenze, Italy to attend and present at Evoluzione, the SIBE Congress! I had a great time meeting a broader community of evolutionary biologists and learning about the research scene in a new country. Also enjoyed meeting some of the og Galapagos herp researchers in person 🐢

I'm very grateful to have gotten the opportunity to present part of my PhD research at the European ConsGen Meeting. This was my first major talk (hopefully of many) discussing Tortoises and I'm so thankful to everyone involved, especially @eljensen.bsky.social 🐢 @consgenmeeting2026.bsky.social

My first European Conservation Genetics Meeting! What an honor to share a space with some of the icons in the field and learn from their experience and expertise. Also very cool to meet many other ECRs and talk about research, policy, and of course, biodiversity! @consgenmeeting2026.bsky.social

Looking back on last week’s #Iapetus DTP #StudentConference at St Andrews—what a fantastic experience! Great conversations, inspiring research, and a brilliant atmosphere throughout. Here’s to doing it all again next year in a new setting!

It's always so fun to talk about tortoises but I'm even happier that I was able to bring cool genetics to a broader group of researchers!!

Random bunch of photos from last Saturday's walk up from Rothbury to Dove Crag. Lots of fun wildlife, great company, and most surprising of all - good weather !

A little photodump from walks around Northumberland during @iapetusdtp.bsky.social residential at The Sill! Missed a few old faces but enjoyed meeting some new ones :)
