Please donate - proceeds go to Radiotherapy UK. Yesterday marked the start of my 500 mile walking challenge for July and August. Rather aptly, I am heading to Edinburgh ("I would walk 500 miles....") for a meeting. So far, I am on 5 miles... Please sponsor here: www.givengain.com/project/sama...

Trying to be a good role model for kids and be brave when picking up a dead squirrel from the pavement on way to school to out in bin. It was gross!!!! But stayed calm and luckily had gloves with me

Excited by a visit to House of Lords this early morning to talk about radionuclide supply but boy do I wish it wasn’t after a long night at A&E with eldest (all is fine)

Great meeting in Rotterdam around the radiobiology of radionuclide therapies hosted by our European Working Group in this area. Fab new connections and great to present and discuss our recent work. Photos below. Next stop, Lisbon in 2 years' time.

It's been a while as, in all honesty, I have just been in survival mode. Some photos of recent times attached including from the IWRMR meeting on radiobiology of radionuclide therapies, vivas etc. Will post more photos soon...

Always nice to chat to new potential collaborators in science. I have decided life is too short and to prioritise working with people who "I could see myself meeting up with outside of work".

Meant to be writing a research paper that has been sitting on your desk for years, so this is clearly a good time to write a post here 😂 Thought I would share the attached photo of a science experiment at home that is failing. Surely at day 3, the white flower should be blue?!

Lovely to catch up with fellow participants on an arts workshop around radiotherapy at the King's Engaged Researcher Awards with amongst others @lisawhittaker02.bsky.social. So much love in the room!

So pleased to have been asked to create a video for @SN_Oncology with @LisaWhittaker02 and Alex Britton about our Radiation Reveal paper. This was a massive effort across @RadNetCRUKCoL @KingsImaging. Watch it here: cassyni.com/events/SHFGP...

Am stuck with having too much to day which is making me anxious thereby not enabling me to do too much! Horrid cycle. Tips welcome to get out of it - go for a walk and reset the body?! Just do something/anything?

Btw, my serious work is research into injectable radioactive therapies for cancer. My list of things to get done today is sit on 3 appeals panels, have update chats with students and try to finish the review of PhD thesis introduction ... But all I can think about is snow!!

Ok, so, apparently we are mad to cycle to school today - but we did it! So much fun! AND we had time to make a small snowman. Photos of view and snowman below. Now back to serious work....

Just a random Friday reflection. PhD vivas are hard for all - the student ofcourse, but also the supervisor who has been there through the ups and downs and guided the student for all of 4 years. Vivas affect everyone.

Post 1 on Bluesky as have really disliked the other social media app for a while now... Am hoping this space will bring back the supportive and kind atmosphere of posting. Expect from me happy, positive and the realistic aspects of being a scientist, mum and generally in search of internal piece.
