I love working @aberdlsagb.bsky.social Specifically, colleagues I have the pleasure of working with! My fellow biochemist Prof. Dave Whitworth knocked up the amazing fridge magnets and the cookie jar was at my door courtesy of Dr Laura Lyons! Both clearly know me well #Fabersytwyth #StarWarsNerd
Great opportunity at the Wales Veterinary Science Centre here in #Faberystwyth if you are interested in disease biology. Temporary PM assistant position available.

Person in a lecture theatre holding up a small piece of kong that the dog will be searching for. The border collie is focused on her rewards sat on the desk in front of her.
Cotton came to work to demonstrate skills taught by Eszter Monostori on her #OneZoo PhD project - teaching dogs to locate the intermediate hosts of parasites. She loved meeting our students, inspiring the next generation of scientists.
