Proud to have my first PhD chapter published in Marine Ecology Progress Series! Here we look at uncovering some of the mystery behind #aminoacid trophic discrimination factors in nitrogen #stableisotopes from a connected shelf sea #foodweb

What a journey! Yesterday I passed my PhD viva with minor corrections. Couldn't be more happy and proud. Thank you to everyone who supported me through this mammoth effort!
Part of my PhD is characterising the Northwest Atlantic food web using stable isotopes. Check out this Pandalus inside a small Atlantic cod! I’m in the process of blending these guys to compare isotope values of the muscle sample vs. the entire homogenised animal.
This was definitely one of the most gruelling 5 1/2 hours on a bike I’ve had, what with the cold, tiredness and road closures. Still sad to put her away for 6 months though!
