@beamsontoast I was feeling fairly smug when I started with my large grant and paper accepted yesterday! Just to tick the little box saying "1" and realising the drop down goes above 20!

Gotta love completing your annual grant reporting form for your funding body. Even if you've had a good year! "In the last 12 months... How many medals have you been awarded, how many spin-out companies have come from your work, how many keynote talks have you given?" 😳

[Ruth Thompson @Thompsonlab1]

Sharing this everywhere coz I'm just so bloody proud! My amazing 6 year old donated 12 inches of her beautiful hair and raised over £200 for the #littleprincesstrust
