A career highlight for me today @OxfordChemistry. Thank you @francesarnold for your inspiring words on directed evolution, future and truth in science!

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

So pleased to share this, my favourite thesis chapter in its final form at last - fun with molecularly imprinted organic electronics! Thank you so much @nielsenlab_qmul @shofarulwustoni @InalSahika @achilleas_savva @GittiFreyGroup for a fantastic collab!🧪

[Christian Nielsen @nielsenlab_qmul]

Very pleased to see this out! Started as an idea w. @InalSahika many years ago, took the hard work of @kousseva and @shofarulwustoni to realise and excellent support from @GittiFreyGroup @achilleas_savva to finalise. @QMULSPCS @QMULSciEng

@jubileej8 @nielsenlab_qmul @Chemistry_QMUL Thank you Jessica really appreciate your kind words 😊😊 I will certainly be staying in touch!

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

First day ➡️ last day in the labs at QMUL (2017/2022). Huge thank you to the legendary @nielsenlab_qmul and everyone in @Chemistry_QMUL for an amazing 5 years! On to new adventures ✨👩🏻‍🔬

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@stoichkodd @nielsenlab_qmul @Chemistry_QMUL Thanks! 😊

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@ndchiappini @NaOHBartfield Came here to suggest this one as well - we routinely send it to all new members in our lab, really useful intro and guide to echem 👍

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

What a team 🤩

What a journey it has been to get here! So proud to share this moment with my brilliant pal @cm_pearce 🤩👩🏻‍🎓👨🏻‍🎓🎉 #QMULGrad #PhDone

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@Sci_Hans @tblumens @ThePrischiGroup Yesssss! Congrats Dr!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@arseniyadis @FrichardChem @EliasSelmi @SynCat_Bham @LloydJonesLab @Chemistry_QMUL @QMUL Woohoo!! Congratulations Dr @FrichardChem!! 🥳🍾

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@Sci_Hans @biouea @NRPBIODTP Congrats Hans!! Hope you are celebrating in style! 🥳

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@michaelriver @UCLChemistry Congrats Miguel!! 🥳

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@samfrowe The height on this 🤩 You make it look easy!

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@QuyenUCSB @nielsenlab_qmul Thanks so much, it is mutual! 😊

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

Excited for my first in-person talk! If you're around #F21MRS stop by 5pm today in session SB08.11.04 for some fun with modified PEDOTs 🧪

[Christian Nielsen @nielsenlab_qmul]

@Materials_MRS have saved the best for last at #F21MRS. If you are still in Boston, come and hear @kousseva discuss her latest work on chemically engineered #PEDOT derivatives with some cool properties; it's talk SB08.11.04 at 5 pm.

[Christian Nielsen @nielsenlab_qmul]

Sad to be missing out on #F21MRS but happy that we @nielsenlab_qmul are still strongly represented in Boston. Come and visit Roman Halaksa at tonight’s poster session if you are interested in conjugated polymers for OECT applications. Poster SB08.08.10.

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@laure_kayser @nielsenlab_qmul @LaureKayserLab @udmseg Thank you, likewise! :)

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@arseniyadis @biochemist_hero @mresmini @nielsenlab_qmul Thank you!! 😄

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

4 years, 3 hundred pages, 2 examiners and 1 global pandemic later... I've finally defended my PhD! 🥳 Thank you @biochemist_hero & @mresmini for a great discussion and of course @nielsenlab_qmul for getting me here! #PhDone (pending minor corrections) 🎉👩🏻‍🔬

[Christian Nielsen @nielsenlab_qmul]

Big congratulations to @kousseva for passing her PhD viva with flying colours 🥳 🎉 And many thanks to @biochemist_hero and @mresmini for being great examiners!

[Christina Kousseff @kousseva]

@DrEdNeal Thanks Ed!! Haha yeah I'm not going to lie, it's been a journey 😂 Hope you're doing good!
