This year, we awarded £12.2 million funding to projects that solve long-term challenges to plants, crops and farmed animals.

@Mark_Spencer visited one of the winners of the ‘On farm Environmental Resilience’ competition, Wye Hops Limited, to learn more.

Ye(a)sterday I had the absolute honour of presenting my PhD work at @yeast2023 in the Systems and Synthetic Bio workshop, it was such an amazing experience and I'm so grateful to be apart of such a fab community of researchers!!!

@ItaiYanai I'm a final year PhD student and my supervisor is so so relaxed, when I tell him I'm working late or on the weekends he tells me to spend my time however I wish but to make sure I do get some down time! Which honestly the lack of pressure makes me more eager to work late!

After a day exploring Florences art galleries, I've just registered at the 31st ICYGMB, super excited for it to begin tomorrow!

Back on the SEM today having a look at the structure of some PU sponges. Some may say I've lost my mind but just wait for the images we took!!

My job is just… lab

[Charlotte Bilsby @teawithscience]

Anyone else come into their lab and find tiny ducks appearing?? I'm worried they're plotting against me

@vegaes_sam this reminded me of you...

Are you frustrated by the limited #MassSpec data available for #botanical #naturalproducts?

Let's fix this!

#LEAFBot is a phytochemical MS2 database in @GNPS_UCSD created by @jkellogg916 and #Cechlab. We are accepting additions.

Final @SoCoBioDtp summer school this week! Sad they're over but had such a fun time at @portsmouthuni learning about science communication and media #sciencecomms #socobio

[Charlotte Bilsby @teawithscience]

Current plastic disposal methods aren't good enough. Bakers yeast producing novel enzymes could provide a way to remove plastic entirely #TweetYourResearch #SoCoBiosummerschoolchallenge

Getting my KFG presentation ready for next week at Abu Dhabi airport on my 4 hour layover, definitely need another cup of coffee
