Just a quick update to say hello again…

Just a quick update to say hello again, and hope that you manage to get online and blogging now! Following the session this afternoon on forms, have a go at filling them in as best as you can, and then bring them into the lab to show us what you’ve managed. Use this summer as a way of finding out as much as you can about the behind the scenes parts of scientific research, as this is the area that will put you way ahead of the game in September!

As for my research, I’ve only just managed to sub on my E. coli strains today that I grew on Thursday of last week, so it’s been a slow start!

Welcome to all our new students and welcome…

Welcome to all our new students, and welcome back to those who contributed last year. Do please introduce yourself and let us know what you’re working on here, and keep us updated with your progress.

This year I’ll carry on with some of my plasmid stability work, but I’m also working on background fibre research, with the hope of getting a couple of papers out – watch this space!
