Important new resource available that is likely of interest to the @iMBE_Leeds Wellbeing Committee @_mackbrown14 @LisaMDuff @EDYoung202 @_megansharrock and others!.

It was such a treat to feel kid-in-a-sweetshop-excited about tendon and ligament microanatomy implications - thanks again @Dr_JZP for the brilliant talk! 😀.
A great day visiting @iMBE_Leeds to talk about the @Paxton_Lab @OR_UK funded work and discuss the importance of #anatomy teaching and #research . Thanks to @sophie__w for the invite and the hospitality!.

A well written piece reflecting my current feelings about flying. Despite the difficulties of the heatwave disruptions this summer on my train journeys to Austria, I would still choose this picturesque adventure again!."Avoiding air travel as an academic"

When it's mid-summer and you're stuffed full of cold and working on your transfer report, the little things sure make you chuckle. Thanks powerpoint for your alt text suggestion, but I think you'll find it's a blood vessel in an MCL epiligament #histology #phdchat

I'm planning on asking for donations to these kinds of projects for future birthdays etc. It would be so cool to give the rest of the world the awareness of these kinds of organisations to be able to do the same, if they are in a position to do so 💚 5/5.
