In the very style of a Christmas card but wearing less wintery clothes, the Williams lab postdocs wish you all a merry Postdoc Appreciation Week #NPAW2024 #LovePostdocs @RebeccaSmithPhD @GaryfalliaGouna @MartinaMorchio @AnnaWilliamsLab
A picture of me with Rebecca Smith, Garyfallia Gouna and Rana Fetit, three of the other postdocs at the Williams lab. We are all wearing our lab coats in the lab, with two long benches full of chemicals and lab tools.
