My favourite part of graduation was sharing the stage with these wonderful girls and the best PhD supervisor I could have asked for 🎓

Fantastic to see this work on @biorxiv_micrbio! A combination of my thesis and postdoc work to explore polyyne biosynthetic pathways and discover a #Pseudomonas metabolite we called protegencin!
Great study combining #bioinformatics, #genomics, and natural product chemistry
