Big congrats to @Veronica_Gre for passing her PhD viva yesterday! She’s been a rock in my lab since I moved to Bristol, did lots of cool things with recombinases and I can’t wait to see where she heads next! Big thanks to @ceronifranci for examining and @PR0FG for co-supervising.

It has been a great privilege to work with the authors, journal staff and reviewers on both these papers.
Huge thanks to all involved! Personal thanks from me to @erlarson_phd@HarperHelen and @emilyxarmstrong, without whom these papers would not have happened
We also have another amazing paper - an exploration into plant research landscape changes over 11 years. By @erlarson_phd, @HarperHelen, @PR0FG, myself, and a wonderful host of other authors.
