In January 2019, we got engaged. But for COVID19, today would have been the day I married the love of my life at @York_Minster. Instead, we're watching Netflix. Fingers crossed for January 2021!

*Lovely thing of the day* I just got an email with those three little joyous words "manuscript is approved" 🥳 Love plants? Sure you do! Want to know the outcome of studying FIVE generations of plants exposed to ionising radiation? It'll go live here: frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Very lucky to have been at the preview of the soon to be released film Radioactive, starring Rosamund Pike, in Soho this evening. Showed the struggles of being a female scientist in the late 19th/ early 20th century.
