Yesterday, after 34+ years of excellence in teaching & research, Dr Julian Knight gave his last organic lecture at Newcastle. Then this happened...😍 Thanks so much to Julian, and all the staff and students that turned out to wish him well in his retirement! #WeAreNCL

Late posting this but back in December we had our annual Christmas Symposium with the @kawamuragroup.bsky.social (recently joined bsky). Great morning of science followed by an afternoon of festive fun. Feels a long time ago now!
