4. And last but not least… we bought a house in Belfast 😱 ft. A little room for a home office! Looking forward to taking my poor books which have been in boxes for the last almost year out and onto a shelf 🎉

1. Having my first two PhD students Lauren and Jack start in the lab. They are awesome and full of enthusiasm for science. Having meetings with them is such a highlight of the work week!
