I always love the virus snowflakes, but your updated song lyrics are great! Making it our labs official carol!

Thrilled to receive the @balrcommunity.bsky.social and @btsrespiratory.bsky.social mid-career lecture award at the BTS Winter Meeting.
The level of science presented at the conference has been so high. I am in esteemed company!

Thank you! Now I have to figure out what to say in a prize lecture… 😬

Thanks Ed! There are so many scientists that do so much great public engagement- yourself included!

Honoured and surprised to be awarded the @microbiologysociety.org Outreach & Engagement prize for 2026.
Previous winners are impressive scientists and fantastic communicators, a list I feel very under-qualified to now be part of!
