*thanks to Nithish for taking some pictures 🙏.
I'm so happy that Yu-Chien had a good discussion with her project, Xinghua @lixinghua had a travel award, and Mehran @mehranakhtar had good delivery of his talk at Ukclockclub

Here is my first post on Mastadoom.

Had a fantastic time presenting my PhD research on neurogenetics at the UK Clock Club Meeting! It was a great opportunity to share my work on genetic influences on circadian rhythms and engage in insightful discussions with experts in the field.

Grateful for the valuable feedback and inspiring conversations—excited to take these ideas forward in my research!

A rare group picture after lab meeting, glad the lab is growing with PhD student Xinghua Li is settling in and new MSc student Farhiya Hasan starting @mehranakhtar @lixinghua
Following this success, we have our summer lab lunch tradition, this time we tried #Leicester must-go unique #Uyghur restaurant (one of the only three in the UK). While they are mainly meat dishes, they managed to meet our dietary requirements! And have nice wood ear fungus/cabbage dumplings 😋 #lablife @mehranakhtar @lixinghua
Leaving drink for Tobias and Clelia, who facilitated a cool project in the lab, now moving on to exciting new adventures in MRC Harwell and USA placement, very happy for you and wish you all the best! #lablife @mehranakhtar
