๐ Fresh delivery of crocodile serum! Collected from PFAS hotspots around airports & defence bases. Curious to see what these samples reveal about PFAS bioaccumulation in these long-lived animals and their health impacts using omics-based tools! ๐ฌ #Science #Research #PFAS #Crocodiles #metabolomics
Just visited Agilent in Singapore and got a behind-the-scenes look at their factory where LCMS instruments are made! ๐ญ๐ฌ Truly fascinating to see the precision and innovation in action. #Agilent #Singapore #LCMS #Innovation #TechTour
๐ฟโจ Iโm currently visiting the Centre for Environmental Research & Justice at the University of Birmingham! ๐๏ธ itโs great to hear about the fascinating #omics research being done to assess chemical hazards & environmental harm (๐คซ for me, the centre name conjures up thoughts of Captain Planet too! ๐๐)
And the installation begins! Canโt wait to have our new LC-TQ up and running... so many environmental metabolomics questions to explore with this new instrument.

Excited to be presenting at the University of Birmingham's biosciences faculty on the impacts of PFAS on Australia's wildlife. ๐ฟ๐ฆ Highlighting the use of #omics-based tools to uncover how these 'forever chemicals' affect our ecosystems. #Biosciences #PFAS #WildlifeConservation
๐งฌ๐ฌ What can #omics -based tools reveal about the 'tar' balls that washed up on #Australian #beaches this summer? We are about to use these advanced techniques to help identify their complex composition, trace their origins, & understand environmental impacts. ๐๐ #Metabolomics #EnvironmentalScience
Just landed in London to kick off a 3+ month sabbatical in the UK and Europe! It's going to be awesome to meet various EPAs and research institutes that are using omics-based tools to assess environmental harm. ๐ฌ #ResearchJourney #EnvironmentalScience #OmicsTools

๐ฟ The vibrant shades of ๐green๐ from extracting metabolites and lipids from various algae & seaweed were stunning! We're on the hunt for novel bioactive compounds to enhance our food and boost nutritional benefits.๐ฑ

So the number of boxes has multiplied! ๐ฆ Now we wait for them to be unpacked and our new LC-MS to be installed on the bench so we can analyze environmental metabolomics samples en masse! ๐ฑ๐ฌ #ScienceLife #LabWork #Metabolomics
From small things, big things growโฆ..watch this space!
