For those that know me, you can play a game of "Where's Wally" and find me in the crowd in the first picture from Tues night seeing @therapyofficial (who were brilliant by the way) at @the1865 in Southampton with my daughter Rosalind
Fantastic night @the1865 Southampton! Huge thanks to all who rammed the place and brought the noise on a cold Tuesday night, respect! 📸:Mike McM
If any of my fellow #VEM ers are thinking of leaving academia (and why wouldn't you!)..... (Again I'd seriously consider myself if I weren't tied to the UK) Job at Thermo Fisher Scientific, Applications Development Scientist – Volume Electron Microscopy jobs.thermofisher.com/MdxD34N
Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.
Our team in Ghent wants to grow!! If you would be interested in doing electron microscopy with us, please check out the job posted below. Come join a great team @VIBtechnologies! Trust me - it is really a great place to work! jobs.vib.be/j/94535/electr…

Just so anyone I know on here that I spent time with at the VEM Tech forum last week is aware, I and a few others have developed covid. Hope you all got away with it!

Only 1 week now until the vEM Tech Forum! Looking forward to the talks, posters, demo lounges, challenge panels and spending time with the vEM community!
It's happening again, though this time it's a 15 min talk and version 1.0 is currently 19 mins long! Time to be brutal with the virtual razor blade and trim it down a bit smaller! (Or I could sabotage my friend Jon Moss who is talking after me and steal his time as well?)
Reached that stage of putting together a slide deck for a 45 min talk when I realise I have over an hours worth of material at first run through! Happens every time, I just think, "I'll show one more dataset!" Time to start trimming away at it! ✂️
