Weekend Work! As I head into the last year of my PhD in 2020, one of the things I tried to focus on in 2019 was getting a good work/life balance. While it is hard to avoid weekends, especially with 🐭 to look after, I always made sure to take breaks. Some weekend I felt like spending a couple hours at the lab writing or doing data analysis. Other days I just wanted to be in and out as quick as possible. I’m a big believer in listening to your brain and going with the flow. I always find I am the most productive when I want to work as opposed to forcing myself to work. . . Let me know how you approach working on the weekend! . . #phdlife #postgradlife #phdstudent #research #researcher #study #phdstudent

What a great couple of days at #ASI2019SA 🧬 I learnt a lot more about immunology, got some ideas for my project and also won two awards! One for my presentation at the Tumour Immunology Workshop and one for my Poster 🎉 Back to work for one week before my trip to Singapore! #phdlife #phdstudent #postgradlife #research #researcher #cancerresearcher #conferencelife #scientist

Having fun at the #jomarlifesciences booth at #ASI2019SA 🌪 Won myself an awesome science t-shirt but unfortunately wasn’t able to catch the $100 voucher 😅

I won a Prize 🎉 Super happy to have won a prize in the Stromal and Tumour Immunology workshop at #ASI2019SA 🔬 Presented some of my PhD work (the exciting stuff is under embargo because of ip) and I am keen to learn some more about immunology this week, as I must admit that I much prefer reading about cancer biology so my immunology knowledge is definitely not up to scratch 😅 #scientist #researcher #phdlife #phdstudent #postgradlife #conference

Just had to share this meme my students made of me when they should have been doing their experiments 😂 I’m just happy that my love of science comes across when I teach 👩‍🔬 #scientist #womeninscience #womeninstem #phdlife #phdstudent #postgradlife

Hi 👋 Hello 👋 How are you? It’s been a while Instagram! Lots of things have happened (some good, some bad) in the many months since I last posted on this account and chatted to all my lovely science friends! ✅ I got a grant!! This will fund my salary for the last 6 months of my PhD as well as some of our experiments. Also, not too shabby for my CV. ❌ I had to delay my RNAsequencing for 2 months to wait for 2 more samples. This data is so so so important for my PhD and it was so hard waiting to get it analysed. ✅ Loving my tap dancing, jazz and musical theatre extra curriculars at the moment. ❌ I had to say goodbye to one of my cats, Bucky, whom I still miss dearly. ✅ I HAVE JUST OVER ONE MONTH LEFT OF MY PHD ❌ I HAVE JUST OVER ONE MONTH LEFT OF MY PHD I’m hoping to get back into posting on Instagram as the upcoming year is going to be HECTIC! I’m going to 3 conferences, have so many exciting experiments planned and HAVE TO ACTUALLY WRITE MY THESIS. So, look forward to seeing me posting and living my science life again! (This photo was after my dance concert dress rehearsal, I normally don’t look nearly this good when I’m actually in the lab 😅) #phdlife #phdstudent #postgradlife #scientist #researcher
