Services to Biology!

Off to London tomorrow for a day of meetings (Saudi Embassy, Historic Royal Palaces, Defra) before ending up at the Institute of Biology to see my parents being presented with the IoB Gold Medal for services to science. I am very proud that they have carried on sitting on IoB national and regional committees, organising school science competitions for IoB and BAAS and supporting science education for the 20 years+ since they both retired. I hope that I have the same level of energy and commitment come 2026 when it is my time to formally 'retire'.
