SQUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!

Heavens knows how as the only good things which could be said about the interview were I looked grown-up in my pencil skirt and fitted shirt, and managed to sit in a v. lady-like fashion through out the whole thing.

Artificial pancreas a step closer?

This is very interesting:
"Scientists in Cambridge say they are moving a step closer to developing an artificial pancreas for people with diabetes."

Lorraine Hunt Lieberson


I wasn't going to do a post on Lorraine Hunt Lieberson, it seemed too intrusive, however, inspired by the funny, moving remembrance of OperaChic.

Ciao Lorraine

There are two role models in my life- women in entirely different fields who inspire me because of their integrity, commitment, bravery and honesty. one was Lorraine, the other is my PhD supervisor. One I never even met, the other I've been attached to for almost four years, yet both have been huge influences on my work.

Thank you Lorraine for the beauty of your voice, and the inspiration you gave to so many people.
