Could not be prouder of this wee person 🥰

I think she is happy 🥰

All set for the birthday girl tomorrow!

This was such a lovely event, huge congratulations to all the composers and performers 🎻 🎵 👏🏻 wonderful pieces inspired by our very special people

Victoria showcasing her exciting work in the field of anatomy resources for the visually impaired! The power of a chance conversation opening up and whole new research idea 💡

Fantastic day examining at @unistrathclyde.bsky.social today. I used to walk this route every day!

A wonderful card from a student!

An enforced Sunday off! Going to enjoy a coffee and a read of this recommendation 👍🏻

My wee helper today!

Saltire in the sky! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A fun night at the Medics Musical! 🎤 🎵

Well a grant application rejection at 830pm was not on my anticipated list for tonight 😢 Feedback was strong but frustratingly, not enough money in the pot to fund. Once again…. So close.

It was lots of fun to host the Anatomy & Palaeontology student research symposium in Anatomy@Edinburgh and hear about the fabulous work going on in both departments. We had reptile brains, hairy spiders, ballet dancers and 3D printing! Well done to all the speakers 👏🏻

Very proud to be showcasing our ATLAS Facility work in anatomy@Edinburgh today at the Edinburgh Medical School 300 alumni weekend. @edinburgh-uni.bsky.social #edinburgh300 #edinburghmedicalschool

So good I had to do it again #dexandem

What a wonderful sight to leave work to! 🌈 Better days are coming….! 🙂

Another from the Special Issue - @drjzp.bsky.social and colleagues showcase a new methodology for gaining accurate dimensions of soft tissues during #dissection. Many methods overlook the laxity of soft tissue when describing dimensions and use a 'point-to-point- approach.

West is BEST!

If I could give you one thing it would be confidence (or a scented candle) #oneday #emanddex @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social

A cup of tea solves everything? Let’s see! 🤔

Wand picking for this wee one today 🪄✨🧙‍♀️ I could do with one of these myself….! #lonelybroomstick

Latest paper from the lab on our new model for tenogenic macrotissue production. Big congrats to Dr Vino Prabhakaran on the 3rd paper from her thesis 👏 iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

Huge congratulations to Vinothini Prabhakaran on the third paper accepted from her PhD thesis, this time in Biofabrication! This paper has examined a scaffold-free method of engineering tendon-like macrotissues with encouraging morphological maturation. Full paper to share soon!

Delighted to share the latest issue of the Journal of Anatomy, a really rewarding project to work on with fellow Guest Editors @floragroening.bsky.social and @fabqu.bsky.social onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/14697580...

All set up and ready for the Anatomical Museum Open Day - heart themed! 🫀🫀🫀🫀🫀 We have talks, painting clay hearts, anatomical heart jigsaws and a whole lot more to see! #anatomy #anatomical #heart #valentines

Paper accepted! Big congratulations to Vinothini Prabhakaran on another paper acceptance today! Here we present a simple model for in vitro interface production…. Lots more details coming soon!

A fantastic visit to my old stomping ground today and my first as external examiner on the MSc in Biomedical Engineering degree programme @unistrathclyde.bsky.social Very impressed with the breadth of expertise and facilities and looking forward to the next few years!

A very special day today! Huge congratulations to superstar Sophie on a very successful PhD viva! Could not be prouder!! Big thanks to the examiners, Dr Mortimer and Prof Brockett for their interest and excellent examination of the thesis

I’m so thankful to all that donated - especially the very kind person who doubled our total last night! ❤️ donations are anonymous (unless you untick a tiny box!) so I’ve no idea who it was but THANK YOU! 🤩

We had lots of fun at our ATLAS Festive Event, raising money for Scottish Action for Mental Health! Staff and students came along to make their own festive decorations out of clay and 3D printed cutters and/or painted some bespoke 3D printed designs in a variety of lovely colours!

We had a very festive afternoon making decorations from our ATLAS 3D printed designs and cookie cutters while raising money for @scottishactionformentalhealth ! More dates next week so don’t miss out!

Well done to Nina, Merin and Eliana (1st year MBChB) for running the Art of the Brain workshop at Broomhouse Primary school today! P3 learned about the brain and what important jobs it does before painting their own brain masterpieces!

If you are interested in anatomy and tissue engineering then get in touch to find out more about this project with me and Dr Vorstius at the University of Dundee www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Another successful brachial plexus session this evening, lots of great model making and some excellent competition entries! Round 2 coming on Thursday!

Moving for Movember! So proud of these two 🥰 Donate to support men’s mental health support and help Norry meet his target 🎯 🏃‍♂️ movember.com/m/norryleona...

I have been so excited to read this but never found the time! 😥 Today I’m grabbing 25 mins while my daughter is swimming to get started and hopefully improve my day! 😊

A fantastic turnout for our ATLAS Bone Bootcamp this evening! We had painting of landmarks on 3D printed bones, evaluation of new teaching models and a ‘Guess the bone by touch’ competition! Well done to our worthy winners! 🥇 🥈 🥉

Get yourself a colleague that hand delivers a large coffee to the end of your lecture cos they know how exhausted you are from cough, cough, coughing all night 😂 thank you @bonedoctorphd.bsky.social ! You are a star!! ⭐ ☕️ ⭐ ☕️ ⭐

We celebrated #worldanatomyday with An Evening in Anatomy at @edinburghup.bsky.social. ATLAS were proud to have activities where visitors could experience anatomy learning through plaster brain painting &making 3Dprinted organs! They could also learn tissue engineering& make soft & hard scaffolds!

Busman’s holiday (!) but a wonderful visit to the Medical Museum at the University of Copenhagen ❤️ Fantastic exhibits and very well curated 👏🏻

Jeg hygger mig! 🇩🇰

Reviewing papers and grant applications can sometimes feel like a thankless task…. But this editor just made it worth it! 🤩

ATLAS Neuro Night! Thanks to all who came along! 🧠
