A bit late in posting, but had an incredible experience at ITRS in Brest, France. I had the chance to present a poster, hear many amazing talks, and connect with so many passionate researchers. Feeling privileged to be part of this community. Already looking forward to the next one!

Queen bee tag update 🐝 We had 50–75% success relocating previously tagged juvenile Laminaria digitata. Some tags may have been obscured by holdfast growth or sediment. Rising tides made searches challenging. Plan B is underway for next month 🧐

Grateful for the opportunity to present at the MBA Postgraduate Conference 2025 in Hull! Looking forward to the rest of the talks over the coming days. @mblscience.bsky.social

Starting to organise Marine Biological Association Postgraduate Conference 2026. This time hosted by Newcastle University, see you here next April! @robynmastinwynn.bsky.social @thembauk.bsky.social

Tagging juvenile kelp with queen bee tags 🐝 Spot them if you can 🔍 I'll check back next month to measure their growth to compare naturally occurring juveniles with my restoration efforts. Updates soon! @newcastleuni.bsky.social

A perfect Monday morning spent collecting kelp holdfasts for an MRes project looking at marine heatwaves 🤿🌊 Spot me working very hard….. @newcastleuni.bsky.social @pippajmoore.bsky.social @

A trip to the field is a rare treat recently, but a lovely day in the field helping PhD students with testing kelp restoration techniques on exposed coasts and the effects of topography on kelp restoration success @robynmastinwynn.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social

Excited to put my new RYA commercially endorsed powerboat Level 2 certificate to use in the coming months! 🚤🌊
