I have a history of bringing treats to my lectures when I teach. I did the same for the intro microbiology students here at the University of Canterbury in Ōtautahi Christchurch NZ. Amazingly, two #AotearoaMicronauts from the class came by my office to drop off treats for me!

I really like calling my intro microbiology students here at the University of Canterbury in Ōtautahi Christchurch NZ #AotearoaMicronauts! I will need to get some kind of calligraphy or carving of that to remember this experience.

The #AotearoaMicronauts in introductory microbiology here at the University of Canterbury in Ōtautahi Christchurch NZ are top notch. I have so enjoyed working with them, and remain grateful. Yes, I miss teaching!

I hope to find other ways to promote #MicrobialEnthusiasm and #MicrobialCentrism.

Today was my last day of lecturing for my #AotearoaMicronauts in introductory microbiology at the University of Canterbury in Ōtautahi Christchurch NZ. As lectures are recorded & attendance not required, I am happy to see 17 of the 79 students enrolled today. I have enjoyed teaching here very much.

As my Erskine Fellowship winds down, I was able to do a tiny #LuxArt session with a few of my #AotearoaMicronauts at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch NZ. We used a safe luminous bacterium I isolated from local seawater. I so adore the student creativity! #MicrobialPR
