  5. πŸ‘‹ Hey Mastodon! Finally it is time for an introductory post!

    I'm a researcher investigating mineralised biological tissues using various forms of #microscopy πŸ”¬ with complementary #spectroscopy and #crystallography. I'm interested in #bone and #osteocytes 🦴, #teeth 🦷, #biominerals πŸ’Ž, #bacteria 🦠, #snails 🐌, #lichen 🌿, #trees 🌲, and more.
