KateMarie<p><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> Hi! I’m Kate and I am a <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/scientist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>scientist</span></a> with an interest in <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/extracellularvesicles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>extracellularvesicles</span></a> in the fields of reproduction and immunology. I recently took my first non-academic job as a <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/sciencewriter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sciencewriter</span></a> after a couple of postdocs when I moved from the UK to New Zealand.<br>I’ll mostly be talking science, politics (left wing, of course) and anything to do with my hobbies which mostly consist of being a geeky plant lover. Which basically means I love TTRPG, board games, video games and anything arty.</p>
