Thank you to dr Graciela Delvene (Instituto Geológico y Minero de España CSIC) for your research visit to Instytut Biologii Ewolucyjnej! Dr Skawinska & Dr Delvene had a very productive week - lots of fun studying #Unionida, and lots of new ideas & plans for the future!

Photo of a dissertation nailed to a plank. The dissertation is titled "Ecosystem Engineering by Freshwater Mussels: Effects on macroinvertebrate communities, decomposition processes and fish behaviour".

A picture of me nailing my dissertation.

Nailed it! (In Sweden, grad students nail their dissertations to a plank 3 weeks before the defence).
