Me not editing wikipedia. Also, not in the lab. To find me not doing either of these things is very rare, but not quite notable enough for a wikipedia article

I am a Biology graduate from the University of Nottingham and am currently studying for my PhD in Plant Pathology. I work on the molecular basis of phytoplasma diseases, including how phytoplasmas cause phyllody.

Articles I plan (the best laid plans of mice and men) to work on include those in the areas of plant pathology, molecular biology, genetics, actors and whatever take my fancy. I used to work on Stargate SG-1 amd Stargate Atlantis articles but have now quit because I find wikipedia policies for fiction and use of copyrighted images to annoying.

Because taxonomists are often the bane of my life, I also create redirect pages for synonyms of species names. Hopefully this will help other clueless biologists like me.

I will also probably trek around adding plot summaries to any books I have particularly enjoyed.

I try to do good article reviews on subjects I am reasonably familiar with such a tv episodes of shows I watch, books I have read, films I have seen and biology articles.

I'm happy to upload pictures I have taken and also those that constitute fair use and adding fair use rationales to screenshots as well.

Templates I use

(You know you're addicted to editing wikipedia when you accidentally start putting square brackets round half the words you type, even when your not on the website)

PhD limiting amount of time I can edit
