For #InternationalWomensDay we want to highlight the excellent leadership of Prof. Karen Heywood at UEA School of Environmental Sciences - just finishing the very successful #AntarcticPICCOLO cruise for #Roses_PICCOLO . On the #SDA British Antarctic Survey 🐧 ship. A great role model for all the young scientists on board.

We are coming to an end with #AntarcticPICCOLO . We managed to enlist 14 Weddell, Southern Elephant and Crabeater seals so far with the last tagging opportunity tomorrow. Some tags still need customers.
