The story of "EMMA"

Guest entry. Marco Mambretti, PhD-wannabe in tumour angiogenesis, shared with me his excticing journey across the scientific universe. 

Emma is a PCR tubes tray. Emma is smart and green. Emma is not just a tray, an object, an soulless items, but Emma has got feelings and dreams. For most of the follower of this blog, it would not make any sense and never will, but one of the biggest dream of Emma, the green tray, is to travel around the world, experience everything that a life as a PCR tubes tray can offer. Here we document one of the adventure of green Emma, this usually is a common trip that happens on Tuesdays or Fridays, but today something new happened.

After have accomplished its/her job, Emma decided to take a pause from her usual routine and go for a walk.

A tour in Bioscience building getting lost surrounded by incomprehensible and faint science posters...


 Observing collections of skeletons in corridor which made Emma really scared...poor Emma.
 A fast trip to bullring and canals...Brindley place has never been so nice this time of the year...
 Resting on a chair. Walking up and down is definitely too tiring for Emma...
 Let's have a walk...
 Maybe rest a bit....
 This fucking bicycle! Danger! Danger!
 Tired of her tedious life Emma is evaluating to recycle herself and become a new green piece of plastic...but...
 After a long call with her psychiatrist decided not to give up this life. Maybe one day Emma will manage to get into really exciting adventures...
 Waiting for midlands transport...1h...2h...it's raining...5h later...the bus does run but does not stop. Apparently discrimination against green PCR tubes trays is everyday business for west midlands transport...Hijos the puta!
 Let's go back home, shall we?
 Yellow doors reminds Emma of the colour of her mother, she was a beautiful YELLOW tray who fell in love with a blue cap falcon tube. It was a summer love, that finished as it started, in within a snap of pipettes...


 Here we are, where Emma belongs, Bicknell lab. Although the adventure of today is finished, Emma is already dreaming of her new trip...
