   Looking forward to the # NobelPrize in # Physics being announced tomorrow morning at about 5:45am ET. After the # Medicine or # Physiology prize, which rightly acknowleged key work in mRNA that led to highly effective vaccines developed at outstanding speed, I am excited to see what is selected for my field tomorrow. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/a264eb6e1fcb0529e59e6bdb85fee0fac19f23502e4cf88b9e9b3ad82089c54e/view

   Good first day at # QueensUniversity . Touched base with colleagues, as well as the PhD student working with me on the # PICO experiment. Really nice to have some long conversations across a range of issues. Made a huge batch of additions to the “to do” list. Setup sub-steps for many of them. Started working through those and made good progress. Made some improvements to # PICO monitoring software, including screen captures of our software-based data-acquisition system panel! Yay, info!

   This is the week when the # NobelPrize announcements begin to roll out. I tend to focus on the science-oriented prizes. First up, Medicine or Physiology! I am relieved to see that the mRNA vaccines are in the spotlight this year! “Nobel Prize in medicine awarded to scientists who laid foundation for messenger RNA vaccines” https://www. washingtonpost.com/science/202 3/10/02/nobel-prize-medicine/ # WashintonPost

    Nice to be home again, but mourning the loss of the "being away" part of vacation.

    Another lovely evening at dinner tonight. I do enjoy these sunsets. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/0ebe2d5d4dfa28393282f196ad3c0d8d3543199e63349504630913fdff725728/view

    A # salmon fights its way upstream to the pool under # BridalVeilFalls to spawn before dying. The stream is littered with deceased salmon who either already made the journey (who are swept downstream when they perish) or failed in the attempt. It is 1-2km up this rocky, often shallow, stream from Lake Huron to the pool. # nature # autumn # ManitoulinIsland https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/b632a0f6539b1c09c077ededa6d668e20eeb6141352e9b394b897d03a7819b86/view

    Today's adventure was a # walk near # BridalVeilFalls , then down to Kagawong for some strolling and chocolate shopping. The salmon return to the pool under the falls to spawn and die. It is quite something to watch them work upstream for their final days. https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/2d929e71c6864b38bf3bbf81a6defc4cbb6e531c41a09fb59816fcd0dee83051/view

    It was an absolutely lovely evening last night, perfect for dinner on the patio after a really great day of # hiking , # reading , # walking into town, and just generally enjoying life on # ManitoulinIsland . https://chirp.cooleysekula.net/attachment/eba395e869c656be5d7a38f9bc98948290f6f6bb8b27cac28af8e65f485589fc/view
