dry ice in the laboratory

In school they introduced the new class I'm taking: CSI. It's going to be exciting! This picture is from Rays.

ulvhälls herrgård

We went to Ulvhälls Herrgård in the evening to eat dinner. Afterwards we officially became xRays. I did not sleep at all that night, I was too busy writing in everybody's summer books!

final presentation

After four weeks of hard work and fun we had our final presentations at Tekniska Museet (Museum of Technology) in Stockholm. All of them went extremely well and I really enjoyed listening to it all. Here I am at the end of my presentation.

rays paper due tomorrow

The Rays Paper is due tomorrow and I'm kind of anxious. People are currently correcting my paper so I'll probably stay up late and look it through over and over again...

Outfit:

Skirt: East Village.

Boots: Ash.

mango lassi & mac

Working on my Rays Paper. It's quite cozy because we're just small talking, eating and above all; writing! This picture is from one of the many train rides to and from Karolinska Institute.

books from the mittag-leffler institute

Today I'll work on my paper but later we're going to have a small break where we'll go swimming. Cool books from the Mittag-Leffler Institute can be seen above.

We worked out yesterday evening before watching a movie.  Today, I've been working on my Rays paper the whole day. Goodnight!

karolinska institute

I've had the best week at the Department of Clinical Microbiology at Karolinska Institute, Stockholm. If you want to experience real researching (and missing it a lot when it's over), you should apply to Rays next year! Thanks for having me!

Tomorrow's going to be the last day in the lab. I'm going to miss it a lot.

dry ice

I've had an exquisite day! The experiments went great, our counsellors came and visited us, which was fun. Other than that I've just been working on my report and listening to a lecture about paradoxes. Sort of tired at the moment so I might go to bed early. Please note that I didn't drink the dry ice...

Cool image perspective vise. The liquid in the wells is blood plasma.

young doctor

Nice outfit, huh? I've been wearing this most of the past week and when I'm going to the restaurant in the hospital people stare weirdly at me. Do I look too young to be a doctor?

in the lab

Last day in the lab this week. Next week is going to be so much fun, I'm going to test a medicine on cells. I think I'll actually miss hanging out in the lab this weekend but it will be nice with some spare time.

chemicool

I just thought this tee was appropriate for the lab... There's an "L" behind the last Oxygen by the way.

results

This really made my day! I succeeded in the standard task that I got which means that I'm allowed to do "patient controls" tomorrow. I'm so excited! Pretty pictures, right?

ki day one

So this is what I'm doing all day... Arriving in Flemingsberg, research at Karolinska Institutet, lunch and then more research. It's so exciting and I really care deeply about the subject and my assignments. I promise I'll take some pictures of me in the lab... You can read a post that I wrote on Ray's blog.

library pictures

Today we went to the Mittag-Leffler Institute with the Rays group. It was a lovely old villa with lots of mathematical books. We went on a really interesting guided tour and well, see for yourself. The place is beautiful! I listened to Library Pictures by Arctic Monkeys on the way back to Strängnäs and I just thought the title was appropriate.

strängnäs

I think I have to reveal where I am... I'm in a nice town called Strängnäs because I've got accepted to Rays this summer and I'm doing a scientific project at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm. You can follow me on their blog and check out what it actually is. See links below. I'm having the best time and I'm very busy! More posts and pics are coming up!

Rays for excellence
