We've got that Friday feeling at MicrobesNG HQ! As it's #TellAJokeDay we're sharing some of our best Dad jokes to help us all make it through to 5pm #NationalTellAJokeDay #Jokes If you've got a science joke, drop it in the comments, if you make us laugh we'll send you a treat!

All set up and ready for Glasgow Microbiology Collective event tomorrow🦠 Glasgow Microbiology Collective

It’s almost time for the Glasgow Microbiology Collective event to start 🎉🦠 Glasgow Microbiology Collective Make sure you stop by our stand later and try your hand at our buzz wire game 🏆

We've got scores on the doors for out BUZZ wire game🎉 John Munnoch posted a respectable 20.12 seconds to take 🥇 Angelika Kiepas 🦋 proved her previous victory was not a fluke, taking the 🥈 spot Hajra Ashraf snuck into 🥉 Glasgow Microbiology Collective Glasgow Microbiology Collective
