I am a Senior Editor at Development. My role involves working with authors to produce review-type articles for the journal, which includes commissioning and editing the manuscripts, organising peer review and representing the journal at conferences. Previously, I worked on Hedgehog signalling evolution during my Post Doc with Phil Ingham, and I investigated haemovascular development in the zebrafish during my PhD with Jim Smith.

Thank you for sharing your wonderfully honest account. I expect many others have had similar feelings during this time and I think it's great that you've started a dialogue about mental health and support.
