I'll miss you too @vikinggenes!
After many years, we say goodbye to our brilliant Project Manager, @shona_kerr. She has kept us running smoothly through all the phases of the study and was instrumental in getting us the permissions we needed to return 'actionable' results to our volunteers. We will miss you!
