We bid a fond farewell to Dr Petra Fischer as she leaves the Unit to take up her new position of Lecturer in Neuroscience at the University of Bristol.

Petra has been working in the Unit as part of the Brown Group and Tan Group, where she has delivered a series of important studies that elucidate the role of neuronal oscillations in the control of movement in health and disease.

Unit Interim Director Peter Magill commented "It has been a pleasure and a privilege to host Petra in the Unit for her Ph.D. studies and postdoctoral training. Petra is an exceptional researcher and has made outstanding contributions to a wide range of scientific and public engagement activities at the Unit. We look forward to exploring further opportunities to collaborate with Petra as she establishes her independent research programme in Bristol. We will all miss working with Petra in the Unit, but it is a comfort to know that it is ‘au revoir’ and not ‘goodbye’."
