Another race, win & adventure. I intended to take on the 20km open water swim around Keppel Island. Due to strong storm, the course was changed to a 15km loop. Maybe shorter, but the conditions made it more challenging. Storm. Waves. Tide. Happy to come 1st woman, 2nd overall.

Looking at our new Zenker Lab group photo and reflecting back how it all started. What connects us all is our passion to discover new things about #stem #cells & #embryonic #development. It will advance our ability us to restore diseased or damaged body functions. @ARMI_Labs
