@hoopoe_swana presenting an update on our @JlaTbpi project with @PNIResearchUnit today. At our lab day with @PhillipsLab @UCL_NerveEng. Over 700 questions posed by participants on the @LindAlliance PSP- “I’ve got some work to do before the next update” HB. Wonderful work!

Here we used Motor Unit Number Estimation (MUNE) to show PI3Ka accelerates nerve regeneration. This is part of a wider effort developing MUNE (and other biomarkers) to facilitate clinical translation of therapies developed in the lab. @PhillipsLab @PNIResearchUnit

Apologies to @hoopoe_swana for failing to capture her talk on camera. The presentation on our @JlaTbpi project and unique & soon to published study on #ReturnToWork & #ImpactOnChangeOfWork following #BrachialPlexusInjury had us so captivated pictures opportunities were missed.
