Joined July 2022
Even though I'm trying not to use this app anymore, I thought I'd share this! Take a look if you want to find out a little bit more about my research on #asthma #pericyte #therapeutics.
Welcome our ECP Dr Rebecca Bignold, a Research Fellow from Aston University. Dr Bignold’s research focuses on elucidating the role of pericytes in airway remodeling associated with allergic asthma 🤧. More here:

Proud that research from my PhD and postdoc has been selected to be part of this scheme. I'm looking forward to collaborating with others to develop our new asthma therapeutic! 🫁.
Delighted to be supported by SPARK The Midlands to help get our research from bench to bedside. @AstonBioscience @AstonUniversity @UKRI_News @AnneliseGar @R_Bignold .

Thanks for a wonderfully written article about my recent paper! Looking forward to the future of this project! @IFLScience @JJohnsonLab @supermathskid.
A potential long-term treatment for asthma – the chronic and incurable condition in which your body occasionally forgets how to breathe – is showing promise, a new study in mice suggests.

Proud to be part of this research group and first author on the article about this groundbreaking research. Exciting times are ahead! @JJohnsonLab.
Just under 5.5 million people in the UK receive treatment for asthma and around 1,200 people die of the disease each year. A possible way to tackle one of the underlying causes of asthma has been developed by researchers from Aston University and Imperial College London!👇.
