Interdisciplinary research can be challenging, but exciting and rewarding to work with @ffrancafrat @Mauri_group @WilleggM @JosefNg1 and @DrAlexStew. Loving this paper, tell your sterile transcripts from your productive ones and the world of CSR opens up with fascinating insights
sciCSR developed by @FraternaliLab, @JosefNg1 and colleagues is a computational workflow that uses scRNA-seq data to predict class switch recombination events and B cell dynamics. https://t.co/uUWIvey7JJ

Or interpreted another way. People who can afford to drink champagne have better health. This we need to fix.

There’ll be >1.5bn people over 65 by 2050. Transdisciplinary healthier ageing research is critical. We recently welcomed our first cohort of 56 academic fellows to rise to this challenge. @GiaFundacion@ILCUK @UniOfSurrey

Remarkable research for healthy ageing, and more! Are you a member of the academy yet?
Ever wondered what makes @DunhillMedical different from other #healthyageing funders? From offering a spectrum of funding options, tackling both broad and specific issues, to combining research with action - read about how we’re helping to drive change: https://t.co/HA6z4CwBnm

Huge thank you to @Emma_S_Chambers for all her expertise she's brought to our Board as one of our first ever ECR Trustees. In particular, she's been a champion for developing initiatives to provide extra support for ECRs & on our vaccine engagement activities
Today is my last board meeting as @britsocimm trustee. I have spent six wonderful years representing ECRs - I am incredibly proud of ECR initiatives brought in by the BSI, such as the Career Enhancement Grants https://t.co/Kyzfp25wqD. Thanks to the trustees past and present.
