Congrats, James!.
New publication from the lab. We show a newly discovered role for complement receptor C3aR1 in adipose thermogenesis. Interestingly, we find opposing roles between male and female mice. Congrats to twitterless Lunkun, Ankit, Eric, Alfonso @ShannonReilly5 .

Congrats, Yicheng and Eric! Looking forward to seeing the results!.
@WCM_CVRI @YichengLong and MSKCC Eric Lai @lucksmith were awarded a research grant from the Tri-Institutional Stem Cell Initiative supported by the Starr Foundation. They will study how a novel transcription factor regulates epigenetics during embryonic development. Congrats!

Maiko has led some truly exciting research, discovering new biology and learning new pathophysiology! Looking forward to all speaker s at the conference.
2/2. Low blood sugar level (hypoglycaemia) is where level of sugar (glucose) in blood drops too low & needs immediate treatment. NB. #CACNA1C is green (high diagnostic evidence level) on 'R144 Congenital hyperinsulinism' panel in the NHS National Genomic Test Directory.
