It’s been such a pleasure working as part of @crgglasgow.bsky.social So many amazing colleagues, collaborators and friends over the years, thanks everyone! And how to better prepare for my next adventure as Wales Applied Virology Unit (WAVU) lecturer than with this amazing present from them.

Not all chemokine signaling is about cell migration! In mouse erythroblasts, CXCL12-bound CXCR4 enters the nucleus to control gene transcription, trigger calcium bursts, and drive red blood cell formation—especially enucleation. 🔗 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…#chemokinen#CXCR4R4

New paper alert! Excited to share our latest work on the importance of inflammatory #chemokine receptors (iCCR, aka the best chemokine receptors) in mounting an optimal T cell response to #influenza infection. Please share, happy to discuss!

Brilliant time as always at our @crgglasgow.bsky.social away day at @sceneuog.bsky.social

So excited to share our first neuro focused paper from the lab, we show that CXCL4 (PF4) is transported into the brain by proteoglycans within the endothelial glycocalyx and that GAG binding also mediates the pro neurogenesis effects of CXCL4. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Some nice new reserach from @mariekedoesscience.bsky.social and @crgglasgow.bsky.social studying the inflammatory CCR locus and immune responses to influenza. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Poster day! Please come and chat later at poster 2036 #ksmyeloid25

Share all your papers!!! Give descriptions so people will engage. Scientists should not rely on pubmed and talks alone to share their information.

Our 1st BlueSky post and it's our lab's newest preprint! Please read and share and let us know any of your thoughts 😊 #chemokine #immunosky
