I’m thrilled to share my postdoc work and the first paper from the McKinley Lab! 🎉 @karalmckinley.bsky.social We built the first transgenic model of menstruation in mice. We used it to uncover how the endometrium organizes and sheds during menstruation. 🧪 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧵

Delighted to have given our annual prizes to these two rising stars in Neuroendocrinology 👏🏻

What an honour to receive the 2025 Thesis prize of @sneuroendo.bsky.social 🤩 Huge thanks to the scientific committee, to the Fondation Obélisque and to my incredible PhD supervisors @francoisleulier.bsky.social and @filipedevadder.bsky.social 🙏

Congratulations to first authors @ameliejoly.bsky.social and @lucasrebiffe.bsky.social for taking this project forward. A big thanks to @frm-officiel.bsky.social and @agencerecherche.bsky.social for funding this work, and @igflyon.bsky.social for making the right environment for the research.

In normally growing juveniles, semaglutide improves glucose control without affecting growth. But in stunted mice, it further impairs linear growth, revealing a key interplay between energy metabolism and the somatotropic axis during development. Mechanistic, not clinical!

Delighted to share that our work has just been accepted in the Journal of the Endocrine Society 🤩 Ever wondered if semaglutide can interfere with growth? Check it out! 👇👇

Impressive talks from our ECRs for a symposium that they organized at our annual conference #SNE2025 🤩😍. Many thanks @jne-editor.bsky.social!
