Huge congratulations to @sheencr.bsky.social and colleagues at the Ardwick Climate Action Group on their Health Creation Alliance award for “Best health creation approach to seeking and using community insight”, sponsored by AHRC/UKRI. bit.ly/4opP11w #SciCom #Pollution #HealthPolicy

Great to work with budding young scientists as they designed experiments to investigate air pollution! @exposomeimmunology.bsky.social @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social @fbmh-uom.bsky.social

A great afternoon celebrating the award of our MRC CoRE in person. We heard about projects spanning our discovery pipeline, from ExWAS and mechanistic barrier immunology, to potential therapeutic angles for IBD and machine learning for diagnostics. #exposome #immunology

Excited to share this MRC DTP PhD opportunity with our lab, Kevin Couper and Kat Koyte to explore immune microbial cross talk in cutaneous Crohns’s disease. Info here: 🧪

Our single cell & spatial omics #bioinformatics course starts on Monday! 📚 You’ll get live training on Zoom & access to self-paced materials to help you keep up with the latest in single cell and spatial methods. Don't forget, BSI members get 50% off! bit.ly/4emxfIt

Allergen-induced airway matrix remodeling in mice can be prevented or reversed by targeting chitinase-like proteins | Science Immunology www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 🎉🎉 @hetompkins.bsky.social @drtesutherland.bsky.social @mattoburgess.bsky.social @james-ep.bsky.social @profjudiallen.bsky.social

New paper alert! 🎉 Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Here we show that intestinal bacterial, helminth and fungal challenges polarise CD4 T cell populations in the dural meninges.

We have a new Postdoc position advertised as part of our recent long-term Wellcome funding to join an established Postdoc and technician. I’m so excited to explore the role of the glycocalyx in CNS-inflammation. So many tools and expertise to work with! www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

Standing room only for the entertaining and touching inaugural lectures of Prof Matt Hepworth and Prof Cath Lawrence today, featuring surprise cameos from Rasputin, an angry goose, and a fondly remembered comic book character. Congratulations! 🥳

🎓 6x fully-funded 4-year PhD studentships 🎓 We are recruiting our first cohort of PhD students to start Oct 2026. Students will shape their own projects within supervisory teams spanning the universities of Manchester & Oxford. www.findaphd.com/phds/program/mrc-core-in-exposome-immunology/?p6899

WE ARE HIRING! www.manchester.ac.uk/exposome-jobs Vacancies inc. 3x PDRA positions, 2x data scientists and a Transition Fellowship in Air Pollution. Join us as we embark on a 14 year journey to understand how the exposome impacts immune regulation and chronic inflammation. #hiring #immunosky
