Great start to #ENDO2026! Enjoyed the excellent session on #AdiposeTissue biology and was pleased to present my poster on adipose-expressed tau in #metabolism and #thermogenesis. Looking forward to more great science and discussions! #Endocrinology #NTU #BBSRC @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social

Arrived in Chicago for #ENDO2026! The poster had its first viewing at border control before the conference even started 😂. Excited to present our work and hear some great talks. Thanks to #BBSRC, @socendocrinology.bsky.social & @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social for making this possible. #NTU

Fantastic visit to Indiana University’s Department of Biology, supported by a @ukri.org #BBSRC travel grant and @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social. Highlights included learning new #Drosophila metabolic techniques, presenting my work, and visiting the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center. #NTUMetabolic

The final published version of our paper is now available in Cell Communication and Signaling. We investigated how #miR-10b-5p regulates adipocyte lineage commitment and differentiation through targeting of #Gata6 & #Tubby doi.org/10.1186/s129... @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social

Great few days in Harrogate at #SFEBES2026 presenting our work on how miR-10b-5p promotes #BrownAdipocyte differentiation & the #thermogenic program in #WhiteAdipose tissue. Lots of inspiring science and great discussions throughout the #conference. #Metabolism #miRNA @socendocrinology.bsky.social

Excited to present our work at #SFEBES2026 on how miR-10b-5p influences adipocyte #differentiation and #thermogenic programming in #WhiteAdipose tissue 🔥 We uncover a novel miR-10b–Tub regulatory axis shaping #BrownAdiposeTissue physiology. #Metabolism #Thermogenesis #miRNA @ntumeta.bsky.social

Thanks for the inspiration! That is a cut above! 😄✂️

The #drosophila #longevity assay survives #Christmas. I may not. Happy holidays 🎄🪰

Loved seeing the #ISTeC Fuddle bringing everyone together to celebrate the holidays 🎉 Wishing everyone happy holidays and a great New Year from all of us — here’s to a bright 2025! ✨🎄 #PhD #Post-doc #NTU #SHiMR

Great talk from Prof Delphine Boche on #neuroinflammation and #microglia in #Alzheimer’s disease! #SHIMR_NTU #NTUMetabolic #NTU

Happy Birthday, Rosalind Franklin. She captured an X-ray diffraction image of DNA and stated that a helical structure was probable. Watson and Crick then created a detailed model based on her results. They initially received credit for the discovery and were awarded the Nobel Prize after her death.🧪

Couldn't be more right! 🤣 @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social @nurudeenrasaq.bsky.social

Was digging around for #Drosophila content and stumbled on this gem. 100% going to try this!

🖤 farewell

Great to see #NTUMetabolic @ #PhysiologyofObesity2025 w/ Dr @fearoncassidy.bsky.social & Prof @tonygoldstone.bsky.social . @physoc.bsky.social @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @rebeccadumbell.bsky.social @ntuneuro.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social @nurudeenrasaq.bsky.social @nkalender.bsky.social

Had a great time at the #PhysiologyofObesity2025 #conference! So proud to represent Mark Christian's lab group and present our research on #microRNA control of #BrownFat! #Metabolism #NTU #SHIMR_NTU @ntumeta.bsky.social @physoc.bsky.social @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @nkalender.bsky.social

Honored to be at #PhysiologyofObesity2025 @uniofnottingham.bsky.social representing @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social. Sharing our work on #BrownFat -enriched #microRNAs in #lipodystrophy and #obesity. Poster up today, come by! #SHIMR_NTU @physoc.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social @ntumeta.bsky.social

Had a great time at #SHIMR2025 at #NTU this week. Proud to represent @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social group with talk and posters. A brilliant mix of talks on #Bioinformatics, #BigData, #Metabolism, #Cancer, #Brainhealth, and #Antimicrobials. #SHIMR_NTU #NTU_Metabolic

🫁 Dr Maria Pia Savoca on exploring EV-associated TG2 as a potential #biomarker for #IdiopathicPulmonary fibrosis. A session full of cutting-edge #TranslationalScience. #PulmonaryFibrosis #SHIMR_NTU #NTU

An honour to present our research on miRNA regulation during #BrownFat development and #browning of #WhiteFat at #SHiMR2025 symposium. Grateful for the opportunity and inspiring science all around! #adipogenesis #SHIMR_NTU #NTU_Metabolic @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social

We also heard presentations from three early career researchers: 🦠 Dr @danwhiley.bsky.social on #HelicobacterSuis in pigs and its #zoonotic implications. #SHIMR_NTU #NTU

Next, Dr @martineurosci.bsky.social #BBSRC Fellowship Awardee, shared her research journey into #glia-to-#neuron communication in the #brain. #SHIMR_NTU #neuroscience #NTU @ntuneuro.bsky.social

An inspiring afternoon session at #SHIMR2025 Symposium. Chaired by Dr Marion Hogg, the session began with Professor Tom Wishart offering a look into the proteomic profiling of #synapses, exploring how molecular vulnerability might shape #neurological stability. #SHIMR_NTU @ntuneuro.bsky.social

Kicking off #SHIMR2025 Symposium, with director of #SHIMR_NTU, Professor Nik Morton, delivering the opening remarks, setting the tone for a day full of exciting research. #NTUMetabolic #NTU #NTU_Research

Amazing science at the #SHIMR2025 symposium, from #BrainHealth to #BigData. #NTUMetabolic #SHIMR_NTU @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social

#VitaminB12 deficiency is on the rise - and a key culprit is our reliance on #ultra-processed foods. @a_adaikala explains how #B12deficiency in #pregnancy can raise the risk of #health problems for both mother and baby. #B12 #NTUMetabolic #SHIMRatNTU @uk.theconversation.com

I was delighted to host former colleague Dr Rajesh Pandey at Nottingham Trent today, after not having seen each other in person for about 6 years!

Fantastic visit from Dr Rajesh Pandey (INGEN-HOPE) at #NTU #SHiMR! He shared insights on using #multiomics to study individual responses to #microbial #infection. Big thanks to host @rebeccadumbell.bsky.social ! #NTUMetabolic

Great to host Dr. Nimesh Mody at #NTU’s SHiMR! He shared exciting work on MASLD targets, Fenretinide’s role in insulin sensitivity, and AI-driven diabetes diagnostics. Big thanks to hosts Nik Morton & Zoi Michailidou! #NTUMetabolic

A really interesting session on Metabolism, Obesity and Diabetes research this afternoon at #SfeBES2025. Genetics, olive oil, hungry dogs and novel cell models. @socendocrinology.bsky.social @ntuneuro.bsky.social
