Truly an honor to be invited by #OARSI and @oacjournal.bsky.social to summarize all the amazing work in the genetics, genomics, and epigenetics of #osteoarthritis over the last year. A tough job with many great papers not included, but our review is now online: www.oarsijournal.com/article/S106...

Grateful @natrevchem.nature.com for the opportunity to share my #labdaptations with the scientific community! Check out the article here: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Also linked on my website, labdaptations.com

Super excited and thrilled to see this work come out in Nature today. 🥹@tdcapellini.bsky.social Thank you so much for your amazing mentorship throughout the project, and to all my co-authors who helped take this work to the next level.

A little late to sharing this, but we've recently published a report providing an overview of the research discussed at last year's OA epigenetics workshop in Toronto! A brilliant collaborative effort; read it here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Many congratulations to the newly elected chairs @thehopefulscie1.bsky.social , @jackbroberts.bsky.social for GRS Cartilage 2027.. Great to see the GRS is in safe hands..

We're advertising a fully-funded BBSRC PhD studentship @newcastleuni.bsky.social to work on understanding the biology of COLGALT2 in cartilage using/developing cool model systems w/ Dr James Henstock at @northumbriauni.bsky.social. Pls reach out if you are interested in applying! bit.ly/3DiqHN9

1/11 Pleased to see our article by the terrific Dr. Daniel Richard finally out in January 9th the journal Cell: www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

We are advertising a fully funded PhD project starting September 2025. We’ve been excited for this for a long time- biologically unravelling the results of genetic studies to understand the mechanism of cartilage breakdown conferred by SNPs. Reach out if interested! www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Here it is! The first paper from my lab is out today in #AJHG In brief, we quantified the changing methylome through a large window of prenatal human articular cartilage development and identified methylation QTLs co-localising with 24 OA risk signals www.cell.com/ajhg/fulltex...

Yesterday I successfully defended my PhD thesis! Massively grateful to my supervisory team Prof John Loughlin and @grainofscience.bsky.social for their mentorship, guidance and support over the last few years. And thank you to @mcdeandres.bsky.social for making the long journey over from A Coruña!!

Today we have the seminar of @mcdeandres.bsky.social who has very kindly stayed on to tell us all about the world of chondrocytes 😃

Congratulations Dr @jackbroberts.bsky.social! Very proud to witness the first in person viva of one of my students (I know you weren’t really mine but I’ve claimed you!). Thanks so much to @mcdeandres.bsky.social and Luke Gaughan for examining 🥂
