Exciting news! Did you hear? 🎉 The UK Glia 2026 meeting is coming up on 8–9 June. Registration open now, abstracts close 16 Jan. 🔗 www.physoc.org/events/uk-gl.... The next speaker highlight belongs to Nicola Hamilton-Whitaker from Kings College London. www.kcl.ac.uk/people/nicol...

Well done @nabinapun.bsky.social getting your Radnet @cruk-mi.bsky.social @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social @mcrcnews.bsky.social @mcrcellmatrix.bsky.social PhD work out

Fantastic opportunity (available for both UK and international students) to do a PhD on the assembly of RNA viruses with @artisplicer.bsky.social - please share (and/or apply)! www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

New paper out in iScience @cellpress.bsky.social We show that #sand_fly biting reprograms skin fibroblasts, making them more permissive to virus infection => #fibroblasts aren’t bystanders, they help define severity/clinical outcome to infection AND #vector biting is key 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.is...

We all know vaccines target the pathogen, but can you also target the vector? 📢 in a new paper out today in Vaccines, we show that a vaccine targeting mosquito salivary peptides, AGSv-PLUS, enhances human skin immune response to biting. Open access: www.mdpi.com/2076-393X/13... 1/6

We now have a very exciting technician post advertised as part of our long term Wellcome Trust funded team investigating the role of the glycocalyx during CNS inflammation. Supporint the lab, developing glycan analysis and research experience www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

⚠️ Half of commercial antibodies miss their target! So how do you pick the right one for your experiment? Here’s the solution 👉 Antibody characterization data (all tested in KO cells) are now available at: 🔗 onlygoodantibodies.co.uk Tested by @ycharos.bsky.social & @oga-community.bsky.social

See you Thursday 18th for our first seminar of the series with the inspiring @priyashah.bsky.social from @ucdavis.bsky.social with her talk “Harder, better, faster, stronger: integrating virology and engineering to drive discovery”. All welcome! email us for the zoom link.

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.

Very exciting project, feel free to reach out if you’re interested!

Congrats @julieworrell.bsky.social and @immunememorylab.bsky.social, it’s been great to be a small part of this. Looking forward to seeing what’s next!

Can’t wait until the full results of my mouse brain spatial transcriptomics are ready, grateful to be part of this! @mvls-srf.bsky.social have been excellent (as always), 10/10 would recommend

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!

Does uneven vaccination coverage really decrease disease control? @khampson.bsky.social &co use fine-grained data of 20 years of dog #vaccination in Tanzania to show that reducing coverage gaps does indeed lower #rabies incidence; connectivity drives transmission @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4k4GL4G
