Amazing study, great data, a must read! 👏🎉

Altered B cell activation contributes to the immunopathogenesis of childhood arthritis-associated uveitis @nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I am delighted to introduce the 'ImmunoPause' consortium. This is a collection of immunologists who are working on understanding how the immune system changes during the menopause. An important yet understudied research area. immunopause.my.canva.site#home

Wow! What a week.. our #BSI25 Congress in stats: 3 invited talks 3 selected for abstracts for short talks 1 lunch industry talk and… 14 posters! Not bad for a department less than 1 yr old 👏🏼

Yes I’m reposting myself! Vote!!!

And we've officially reached the end of #BSI25 🤩 Thank you @britsocimm.bsky.social cannot wait for the next one! Now let's go put all we learnes into practice 😁🙌

Always a pleasure to catch up on collaborators work and see what they do with tissues we share 😊 great work Chloe and cannot wait to see what comes next! 👏🤩 #BSI25

Incredibly proud of @hollysedgwick.bsky.social for a fantastic presentation at the Bright Sparks in Immunology PhD session #BSI25

Second @bcellsrosser.bsky.social talk #BSI25 and so proud to have helped with this amazing project for Vicky's PhD! It's all about the gut ofc 😁👏👏

Congrats to @bcellsrosser.bsky.social et al. for one of @arthritisuk.bsky.social's top research outputs for 2025. 🗳️Now vote Click below and choose 5️⃣ (other papers are available, but today we are unashamedly biased and proud of Lizzy's excellent work) www.arthritis-uk.org/our-research...

Congratulations to the authors! Find the original paper here by @hlpeks.bsky.social et al. 👉 rupress.org/jem/article/...

Now more than usual (since I'm considering applying for a sex-differences based fellowship) I enjoyed and appreciated @ciurtinlab.bsky.social talk #BSI25! We really really need to sex-dissegregate our data!! ♂️♀️

Very excited to see this very fresh and preliminary data out in the wild #BSI25 and hope many got to see and appreciate - very well done Ben!! 👏💪 @bcellsrosser.bsky.social

Loving #BSI25, especially @ciurtinlab.bsky.social and @emmaschambers.bsky.social highlighting our paper in @jem.org is one of #ArthritisUK top research output of ‘25! If you have 5 minutes, give us a vote (number 5) below, sex differences in the immune system: www.arthritis-uk.org/our-research...

Too many good talks so hard to choose #BSI25! For now let's see how our @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social HoD Derek Gilroy presents the great story of @oliviabracken.bsky.social 's PhD 👏🤩

Excited for all the amazing talks at the #BSI25! Here we go with the most special of them - #BrightSparks 👏 PS this venue is insane!!

Left too early today for #BSI25 so slight change in the 'walk me out' pic 😁 we'll take the Bluey jammie no worries and here's to all the amazing immunology from all across the country 🤩🥰

Delighted to share our new @natrevrheum.nature.com article: “Insights into the pathogenesis of childhood-onset SLE in the past decade” Grateful to an amazing team of co-authors and editors for building and shaping this work. We hope it helps the field and guides future discoveries.

Less than 3 weeks until our final report launch event 9th Dec. (London) 10am We will be welcoming a fantastic panel: 🌟Jo O'Leary (UKRI) 🌟Sara Mole (UCL) 🌟John Tregoning (Imperial) 🌟Katie Perry (Daphne Trust) 🌟Jennie Evans (BSI) 🌟Ilaria Meazzini (RSC) Register here: www.carersinstemm.co.uk

Join us at the Wellness Walkthrough: A Community Health Fair this 📆 Saturday, 1st November (🕛 12–4 PM) at 📍Castlemere Community Centre, Rochdale! 🔬 @madhvimenon.bsky.social will be there to discuss her research exploring how the immune system drives #COPD and other chronic diseases. #ImmunoSky

Fantastic meeting in Paris yesterday with @sexdiffimmunity.bsky.social @efis-immunology.bsky.social. Was an absolute pleasure to share our data and make new connections in this important space ✨

I am so proud to say that our paper is now available at Aging Cell. There is a paucity of data as to how the menopause impacts your immune system, and the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the menopause on monocyte phenotype and function. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Rosser team takes its fake blood on the road! Olive oil prep and a hand crank centrifuge as our primary learning tool 😹 thanks to the @medresfdn.bsky.social and @newscientist.com live for a rewarding experience 👀

Today we meet face to face for the first time!

Catch these fantastic session openers from @heather--cross.bsky.social and @bcellsrosser.bsky.social this morning, both presenting sex differences #immunosky research from @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social!

Barrier sites under the microscope! 🔬 Discover how our skin, gut & lungs fight infection, heal, and keep our microbiota happy. Don’t miss this session at #BSI25! PS. Early bird registration closes on Wednesday 22 October ⚡

Sunday the 19th - Go go go!! 🔬🧑‍🔬❤️

My husband and I are both in STEMM so to help us with the guilt of travelling for conferences we made it into a cute tradition of being walked to the bus/train by our cute lil helper (who is 4 TODAY 🥹🥹)

@bcellsrosser.bsky.social shining some more needed light on one of the worst rheumatological conditions out there, with a very very strong female bias - yes many luckily reach remission but what about those that don't? what is the cause anyway...? Read read!

The autoimmune disease lupus, which affects mainly women, can have wide-ranging impacts on health and quality of life.

Selena Gomez has shared her experiences living with #lupus since 2015 - writes Foundation-funded researcher @bcellsrosser.bsky.social for @uk.theconversation.com. To learn more, you can meet Dr Lizzy Rosser at our New Scientist Live stand (C20) on 18-19 October! shorturl.at/BusFG

We now have over 600 followers! Hello everyone from our new UCL department! Give some of our members a follow when you have a chance (we’ll post the in the thread below!) and stay tuned for our research updates 🧬 🎇 😃

Very well done Nina!! Hope you enjoyed your time with us 😊👏

Amazing fantastic great talks so far @embo.org Barrier ImmuniTy 🤩 what better place to learn all about B/T cells in the gut/lung/liver/bladder/brain - eeeeeverywhere!! #EMBOBarrierTissues

And the send-off from the cutest helper tradition continues 🥹 Off I go to Basel for what's hopefully an amazing conference all about mucosal lymphocytes 😍 #EMBObarrierTissues @bcellsrosser.bsky.social

Here's to the new era in rheumatology research!! You have to give this a read it's as thought-provoking as it is exciting 🤩 @bcellsrosser.bsky.social @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We have a new research assistant role co-supervised with @cjohansson-lab.bsky.social Working on #vaccines and #immunology www.jobs.ac.uk/job/DOH045/r... @imperialmed.bsky.social

@thelisterinstitute.bsky.social - a great experience talking about our group’s research for the Lister blog. Working with children and young people is a privilege and I’d ask every translational scientist to ask the question… is your research age inclusive? ✨ lister-institute.org.uk/the-bigger-p...

🌟 Got exciting immunology research to share? There’s still time to submit your abstract for BSI Congress! #BSI25 Present your findings to 1,500+ experts, grow your network, and spark new collaborations that can boost your career. Submit by 3 Sept ➡️ https://bit.ly/3UfF6i5

Nowosad Lab will be recruiting postdocs soon. Reach out if you are interested!

So fantastic to see this work out @shipam.bsky.social, with Prof Michael Ehrenstein and Dr Dan McCluskey. This new departmental paper shows the utility of anti-dsDNA IgA2 and IgA2+ B cells as a biomarker for response to Belimumab in SLE. Read in @cp-cell.bsky.social journal - Cell Reports Medicine.

#ListerFellow Lizzy Rosser's research into juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and uveitis is driven by curiosity—and shaped by the voices of young patients and their families. 🧠 Comment how connection with patients and their families makes a difference 👇 📖 lister-institute.org.uk/the-bigger-p...

Are scientists citing papers without reading them? #scientificpublishing #AcademicChatter #peerreview @science.org www.science.org/content/arti...

A team that museums together succeeds together 😁❤️ Forever grateful to have the best boss 🙏🙌

Very proud of Dr Beth Jebson - talking about our work at the #EBCnetwork summer school. Great initiative for ECR in the B cell field.
