Delighted to share our new pre-print from PhD student Ziyun Zhang joint with @tracyh9494.bsky.social demonstrating that lung alveolar macrophages have a dense glycocalyx and interstitial macrophages do not, @mcrcellmatrix.bsky.social @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Read about Becker PhD student @macaulayturner.bsky.social BBSRC PIPS placement with Translation Manchester working on tracking the impact of their funded projects, sitting on a review panel and developing new skills in data analysis 👇 #ImmunoSky www.translation.manchester.ac.uk/2025/01/07/h...

👏Also a big thank you to our amazing volunteers today @hollysedgwick.bsky.social @iashiamulholland.bsky.social Ziyun Zhang and Chiara Tontini!

We're here at the @asthmaandlung.org.uk #OurManchesterOurAir event at Manchester Art Gallery Visit our stand to play 🦠 Splat the Virus! 🧫try your hand at pipetting 🫁see how a peak flow meter works + learn from our experts about how air pollution impacts the immune system. #ImmunoSky

Very excited about the @asthmaandlung.org.uk #OurManchesterOurAir event tomorrow from 12pm at MCR Art Gallery! Visit our stand to learn about the impact of air pollution on the immune system & lung health + panel discussion with @sheencr.bsky.social Register👇 www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/our-manche...

We're here at Manchester Museum for the #BSW25 Science Fair. Visit our stand to learn all about how our bodies get rid of viruses! We have a number of exciting games including: 🫟 Splat The Virus! 🦠 Neutralise The Virus 🌀 Our *brand new* immune cell spinning wheel game!

Our final day at @britsciassoc.bsky.social Science Fair at Manchester Museum is now complete! We had a very busy stand and it was fantastic to have so many great conversations with students interested in immunology and studying biology at A-Level. 👏A BIG thank you to all of our amazing volunteers!

It was a pleasure to take part in this and to remind young minds that a career in science is open to anyone!

#BeckerProfile @iashiamulholland.bsky.social From taking a 12-year break after high school to raising a family & working in industry, to researching lung inflammation & the endothelial glycocalyx in the Dyer Lab - read about Iashia's journey into academia! 👇 sites.manchester.ac.uk/lydia-becker...

Nicely introduced @becky-dodd.bsky.social! New lab pre-print 🎉 explores a new approach of bringing ECM analysis into high-dimensional spatial datasets in the context of lung allergic pathology....cell-cell communication is important but don't forget the ECM! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Skipping over to blue sky with happy news - the new pre-print from @drtesutherland.bsky.social lab is online now. Immune cells, matrix (🩷) and more. So grateful to be involved - huge effort from the lead authors - especially @james-ep.bsky.social 👏

Delighted to share our latest in @discovimmunol.bsky.social with @kathelse.bsky.social Holly Shiels, Iris Mair & Susanne Shultz. Climate change, pollution and changing land use impact immune function, driving chronic inflammatory disease and create exposure to infections (new & old). 🧪 #Immunosky

So pleased to share the first study from out @cruk-mi.bsky.social led by Nabina Pun with Mark Travis, Tim Illidge and Urszula Cytlak www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Our paper is out - How (Eco)immunology can augment global EcoHealth programmes: opportunities, needs, and challenges academic.oup.com/discovimmuno...
