Second talk of the PhD ✅ Thank you so much to the @london-immuno.bsky.social for selecting my abstract on sex hormone/chromosome driven mechanisms of cSLE risk #LIG2025 #LIG25 🧬 🦠 @georgearobinson.bsky.social @ciurtinlab.bsky.social

This was a fantastic celebration yesterday - thanks to the @thelisterinstitute.bsky.social and @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social and the wider division of Medicine for all their support 😊

Exciting new position in #arrdept alumni @madhvimenon.bsky.social lab 🧬

💉 Antiphospholipid Syndrome (#APS) is an autoimmune disorder that requires our urgent attention. 🔬 Thanks to your support, we've been able to fund researchers like Dr Thomas McDonnell. His ground-breaking work is advancing our understanding of APS, paving the way for better treatments.

Thank you so much! 😁 #EULAR2025 was an amazing first conference talk and I am so pleased and grateful to have been featured in the highlights as well!

Nailed it! 👏

It's official! Congratulations to everyone selected for the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS) #RisingStars2025 Cohort! I can't wait to meet you all at #IUIS2025 and share our research! Thank you to @iuis-online.bsky.social and @britsocimm.bsky.social for the nomination @ucl.ac.uk

🧠 IFNγ alters the immuno-/proteasome, thus glycolysis surges, oxidation rises, and axons die in models of MS. Blocking the proteasome swap or glycolysis saves nerves. Impressive work by our esteemed colleague @manuelfriese.bsky.social in @cp-cell.bsky.social‬: doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... 🧪‪

It’s #EULAR2025 week! 🌟 We’ve got a EULAR sandwich 🥪 this year with me presenting on type I interferon signalling in cSLE on Wednesday afternoon (4.30-6pm, room 6.4), then @heather--cross.bsky.social presenting on sex hormones and cSLE risk on Saturday (12-1.15pm, room A1) See you in Barcelona! 🇪🇸

Made it! #EULAR2025 I’m looking forward to presenting later today on a novel approach to investigating type I interferon signalling in cSLE. Interrogating different signalling levels gives unique pieces of information and new disease endotypes. Hopefully see you there to hear more!

Inspiring talk from the amazing Jess Manson! 🙌 @jury-lab.bsky.social

It's time for our next ARR dept research spotlight💡with 1st year PhD student @heather--cross.bsky.social! Heather is working in @georgearobinson.bsky.social's lab with @ciurtinlab.bsky.social to uncover the impact of sex and gender ⚧️ on metabolism and its relevance to autoimmune conditions💥

That looks worrying!!

Enjoy #EULAR @heather--cross.bsky.social great opportunity to present your exciting work on sex hormones and immunity

Congratulations @georgearobinson.bsky.social well deserved

We got an upgrade!!💥

Such a pleasure to collaborate with @ciurtinlab.bsky.social - she is a an amazing clinician and scientist - looking forward to submitting on our next research manuscript soon.....watch this space!!

Great to have the reminder of how exciting this department is. So much great science and so much potential for more! @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social

Really interesting work- congratulations. Take a look @mcdonnelllab.bsky.social @georgearobinson.bsky.social

Many thanks to all our collaborators for their support with this project. The RNA-seq data we analysed from patients who had received auto-SCT were originally published in the paper below where you’ll find further analysis and context www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

After a bit of a break it was great to meet with @inespinedatorra.bsky.social and her team working on cardiovascular risk in women pre and post menopause. Next time it’s the turn of @georgearobinson.bsky.social @heather--cross.bsky.social to present.

And would like to say that this could not have been done without the expertise of Maura Griffin and Andrew Nicolaides in vascular scanning and the 100 patients with SLE who kindly consented to scanning.

Welcome Heather! Great to have more members of our department here on #ImmunoSky for the researcher spotlight content 😆

very impressed @bcellsrosser.bsky.social (of course about the great science) but also the delicious rhubarb....😋😋 rhubarb crumble!!

Great collaboration with @inespinedatorra.bsky.social @georgearobinson.bsky.social @anisurrahman.bsky.social @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/...

Well done Team Robinson!
