Me and the LN2 Saturdays … topping The Little Lab’s biobank … University of York

Thank you all for the kind donations given so far for Quanta’s “Paws for PCUK” #MarchforMen walkies. We are so very grateful for your support for @prostatecanceruk.bsky.social for everything they do in being there for anyone affected by prostate cancer & to support research — to save men’s lives.

Quanta training this weekend for Prostate Cancer UK’s #marchformen. Earliest-possible detection, easily accessible and accurate in discerning aggressive prostate cancer is urgently needed for life-saving, best outcomes for men. Please donate to Prostate Cancer UK (QR+link👇🙏❤️).

My little pup Quanta is doing her “Paws for PCUK” walkies for @prostatecanceruk.bsky.social March for Men June 14. Any donation would be so very gratefully received. Thank you!! You can see her in her PCUK outfit, read her blurb & sponsor her here: marchformen.prostatecanceruk.org/fundraising/...

Two beauties recently seen in a faraway night garden. The beauty of humility (the white orchid) and the beauty of resilience (the white water lily).

Oh, the dreaminess of the low buttery sky leading to the pinks of the sunset And my eyes travelling along the line of the ancient wall Upon which the daffodils present as small yellow stars This is the beauty of York This eve, layered on the pulsating palette of spring

Crazy early so … Let’s get to work! #prostatecancer research. The Little Lab, York.

We are looking for a four-year funded PhD student position in extreme-weather prediction using AI/ML at the University of Manchester (@officialuom.bsky.social). I am pleased to be part of the supervisory team with Prof Richard Allmendinger and Dr Michele Caprio. www.findaphd.com/phds/project...

Just wow! This webinar was incredible. Really touched and inspired hearing from Mr and Mrs Flanagan, and the Newcastle team rock well beyond stellar! Thanks so much for this, and to Hayley and the PCUK team for doing such an incredible job with hosting / organising.

Really looking forward to this! @prostatecanceruk.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZIw...

Oh my!!! My favourite flower is coming up in the garden … and this year there are so many of them. The very sweet, wild daffodil. Small, with such beautiful, translucent and delicate petals ❤️

📰 In the news today, GP and prostate cancer researcher Dr Sam Merriel says patients "may not get the full picture" from at-home PSA tests. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

There is Sidney Nolan Riding On his brown horse There is Ned Kelly arriving On the horizon Where the dust is red Of course And there is a desk With someone trying To write the words Of ideas That have only ever Previously been thought YH Thank you for gifting me Sidney Nolan, Richard Keesing

Here’s a video of the “tuck in” … what we describe as filling the LN2 Biobank in “The Little Lab” and getting it ready for the weekend. It is one of the greatest privileges of my life to have “The Little Lab” as a HTA-accredited laboratory dedicated to prostate cancer research. Happy weekend all!

As one day turns to become another… New efforts in prostate cancer research. Can the molecular signatures of what is in this Eppendorf tube help for early detection…?

World Cancer Day 2025 🎗️ Because love is the greatest motivator there is.. We WILL NOT stop

This is my latest published article about having a positive mindset whilst living with stage 4 prostate cancer prostatecancer.net/living/posit...

I think of the wonderful people I’ve met from the cancer community, our community..As a cancer patient talking to others in the waiting room, on social medial, at work, home, at random. In the U.K. 1 in 2 of us will be diagnosed, with major inequities worldwide. We have to do whatever we can. #hope

Prostate-cancer cell line being cultured in my lab. New questions. New mechanistic enquiry.

What new insights will emerging technologies uncover about #prostatecancer? Using advanced #Ramanspectroscopy and #machinelearning, @ellieelectron.bsky.social and team identify targetable disease states in metastatic prostate cancer. Grab a ☕ and read: nature.com/articles/s41...

Pleased to announce our newest publication—first for 2025. Here we use Raman + unsupervised machine learning via Kohonen self-organising maps to uncover, first-time, mechanistic subcellular linkages in metastatic prostate cancer ripe for disruptive treatments. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Wow! ❤️ View out towards the River Ouse ❄️

Oh just a normal Saturday afternoon spot of fun… 🥸 (!!)

Such a beauty! My sweet little dog. Look how happy she is ❤️ New Year’s Eve 2024.

🎼🎶🎵 “Good cell cultures had been grown A week from Christmas evedom Lots of secrets to be shown In images crisp to reveal them” (To the tune of Good King W… you know the one 🤣).

This beauty so very close. Needed to be shared. Today at the University of York.

Reposting this opportunity of a fully-funded PhD position in prostate cancer research. The December 13 deadline is nigh …

Foreboding sky and the River Ouse swollen from the weather over the weekend … looking out towards Lendal Bridge this morning. #York

🧪 Early last week … prostate cells awoken from frozen slumber🎗️

First of December and it’s been a little bit cold in the lab of late … 🥶☃️ ❄️
