Congratulations: This image is absolutely stunning Do yourself a favour 🦋- take a moment - open the pic - dive into the beauty of microscope for a moment - just to really remember and pause in awe at the elegance of nature ❤️ (even if you do get #allergies!!) #microscopy #talent #nature #science

What an incredibly poignant piece of reporting by the BBC. Lots to think about. #generosity #reciprocity #altruism of the highest order. #future_docs #science 🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Any chance we think this might actually work? Or are we just compounding our doom by splitting the pack even further … ? Answers on a postcard.

This piqued my interest … Will there be a sting in the tail??

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

#research #biomed_researchers #diabetes_researchers Just putting my head above the parapet to ask : How many have returned to X? And if you have: why? And if you haven’t and 🦋 isn’t meeting your needs - where else do you go most regularly? (Genuinely curious question!)

By betraying his voters so comprehensively and so soon, Keir Starmer has done us a favour. He has given us 4 years to design the government we want. In this week's column I explain how it can be done. There's massive potential, but we need to start now. 🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

#topviewedarticle in Diabetic Medicine in 2024 (n top 10% anyway) 🧪🚀✨ This paper was all in my voice! Too long but 😍. It was the first commentary Ive written about the science I’m so passionate about! (I do still need to learn about white space!!!) onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

As an example: Trump administration cuts $4m to Princeton’s climate research funding: The scope of this madness is 🤯 For all the scientists in America affected…and the work for the rest of us that they do…I weep. I can only think we fight it with hope, patience, and continued rebellion ….

Still so excited by our paper! Multidisciplinary, creative, innovative & fun: this was “doing” science at its best 🚀🧪 Helpful that it a) reveals (quantitatively) that human #islets retain a conserved mantle-core structure & b) offers a nuanced tool to compare the subtleties of data distributions.

Humbled by the women in science before me: 🧪🔬🥼🚀

Calling all... 🔬 Microscopists 💻 BioImage Analysts 👩‍🔬 Life Scientists 📅 Save the Date The 5th edition of the Crick BioImage Analysis Symposium will take place on November 24/25th 2025. More details to follow... #CBIAS2025

So sad to read : How is it possible that this is happening to science in 2025 !!!!?????

Hey DiabGeeks - this 👇🏼looks like it will be an extraordinary tool to add to the diabetes researcher armoury 🧪🔬 Congratulations 🚀🙌🏼 #devbio Hope it flies!

@breakthrought1duk.bsky.social Looking forward to saying hello!

Hugely excited to share a truly cross-disciplinary project examining human #islet_architecture in health&in #type_1_diabetes #T1D: combining #machine_learning, elegant #mathematical_modelling in whole section, fixed pancreatic samples stained for all 5 islet hormones: 1/2 🧪🔬🚀 doi.org/10.1007/s001...

I purchased a microscope I really like last August: 300k machine. Today I learned that support for windows 10 machines is ending and we will have to upgrade to windows 11. Company is asking for 11K for an “upgrade kit”. Wanna prevent waste of taxpayer money? This is predatory.

Oooh and more positive news … I believe we can curate our lives - and it starts with what we chase in the media… and social media! Isn’t that why we stepped away from “Ex”… - you’re welcome! 🥰

Grist to the mill …. Work from a great team, excellent use of tech, and beautifully written! Great paper - really enjoyed it! 🔬🧪🚀 #beta_cells #islet_architecture #diabetes_research #creative_science

Many of you who know me are familiar with my abiding belief that the right food can help just about anything: This work is a shocking indictment of progressive failures which, of course, are complex; but may also be a pretty good beginning for more visibility of the problem #health #responsibility🙏🏼

Wow: just very very cool.

Sorry - I know this is a place for exciting science - but in a world that increasingly needs hope… there is this image …🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼🩷💪🏼🫵🏼

What a lovely feature… where does 🙏🏼take you? Or 💞? Not that 🚀🧪🔬isn’t super cool!

Happy Thursday Folks: Another tool for exploring the pancreas is always exciting 💞

For newbie coders: This is the sort of thing that got me started - finding accessible access to the R-universe has been wonderful.

Excited to see that our effort to write down all our atlassing experience is finally published.

Monday Motivation! #MondayMotivation #MotivationMonday

Stunningly beautiful images, of crazily amazing biology ❤️

Thank you 🦋 - You continue to delight…. @bsky.app #science #science_scrolling #breathe-of_fresh_research ❤️

C’est incredible! Some better help in the pipeline for women suffering the effects of PCOS? #womens_health #GLP1 #endocrine 🙌🏼 great work (Praying that GLP1-agonists don’t turn into the latest snake-oil though 🙏🏼 - thoughts ??? @bsky.app 🦋??)

Two stages of anything….. 🤣

Beautiful dancing T-cells doing their thing 👇🏼 T-cell-Tuesday it is 🙌🏼

Dimensionality in data - careful what you infer : Great share from @slavov-n.bsky.social (In fact, loads of great shares from this lab - have a look 👀🦋🙌🏼)

Anyone for R???? A fabulous course for budding and aspirational coders! The delivery, the support and the materials - spot on! Great value for money.

Hey there 🦋 world! If you are interested in doing truly fantastic, creative, robust and beautiful science - (a bonus if you already know a bit about imaging and/or zebrafish and/or diabetes) : Look no further. The Yang Lab is in its ascendancy - #diabetes #imaging #uniofexeter

Very cool (imo)👇🏼 (On so many levels - even allegorically: Together stronger but choose your friends wisely? 🤔)

Last one from me today 😎: Looks like a fabulous resource for budding microscopists wanting to get base knowledge & thereby ensure that their work remains robust when scaling up to the wonders of multiplex, whole slide, ML generated datasets 🔬🔬🔬👇🏼 #microscopy #base_knowlege #robust_datacapture

Another cool atlas : this time in plasma! UKBiobank just keeps giving 👇🏼 Looking forward to diving into this one🙌🏼 What can it offer for T1D?🔬

This too 👇🏼👇🏼 If we could truly characterise human beta cell populations, in situ, and come to a consensus about islet architecture - over a lifespan…now that would be a truly beautiful thing 💎

There is an interesting story developing here (certainly for those us curious about disease heterogeneity in T1D) 👇🏼👇🏼 Lovely work Guido and team 🙌🏼

This👇🏼: 😄

Not my science 😅 : But car-driving rats have given me pause for thought about introducing anticipatory joy into mine and my labs daily/ weekly planning 🌳🌻🔬📝 theconversation.com/im-a-neurosc...

Oh Hello there:🦋’s Am so looking forward to a new start - have left X - and feel “clean” for the first time since 5th Nov. Looking forward to some inspiring science chat 🙏🏼❤️

Mind blowing! How do we feel?
