Kicking off another brilliant @britsocimm.bsky.social Congress with the Bright Sparks PhD session. Always blown away by the quality of the immunology research in this session!

So delighted to have had our first visitor to the lab, Javier Perez Garcia from CNIO, teaching me and Katrine new techniques!

My mum’s response when I described the academic publishing system 😂 I mean, she’s not wrong!

This allegedly Labour Government are enacting new laws to suppress our democratic right to protest. This is outrageous. Their refusal to acknowledge the Palestinian Genocide and their suppression of protest against it will go down in history Fuck the government www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Such a nice change of pace to be spending time here visiting Guadalupe Sabio’s lab! Also, such a fun place to do some experiments on my birthday before heading into the city for dinner with friends!

I know this is meant to be my professional account so excuse me for a moment when I say this. Fuck the British government. Fuck the gutless warmongers that we voted in, and who are complicit in the genocide being committed in Gaza www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

It’s sickening to see the scenes in London. The police arresting peaceful protesters in their hundreds. This chilling overreach by a supposedly forward-thinking government has set a dangerous precedent & we need to start reminding them that they are public events & not our overlords

Are people still using Bluesky much for science or have you gone elsewhere? Noticed the #immunosky feed isn’t updating anymore & not seeing that much science on here lately 🧪

Amazing last day @iuis-online.bsky.social with talks on immune memory and stromal responses. It’s been such a great experience and can’t wait to meet colleagues & friends next time in Toronto for the IUIS 2028 meeting. It was a true pleasure to meet colleagues from all over the world, in particular

Pedro Lucinda (MSc student) from @waldutra.bsky.social lab in Brazil giving an outstanding presentation on gd T cells in the context of chagasic cardiomyopathy. Such talent coming from Latin America! #IUIS2025

Excellent talk by @mcsinton.bsky.social during the #IUIS2025 rising star session! @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social representing @iuis-online.bsky.social amazing talk by George Robinson (UCL, UK) & Marion Brunck (Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico)

If you’re @iuis-online.bsky.social Congress in Vienna & love adipose tissue/immunometabolism, let’s have a coffee! Also, come check out our work by coming to my talk at 3.20pm Monday 18th in Hall A. #Immunosky 🧪 #IUIS2025

🌟 We promise the #RisingStars didn’t ask us to brag this much… but can you blame us? 🎥 Watch their videos, get inspired, then meet them at the #IUIS2025 booth in Vienna — selfies encouraged! 👉 https://loom.ly/TnMMn0w#RisingStars#IUIS2025#RisingStars2025 #RoadToVienna

✨ Tomorrow, we meet again. Join your peers, mentors, and future collaborators at the year’s most important #immunology event. Don’t miss your chance to connect, learn, and lead. ✈️ Safe travels to everyone heading to #IUIS2025! 🔗 Last call to register: https://loom.ly/CwagY2g

If you are attending @iuis-online.bsky.social & like B cells/neuroimmunology/sleep/behaviour, come say Hi! We're always on the look out for motivated, down-to-earth, curious scientists to join us. We're based @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social which is an amazing to develop your career #Immunosky #IUIS2025

On our way to Vienna for the #IUIS2025 - @mcsinton.bsky.social will be giving his rising star talk on Monday afternoon! 💪🏼💪🏼

Waiting for the flight to @iuis-online.bsky.social Congress in Vienna, with @juanquintana.bsky.social for a week full of immunology and strudel! Glad that my talk is at the start of the week so I can then kick back and enjoy all the cool science!

I've just done an ELISA and the kit recommends a 4PL analysis... I have no idea how to do this and the company (very helpfully) doesn't give any information on how to do this. Has anyone got any experience of this and could give a hand? Thanks! #immunosky 🧪

Our first @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social bar rally and the team dressed up as the teletubbies - not sure how I feel about that sun though! Gutted to be missing it but go team!!!

'We report that aging B-1a cells exhibit hallmarks of decline, including DNA damage, apoptosis, and reduced proliferation, with striking sex-specific disparities: aged females retain higher B-1a cell numbers than males, correlating with enhanced glycolysis and chromatin accessibility.' #Immunology

Super proud of @mcsinton.bsky.social !! Looking forward to @iuis-online.bsky.social in Vienna next Month!

So excited to go to the IUIS and present our work on adipose tissue and systemic immunometabolism!

Meet @mcsinton.bsky.social, immunometabolism researcher & Wellcome Fellow @ Manchester. He’ll present “Fat on the frontline: fuelling immunity in chronic infection.” https://loom.ly/CwagY2g #Immunosky @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social

Finally, a beautiful #FluorescenceFriday image to share! Hot off the microscope too! Love how the adipose tissue looks on the confocal 😍 🧪🔬

Really looking forward to being a part of this! 👇
