An exciting new initiative led by one of our departments PIs @bcellsrosser.bsky.social and the @britsocimm.bsky.social

It’s #EULAR26! Lot’s of our dept is there @georgearobinson.bsky.social @junjie-peng.bsky.social @ciurtinlab.bsky.social @bethangoulden.bsky.social to name but a few! Don’t forget to share your photos and your abstracts so we can repost 👌 tag anyone we’ve missed.

Fantastic to see this important conversation tackled head on. How will medical research be changed by AI…. Hoping more comments like these will become common place as we tackle this huge change in our field.

Have a read of the latest paper from our HoD Prof Gilroy’s lab and first author @oliviabracken.bsky.social in @natcomms.nature.com about the role of epoxyoxylipids in human monocyte biology and the resolution of inflammation doi.org/10.1038/s414...

Wow! What a week.. our #BSI25 Congress in stats: 3 invited talks 3 selected for abstracts for short talks 1 lunch industry talk and… 14 posters! Not bad for a department less than 1 yr old 👏🏼

Now more than usual (since I'm considering applying for a sex-differences based fellowship) I enjoyed and appreciated @ciurtinlab.bsky.social talk #BSI25! We really really need to sex-dissegregate our data!! ♂️♀️

First-ever classification criteria for #haemochromatosis arthropathy now published! A major step for research & trials in this under-recognised condition. Thanks to the @eular.org task force who made this possible - a privilege to work together since 2020! www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Loving #BSI25, especially @ciurtinlab.bsky.social and @emmaschambers.bsky.social highlighting our paper in @jem.org is one of #ArthritisUK top research output of ‘25! If you have 5 minutes, give us a vote (number 5) below, sex differences in the immune system: www.arthritis-uk.org/our-research...

Too many good talks so hard to choose #BSI25! For now let's see how our @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social HoD Derek Gilroy presents the great story of @oliviabracken.bsky.social 's PhD 👏🤩

Great to see the ARR labs as the background for new borrowers movie!

Some of us may be interested to meet sooner, so #EESSexDifferences @EMBLEvents may be of interest. It goes beyond the immune system, but still www.embl.org/about/info/c...

Great to see @bcellsrosser.bsky.social perspective in @natrevrheum.nature.com highlighted in this editors comment! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Amazing talk from Lizzy Rosser @bcellsrosser.bsky.social at @efis-immunology.bsky.social So cool to hear about how sex determinants influence B cells! @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social

Congrats @heather--cross.bsky.social on a great talk at the EFIS sex difference meeting today! @arrdept-ucldom.bsky.social

Great to see @bcellsrosser.bsky.social and colleagues taking their science public engagement to @newscientist.com live!

Heading up to Manchester this morning to speak in the @britsocimm.bsky.social Manchester Immunology Group Seminar Series @lydiabeckeriii.bsky.social Looking forward to it!
