Our next science comic, from the MacFarlane lab, is about macrophages, biopersistent fibres and how this is linked to mesothelioma.
Each comic, created with @claudiaflandoli.bsky.social tells a story from the microworld and relates it to real world research.

On the day we were awarded an #ERCAdG from the @erc.europa.eu, I want to highlight this non-science paper I wrote with @deefitzgerald.bsky.social on research culture:
wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/9-341
Why? Because I'm often told we need to chose between excellence and kindness

Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

Check out this #mesothelioma comic developed by our partners at University of Cambridge. It's a great visual representation of our immune response to #asbestos fibres. Well worth a read!
Very well done to all involved @emilyself.bsky.social @davidoloughlin.bsky.social @claudiaflandoli.bsky.social

On Wednesday this week we hosted our first PREDICT-Meso Young Investigators’ Day in Glasgow. Blown away by the progress and quality of our PhD students & postdocs. The future of #mesothelioma research looks bright! @cruk-si.bsky.social @uofglasgow.bsky.social @djmurphylab2.bsky.social
