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

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

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

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 🧪

'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.'
