What a beautiful welcome to country at the opening ceremony of #csanz25 @cardiacsociety.bsky.social @ishr-aus.bsky.social

Glad to be here in Brisbane at the Welcome to Country for #CSANZ2025 - it's always great to reconnect with colleagues & friends! Excited for the great science ahead :) @cardiacsociety.bsky.social @ishr-aus.bsky.social

Kicking off #CSANZ2025 in Brisbane! 🌞From the RT Hall Lecture & Ralph Reader Prize to deep dives on polygenic risk scores, genetics & public health, AI in CVD, & mini oral sessions plus poster wine & cheese 🧀🍷. Programme below!

A beautiful Welcome to Country opened #CSANZ2025, acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land here in Brisbane and paying respect to Elders past, present and emerging.

SUPER excited of this Focused Report on lipidomic profiling of a T1D 🐁 model of diabetic cardiomyopathy in Heart, Lung & Circulation. It's my 2nd senior author publication, & crazy that it came off a convo at last year's @cardiacsociety.bsky.social‬ meeting.

Attending #ISHR2025NARA is to get stuck into the awesome science thats being done, but also catching up with friends & colleagues @ishr-aus.bsky.social @jmccardiology.bsky.social

A (somewhat late) very happy new year to everyone - hope we're all emerging from the holidays rested & raring to take on 2025!

Happy to share our review on how different lipids shape microglial biology in #GLIA journal. 💫 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

👉🏽with Gaurav Chopra, Caitlin Randolph, and @katherinewalker.bsky.social

It took four days from submission to publication, and nearly five years from publication to retraction. After campaigning by many, many scientists, and an investigation by Elsevier, an infamous paper on hydroxychloroquine as a COVID-19 treatment has been retracted. 🧪

I am proud to share my PhD student, Teleah Belkin's 1st original publication 🎉🎉, with Prof. Julie McMullen & I as co-seniors (MY FIRST TOO!!) in @jmccplus.bsky.social showcasing the therapeutic effect of #alkylglycerol dietary supplement in a 🐁 model of dilated cardiomyopathy

Hello #Bluesky! I'm a Group Leader in the Metabolomics Lab led by Prof Peter Meikle at the Baker Heart & Diabetes Institute. I'm passionate about #lipids in cardiac health & disease, with a focus on using🐁 models to innovate new therapeutics, uncover mechanisms & explore tissue crosstalk! #Cardiosky

Congrats to those who got happy emails from #NHMRC today - to the others - you are more than your research. Something I consistently remind myself of but more often than not, struggle to acknowledge. Be kind to yourself.

If your #NHMRC ideas grant was unsuccessful and you have a story to share about the impact of this on your #biomedicalresearch, career, team - get in touch. Federal DOH have asked #NARF to collect stories of impact of low funding. #SaveOzScience #DiscoveriesNeedDollars #EMCRs

Whilst I had created my #bluesky acct some time ago, I've lurked around, clinging onto the hope of the scientific community on X. I think there's finally some shift & w/o delving too deep into politics, I think Elon Musk is a twit. Soo... 👋
