Very fun morning for the Gillingwater Lab, with @tomgillingwater.bsky.social, cheering on Giles Lomax for his (frankly insane) 435 mile capital-to-capital bike ride raising awareness for SMA UK

A gorgeous morning on the Mersey for Day 2 of #BNA2025! The plenary last night taught us the benefits of reading on the brain... Difficult to resist the books here but I suppose I should go
If you're here, come and see my poster today on our latest work on therapy development in ALS 😊

The Gillingwater Lab Christmas Party had a bit of a different start this year... with some curling! Unfortunately we weren't immediately Olympic standard, but we gave it our best shot
