A huge honour to be a recipient of the Delphine Parrott award and give a memorial lecture. Delphine was the 1st female professor at the University of Glasgow and a groundbreaking immunologist. Also great to be introduced by Allan Mowatt as an honorary Scot! @immunememorylab.bsky.social

Friday we celebrated our new MRC Centre of Research Excellence in Exposome Immunology: a joint venture with Oxford that we call MOXIE (Manchester-Oxford Immunology of the Exposome). This challenging adventure is off to a great start. @exposomeimmunology.bsky.social

While cleaning up some files I found this screenshot of a David Sipress cartoon. Even more apt 3 years later.

Georgia's and Hannah's Graduation was a great experience and excuse to dress up and process. Congratulations Drs Baldwin & Tompkins!!! Tomorrow more pictures from Brian with the whole lab

Great visit to IRB Bellinzona. Beautiful location, great hospitality and amazing PhD student analysis of our lab papers.

Congratulations to Dr Georgia for an amazing viva success and thank you to her enthusiastic examiners.

Wonderful holiday read (a mix of audible & kindle). Checkout the description of the immune system during the medical school lecture by Dr Ramasamy at the start of Chapter 69.

Wonderful festive Christmas lunch

And thanks so much to Hannah’s examiners Tracy Hussel and @dakinlabgroup.bsky.social

Congratulations to Hannah!!! PhD viva done with no corrections. @drtesutherland.bsky.social very proud of her first PhD student. Allen lab is so privileged to have Hannah with us this past 2 years ago.

When the venue is more intimidating than the audience - what a beautiful room for EMDS2024!
