4 July was Doddie’s Birthday & we're encouraging everyone to wear a little (or a lot) of tartan on the day to raise awareness of MND 🔵🟡

We hope this is a fitting way to pay tribute to the big man & urge everyone to get involved to turn 4 July tartan for MND for years to come🤝

So proud of my PhD student @fd_rca - masterclass in science communication ⭐✨ And what a great opportunity to present our work on embryonic disease mechanisms, since we 1st showed my own PhD work in 2020. Amazing to now have a whole session on development! #SMACongress2024

[Dr Chayts @hellychayts]

@fd_rca What a great talk from our PhD student Federica, giving her first ever talk at a conference, introducing the idea that SMA is a developmental disease at #SMACongress2024 @SMAEurope @GillingwaterLab @EuansCentre
