We wrote to NEJM saying the analysis on the Boston school mask study was flawed

Reanalysis over a longer period confirms this

“methodology inappropriate…including prior immunity, temporal variation in rates of infection, & changes in testing”

Congratulations Clifford TeBay on winning Best Lightning Talk at @the_ASSCR NSW Stem Cell Research Symposium! Clifford presented some of his PhD work generating a stem cell model of diabetic cardiomyopathy. He hopes it will inform better treatment options.

Our new @Cell_Metabolism study proposes a mechanistic connection between molecular remodelling in development & aging. We uncovered a common transcription factor pattern linked to chromatin remodelling in organismal maturation & aging.

So proud of team NSW for running @the_ASSCR first EMCR symposium of the year so flawlessly! What a great group of EMCRs! Thank you for creating such a welcoming environment!

Now we have VIC on the 25th! Last chance to register, rego closes this Sunday! https://t.co/aBXVwSaKYA!

[Kevin Law @KevinCL_Law]

@GarvanInstitute was a beautiful building to host the NSW EMCR @the_ASSCR Symposium. Great to listen to a variety of cutting-edge stem cell research happening in NSW and was a pleasure to work with the organising committee and chair a session 🧫🔬

[Cameron McKnight @CMitoKnight]

We need judges! Not sure your work is ready but still want to be part of this amazing initiative? Attend as a judge! Email us and we will set you up so you can attend for free. No need to stay all day either. Just judge one session!

[Australasian Society for Stem Cell Research @the_ASSCR]

Are you not sure if our EMCR forums are for you? Attend as a Judge! Email us at [email protected] to inquire, and you could attend for FREE and see all the action. There is no requirement to judge the whole day. We are happy to answer any questions.

[Cameron McKnight @CMitoKnight]

Last chance VIC! Late breaking abstracts close this Sunday!

[Australasian Society for Stem Cell Research @the_ASSCR]

Calling all VIC EMCRs!

We have reopened this week only for LATE-BREAKING abstracts for the VIC EMCR symposium. You have until Sunday, July 7th at midnight to get your 300 words in or register to attend!

LAST CHANCE! https://t.co/8uIUf5LnfC
