🔔 New publication 🔔
📑 Our new collaborative publication with the Royal Free Hospital and Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is now online in Kidney International Reports: https://t.co/7s5OxO1fX3
🤩 A special one for me, as it is my third first-author publication
We have a new pre-print out! Working with @RealDr_Pepper we describe an adult patient with FSGS treated with Vincristine, and studied how serum from this patient affects human podocytes in vitro. Check out our work below ⬇️ @UCL_ICH_Kidney@RenalUCL https://t.co/RlkfvgiVKS
The team was at Prof David Long’s lab @UCL_ICH_Kidney yesterday! We learned about their fascinating research into kidney disease, which is one of the #diabetes#complications.
New grant success 🎉
Dr Jennifer Chandler from @UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health has received a PhD Studentship grant of £100,000 to understand the potential of targeting blood vessels to treat childhood kidney disease.

🚨 NEW PRE-PRINT 🚨
In #PKD, the most common inherited kidney disease, renal blood vessels are 'messed up' at early stages and could represent a promising therapeutic target

A massive well done to all our presenters today, especially our winners, Tina Karapouliou, @GideonPomeranz, @domscaglioni, @_LaurenRussell_ and Tarek Saleh!
An excellent feat and brilliant research!
(And a pat on the back for our DBC ECRC team!)
🎄Make sure to check out the @UCLchildhealth#ChristmasLecture event this Wednesday in the Kennedy lecture theatre from 14.30. 🎁

Last week speakers from @RenalUCL and @UCLchildhealth presented their latest findings on a range of renal topics, hosted by @salama_alan.
This offered a wonderful opportunity for clinicians and scientists to exchange ideas and thoughts over exciting ongoing research.
⚠️PhD opportunity⚠️ We are recruiting a #PhD student to join our dynamic lab who will use #stemcells to generate 3D #organoids to investigate #vascular changes in children with #CKD, working with Profs David Long and @RukshanaShroff. Apply before 25/11/22 https://t.co/JxbnSbhaTU
💫 NEW PREPRINT💫
We used #singlecell to unravel glomerular cell pathology & crosstalk in 🐁 modelling paediatric steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Thanks @UCL_ICH_Kidney, @asmasonomics & @Alinkie_P! Excited to present @ASNKidney#KidneyWk!
https://t.co/BT61oQ805s
We are excited to announce the launch of our brand new website! We underline the work we are doing in our group, along with a list of our recent publications, and more information about our wonderful lab members https://t.co/gfln6YXaYU
As part of our ongoing public engagement initiative, our @UCLHresearch Research Fellow @ChandlerJennie took part in the @GOSHCharity Play Street event to teach children how the kidneys filter waste from our blood! 🚸We can’t wait for the next one 😀🙏🏼
My first paper has been published in @SciReports! Supervised by Dr Elisa Vasilopoulou & Prof David Long, this is a #collaboration with @MedwayPharmacy, @UCL_Child_Health & @RoyalVetCollege investigating #genetherapy to alleviate #kidneydisease: https://t.co/tzOjugmQnA ⬇️ (1/11)
Please RT 🚨 JOB OPPORTUNITY 🚨 we are looking for a postdoc to study #lymphatics in #kidney development, health + disease. You’ll get to use #singlecell technologies & #3D imaging (👇) in a highly collaborative lab @UCLchildhealth. Apply before 30/06: https://t.co/iU0NpIJeaB
We proudly present the @ucl judges and peoples choice #3MT winner, Maria Caluianu🤩 Maria will now compete in the national competition 😱 congratulations Maria, fully deserved, we’re so proud 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow! Our #PhD students @ScientistSaif and Maria Caluianu have both progressed through the @UCLchildhealth#3MT heat!! This means they will both represent ICH at the @UCLPopHealthSci faculty heat (1 off the @UCL final) 😱 #congratulations both, you smashed it 👏🏼👏🏼
