Thanks to the @FSHDSociety, the Chris Carrino Foundation, and @BennyChain for enabling me to attend, and @FSHresearch for funding the work!

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

The range of disciplines coming together at the @FSHDSociety IRC last week to tackle such a complex disease was impressive! I presented a talk & poster on our work using mathematical models of FSHD to theorise about treatment approaches. Preprint here: https://t.co/7hRSMF06F4

A legendary lineup of speakers this week at the Antwerp T cell receptor (TCR) conference! Thanks to the organisers and everyone with whom I had conversations. Enjoyed discussing our group's latest algorithms for TCR repertoire profiling! Latest version: https://t.co/KQYoTLS91u

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

Less than a week left to submit abstracts for the 3rd London Quantitative Immunology Day! https://t.co/uxrsTS92Su.

Register and share your work with a diverse set of biologists, physicists, mathematicians all united by a common interest in immunology.

@MacaDiazU @RoyalFreeChty @BennyChain @iit_ucl Thanks Maca! Happy holidays and hope all is well with you.

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

As a happy end of year post 🌲🎆 I'm delighted to share I've been awarded a @RoyalFreeChty ECR grant! I'll be studying the clonality of T cells in fascioscapulohumeral dystrophy. Huge thanks @BennyChain, @iit_ucl, and collaborators at Queen's Square and King's College. 🙏

Three years today since we moved into the Pears Building! 🎊 To mark this, we've just launched a new film celebrating some of the fantastic scientists from the Stauss Lab here at the Institute 🎬

Thanks Benny! Highlights include: CLI app, new UMI error-correction algorithm to handle high UMI diversity (24x speedup), new sparse matrix objects for memory efficiency (2x saving), and new testing suite! 🚀

[Benny Chain @BennyChain]

For all the T cell receptor sequencers out there, the latest version of our analysis pipeline Decombinator 5.0 is live, and now on PiPy for greater ease of installtion ! Thanks to Matt Cowley for a huge amount of work !

Can now run the whole pipeline using a single command. Much faster and more memory efficeint.

What did we #learn after #sequencing #5million #Tcells #scRNA and #TCRseq with @lisa_wagar @andimscience @suhaschandra87 and funding agency @WellcomeLeap @STLChildrens -Tissue determinants of the human T cell receptor repertoire. https://t.co/MnZVBEE93f

🚨 Fresh #preprint 🚨

Targeting #DUX4 protein diffusion when designing #FSHD #therapeutics looks to be a great strategy!

Lovely as always working with @FSHresearch, Prof. Pete Zammit, and Dr Christopher Banerji.

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

@andimscience @pjcgroupbath @Bath_IfS Thank you!

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

It's official! Lovely to celebrate the PhD with everyone this week. Can't thank my family, my supervisors (@pjcgroupbath, Alison Walker, and Matthew Wolf), and @Bath_IfS enough for all the support.

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

Thanks @Bath_IfS and @abelimray! Over the moon about this. Thanks @pjcgroupbath @Bath_IfS for such a wonderful PhD experience.

[Bath Institute of Sustainability & Climate Change @Bath_IfS]

Abel + Imray Prize for the best #research paper published this year awarded to Matthew Cowley @UniofBath @abelimray

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

@pjcgroupbath Thanks Petra for making it possible!

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

If you're looking to study for a PhD in solar energy, definitely apply! Great group and university.

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

Couple of updates from me! First, I submitted my PhD thesis a few weeks ago! 🎉 Next stop the viva.

And secondly, if you're interested in estimating the properties of perovskite solar cells via Bayesian inference, check out the very talented Sam McCallum's work in JPhys Energy.

[Matthew V. Cowley @mvcowley]

@ariquelex @Laurie_Bennett Likewise, was great to finally meet!

[Antonio Riquelme @ariquelex]

It was great to see @Laurie_Bennett again after a few years and finally meeting @MVCowley in person!!!
