I had such a great time attending and presenting at the AACR Immuno-oncology conference a few weeks ago! And so cool to be featured on the AACR blog - you can watch my interview below!
Happy new year Proteoglycans lovers! 🦠
We’re calling all early-career scientists diving into the dynamic world of PGs to register for the 2026 GRS on Proteoglycans – you won’t want to miss it! 🧪

If that sounds like something that might interest you, or someone you know, don’t hesitate to reach out with questions, register or share!
Also don’t forget to register for the main event, the GRC, in your application!
We can’t wait to see you there 🦠✈️

The Gordon’s Research Seminar (GRS) is a 2-day symposium which takes place before the larger Gordon’s conference (GRC), and is designed specifically for PhDs, postdocs to share their research in a laid-back but supportive environment. 🎤👩🔬
If you are a graduate student or postdoc focusing on pioneering research regarding our favourite molecules - Proteoglycans - we would love to have you! In fact, we’re giving the first 20 sign-ups a bursary towards their travel ✈️🚂⛵️
What a way to close the year!!! An amazing webinar dedicated on Glycobiology full of research highlights, advancements, new tools and inspiration!!!! Such a great group of people. Go follow them 🥳
🔬Be sure not to miss our last seminar of the year!
Featuring short talks by @MegTriesScience and members of the Nottis GlycoAnalytics Hub, followed by keynote speaker @MerryLabNotts with an exciting talk on glycosaminoglycan!
📅 December 9 ⏲️2pm (GMT), 3pm (CET), 9am (EST).
New findings show that leukocytes have a surface “coating” that can be modified during inflammatory conditions, such as #psoriasis, revealing how these immune cells are recruited to sites of inflammation. @MegTriesScience@LydiaBeckerIII@douglaspdyer https://t.co/mwkI1hUPYg

Congratulations to BLS Lecturer Dr Amy Saunders @SaundersLab1 who co-authored research featured on the cover of #ScienceSignaling!
Dr Saunders' research has updated our understanding of how glycans help immune cells move into skin in psoriasis.

Excited to see the peer reviewed version of @MegTriesScience PhD work on the cover of Science Signaling, great explanation thread below https://t.co/b6hLB1H5uH
Leukocytes accumulate in the skin during psoriatic-like inflammation upon cleavage of surface heparan sulfate

A huge thank you to my PhD supervisors Doug and Amy for their support in this work, as well as our collaborators, including Olga Zubkova and Max Nobis, who made this possible! 💪
Putting all of this together, we propose that immune cells have a heparan sulfate glycocaylx which must be shed to enable migration into tissues. A new mechanism regulating immune cell migration!
