Proud to have been a part of this excellent work during my PhD!👩🔬 Great team effort- huge kudos to @AnaMiguelCruz and @Craig_Beall for tying this paper all together. An excellent start the Christmas holidays🎄#EXCEED@ExeterMed
New study led by Jiping Zhang - low glucose increases macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) release from macrophages. Allosteric #AMPK activators do a decent job at attenuating/limiting MIF release @diabmedwiley#ExeterDiabetes@DUK_research. Explainer to follow
🚨Now hiring: The Yang lab is seeking an MRC-funded technician to support our work on neural-pancreas interplay.
DM me for informal inquiries. #zebrafish#islet

Gearing up for #CoBHumanDev starting on Monday next week. This will be our 6th 'From stem cells to human development' meeting, and it's been fantastic to see how far the field has come - we're looking forward to hearing the latest advances in the field! https://t.co/XLM8ntBZl5
.@Exeter_Diabetes 🥼 scientists Drs. Afi Leslie, Russell, & Morgan (@ngmorgan1) report a 💡 novel role for cytokine-induced regulation of ⏩ STAT1 acetylation in the control of β- cell viability.

Excellent talks and posters at #DUKPC2024 (my first in-person!). Stimulating conversations and lovely to celebrate the incredible scientific successes of the @ibex01 group last night- albeit missing several members! Looking forward to next year! #EXCEED@DUK_research@ExeterMed
Hello friends,
Know any curious, determined students? or are you such a gem?
We have (UK) a funded PhD studentship up for grabs:
The remit? Characterise the fundamental protein expression profiles in the pancreas in T1D through multiplex imaging…

Adherent reformed islets: a long-term primary cell-based platform for exploring mouse and human islet biology.
Thank you @JDRFUK @JDRF for funding this research. It is helping us find new ways to stop immune attack of the #islet#type1#diabetes

This #WorldDiabetesDay we’re so grateful to partner with @stevemorganfdn & @JDRFUK on the #Type1DiabetesGrandChallenge, to get us closer to a #T1D cure
And to the amazing scientists this partnership is supporting – take a look at them in action below 👇
Pleased to share our latest preprint paper. We show that reduced glucose availability increases release of inflammatory cytokine MIF factor from primary macrophages, which can be suppressed by pharmacological enhancement of #AMPK

Want to do a post-doc finding out how B cells might contribute to Type 1 diabetes – look no further! Join me in the beautiful South West of England. More details here https://t.co/FKsLIC1Kbn @ibex01@UoE_Vacancies
Pleased to do my small part to get this really interesting study published. Interesting balance between metformin and amino acids, particularly leucine. w/@GrahamRena1@UoDMedicine
Amino acid homeostasis is a target of metformin therapy https://t.co/WLdT7QrNV0
