[Elaine Emmerson @DoctorEmmerson]

I will soon be advertising a #PhD project as part the @PrecisionMedPhD programme, to develop a localised #drug delivery system to drive #salivarygland #regeneration in collaboration with the Unciti-Broceta lab at @EdinUni_IGC. Sept 2025 start, informal enquiries welcome.

Once again emerging from twitter hibernation to share our newly released paper "Utilising an in silico model to predict outcomes in senescence-driven acute liver injury" published on Monday in npj Regen. Med 🥳https://t.co/cim7ywg4k6

Emerging from twitter hibernation to share our Perspectives article "Exploiting in silico modelling to enhance translation of liver cell therapies from bench to bedside" published today in npj Regen. Med 🥳🥂.

We discuss challenges for translating #liver #celltherapies to clinic, describe powerful examples of mathematical modelling that benefitted patients & how #insilico models could lead to fewer, more targeted in vivo experiments (backed by quantitative in vivo cell tracking data)

The UK government’s bid to slash environmental protections is an onslaught on nature and the laws that protect it. We are angry, and we are not alone, says RSPB chief executive @BeccyRSPB https://t.co/wcII8QQyYY

This just makes me feel unbearably sad. I spent my first 11 years as a doctor under a Labour government - waiting lists were down, no one talked about efficiency savings, we had enough staff, people wanted to become nurses & doctors, & we felt valued. I miss it so bloody much.

Keeping with tradition @WMISWMIC has thrown a fabulous closing party to end an excellent #WMIC2022 really enjoyed all the fabulous talks over the past few days 👌

[Candy @_Cashmore_]

Despite the questionable weather forecasts I am very excited to be on my way to #WMIC2022 in Miami. Looking forward to hearing great science and catching up with imaging colleagues from @KingsImaging and those who have migrated across the pond!

Originally submitted in July 2021 with amendments accepted in October 2021 and proofs appearing in May 2022 I am very pleased to finally see this out in the world! It's keeping many other chapters in the book good company that are also worth a read https://t.co/WDwMH4a3I4

Delighted to report that our book chapter “Generation of In Vivo Traceable Hepatocyte-Like Cells from Human iPSCs” in the latest edition of Hepatocytes: Methods in Molecular Biology is finally available in digital print! @SpringerNature https://t.co/xKpwOuJ31Z

[Candy @_Cashmore_]

Whether you’re interested in the fine details of #hiPSC to #hepatocyte-like-cell differentiation, #lentivirus production or tips and tricks to enhance titre or transduction or you just want to check out some #SPECT imaging we've got you covered!

🚨 Beyond excited to be part of @Abortion_Rights new Activist Bootcamp

This is for #prochoice people in England/Wales who really care about #abortion rights and are wondering what they can do to help protect our rights 💪

Apply, learn skills, make friends, effect change 🤗

[Hope Bastine | Psychologist @hopebastine]

This week the UK Government quietly removed ‘sexual and reproductive health and rights’ and ‘bodily autonomy’ from an international statement on human rights. #abortionrights are in trouble

Microrobots have the potential to revolutionize medicine. Researchers at the Max Planck ETH Centre for Learning Systems have developed an imaging technique that recognises cell-​sized microrobots individually and at high resolution in a living organism. https://t.co/CCYz30tozF

You can find a great commentary of the paper which highlights the promise of the areas under investigation here: https://t.co/VbXb0PjeBy

Always exciting to see a paper from your group finally out in the wild - check out "Human biliary epithelial cells from discarded donor livers rescue bile duct structure and function in a mouse model of biliary disease" hot off the press! https://t.co/1YwuBzAUpX @CellStemCell

[Candy @_Cashmore_]

The paper is an exciting addition to the #liver #celltherapy field showing the regenerative potential of human #biliary epithelial cell transplants to restore structure and function in models of biliary injury with the cells isolated from discarded livers!
