"It is extraordinary that menstrual periods remain taboo," write Hilary Critchley and colleagues, who argue that heavy menstrual bleeding contributes to anaemia and iron deficiency in women and girls and must no longer be ignored.

The wait is over!! We are thrilled to announce that we have chosen Spatial Proteomics as 2024’s Method of the Year! 🥳

For more on Spatial Proteomics and a road map to this special issue, please see this month’s Editorial or read on in this thread.

This HCA publication collection is a 💎 and so glad we could contribute to it with our work on human developing 🫁

[Human Cell Atlas @humancellatlas]

We are thrilled to share an HCA Collection of 40+ peer-reviewed papers in @NaturePortfolio shedding light on human development, healthy and disease biology and vital analytical tools. #HCA2024NatureCollection #HumanCellAtlas https://t.co/TKWn8CjXRd

#Astrocytes (stained for GFAP in 🔴) having a meeting in the parietal cortex. Phosphorylated alpha-synuclein, protein usually responsible for pathological aggregates in #ParkinsonsDisease, is shown in 🟢. With nuclear staining DAPI, in 🔵. #FluorescenceFriday 🧠🔬

Inspired by the awesome brain images by @DaniBeckman, I thought I'd start sharing some from my projects! Here’s a macaque hippocampus with neurofilament L (🟡), CD133 (🔴), and DAPI (🔵), titled "whirlpool of thoughts". Hoping to keep this #WedMicroscopy up! #Neuroscience 🧠🔬

The lung of a few weeks old human #embryo has been explored by @burcu_ayoglu, @Prof_Lundberg and colleagues.

“For an organ that ‘starts to do its job’ with a newborn's first breath, it looks intricately sophisticated. And it looks stunningly beautiful” says Burcu Ayoglu.

[Mariya Mardamshina M.D./Ph.D. @Mia_Mardamshin]

Are you interested in the development of the human lung? Investigate cell type composition, spatial arrangement traits, and temporal evolution through a recent preprint employing high-parametric tissue #imaging, precise #segmentation, #spatial analysis. https://t.co/pI7605tiy4

"The true definition of science: the study of the beauty of the world." by #SimoneWeil. So necessary on difficult days like today 😔. The image below shows microglia (cian, iba1), astrocytes (gold, gfap), and nuclei (blue, dapi) in the adult hippocampus. #neuroscience

[Dr Sophie Acton @ActonLab]

We’re petitioning for ERC to reconsider eligibility - changing from PhD date to from when we start independent positions. This would allow more diversity in career paths… currently many researchers miss out before they even get started.

If you agree that ERC should remove their academic age limits on ERC grants - please Sign this Petition! Please also RT: #EDI #science #EuropeanScience #ERCgrant https://t.co/ydFU97qdju via @UKChange

[MatsNilssonLab @MatsNilssonLab]

Out in @NatureCellBio!
In collab with Samakovlis lab, @ASountoulidis & @sergiomarco96 built a #spatiotemporal atlas of the human embryonic lung. Novel cell types, differentiation trajectories & interactions identified. Want to know more?
