It has recently come to my attention that one of the earlier influences in my (very very early) academic career passed away in 2021. Sad news. Thank you for your inspiration AJ. https://t.co/MwkxW4jnmV

So pleased to share that the last piece of work from my PhD with @VenomsLab and A/ Prof Michelle Rank has now been published with @PLOSONE https://t.co/BpSKyGPsPE Electrophysiology, acid sensing ion channels and Hi1a !

In this new piece of research we debunk the common misconception that blue light filtering lenses may alter sleep. https://t.co/xQxrYScCRg @UniofOxford @OxSCNi

The reason I moved out to Australia for my PhD was to perform research in this field, so it will always hold a precious place in my heart. I love keeping up to date and seeing what amazing things my colleagues and friends have been up to !

Our researchers have faced their fear to work with some of the world’s most venomous plants and animals to gain insights into the prospective uses of their toxins.

See what they have discovered so far:

Are you moving to (or moving back to) Tooting to study with us? 👋

This #ThrowbackThursday photo is of Tooting Broadway dating from the 1930s, but did you know Tooting has actually been around since the Romans?

Yes, exposure to war and conflict modifies the human genome. A great piece of work by @DrVSFoster & team @bravovictororg. Watch this space for further research on this area and the impact for veterans care & military health. Cc: @VeteransGovUK

[Torie @DrVSFoster]

So glad we were able to get this paper out, and hopefully this will stimulate more understanding and interest in the area, as well as inform research moving forward. Congratulations to the team!

[BRAVO VICTOR @bravovictororg]

Exposure to war and conflict modifies human genome!
For the first time, the “epigenetic impacts” of war and conflict on individuals exposed to war, as well as outcomes related to their children has been established. @VeteransGovUK

In 2010, Hari lost both his legs while serving in Afghanistan with The Royal Gurkha Rifles.

He is the first double above knee amputee to summit a mountain over 6,000m. He never intended to break the record, he climbed to inspire others.
