Job alert! Desperately seeking bioinformatician to work with us @UKDRI Cardiff, mainly analysing data from our #AlzheimersDisease#iPSC#microglia models (phenotypic assays, 'omics etc). Closes 16th Feb.👇 https://t.co/yJW2v0L1UB
📢Job alert - Postdoc position📢 Are you excited about using iPSC-derived microglia to understand endocytic mechanisms underlying Alzheimer's? Fancy developing some cool new imaging methods? Join us! Please RT & share @UKDRI@dem_researcher@ARUKscientist https://t.co/tJ45L6p4tT
"Today we're announcing a plan to completely decimate scientific research in the UK, social care, and what remains of the NHS"
There you go, fixed it for you.
We're thrilled to announce a new collaboration with @SPARC_ltd! 🎉
The first phase of this exciting partnership kicks off with a project led by UK DRI Emerging Leader @nlconnor_robson, investigating the role of the endocytic pathway in neurodegeneration👉https://t.co/KfsML73VPl
👻🎃Spooky Drosophila Trivia🪰😱
🪰 Scientists working with #Drosophila are widely known for the creative names they assign to newly discovered #genes.
👻 Genes, such as spook, spookier, phantom, disembodied, shadow, and shade are not an exception.
Had an awesome time at the @AlzSocResearch#ECRretweet!Thanks so much @SianGregory7 & the whole team for all your hard work running such a great event.
And lovely to catch up with my former student @karolnowa!
Do you have secondary school-aged kids?
@UKDRI is hosting ‘Making It Brain’, a free online mini-conference that will give a fascinating insight into dementia research for any student considering science as a career 🥼
Please share! 👉 https://t.co/fE9xkKioeA
