Even though I'm trying not to use this app anymore, I thought I'd share this! Take a look if you want to find out a little bit more about my research on #asthma #pericyte #therapeutics

[ATS RSF Assembly @ATS_RSF]

Welcome our ECP Dr Rebecca Bignold, a Research Fellow from Aston University. Dr Bignold’s research focuses on elucidating the role of pericytes in airway remodeling associated with allergic asthma 🤧

After a travel day yesterday totalling over 22 hours, I've finally made it to Winnipeg for the YIM2024 conference!! 🇨🇦🫁 #asthma #earlycareerresearcher

[Rebecca Bignold PhD MRSB FHEA @R_Bignold]

Fantastic time today at #miflow2024. Very insightful presentations from all involved. Thanks @miflowgroup for organising a great conference and for voting me 2nd place for my oral presentation! #Midlandsinnovation #flowcytometry

A potential long-term treatment for asthma – the chronic and incurable condition in which your body occasionally forgets how to breathe – is showing promise, a new study in mice suggests. https://t.co/dBceQQDlKC

📰| Potential long-term treatment for asthma found - new research

👉Dr Jill Johnson @AstonBioscience and researchers @imperialcollege have developed a new approach that tackles one of the causes of asthma, not just its symptoms

Proud to be part of this research group and first author on the article about this groundbreaking research. Exciting times are ahead! @JJohnsonLab

[Aston University @AstonUniversity]

Just under 5.5 million people in the UK receive treatment for asthma and around 1,200 people die of the disease each year.

A possible way to tackle one of the underlying causes of asthma has been developed by researchers from Aston University and Imperial College London!👇

Looking back at #ATS2022. So proud to be able to represent @JJohnsonLab in San Francisco this year, some great research all round @ATS_RSF @atscommunity

[Johnson Lab @JJohnsonLab]

Pleased to announce the publication of our latest paper in Respiratory Research! #pericytes #asthma #CXCL12
