Guess what - we're recruiting! 🥳
The ACDS is seeking enthusiastic PhD or postdoc members of the #celldeath community to join our 2025 committee - we have openings for Secretary & both Communications Officer roles. See website for details & apply via email by Mon 23rd September!
Really happy to have received this year’s professional development award! Funding doesn’t come by easily, so huge thanks to the ACDS for enabling my trip to an overseas meeting! It’s great being part of such a wonderful society 🙌
Our paper is out and about, and now being advertised by this devil(or grinch?)-looking #SARSCoV2 infected lung. Funny the things you can find hidden in your data 👀😈
A new #COVID19 model is allowing different disease outcomes to be analysed in detail for the first time, a crucial step towards better understanding what biological factors set apart mild and severe symptoms.
Brilliant research, now in @PNASNews: https://t.co/J0QJ6CKJS1

Prof Silke was then joined on stage by Stefanie Bader @stef_bader to look back on the history of #celldeath research; acting as the angel & devil on our audience's shoulders for a lively discussion on what we did right over the years - or what we did "wrong"!
😇😈 #JAM2023
PhD Opportunity: Join our motivated research team focused on inflammation & cell death. If you’re tech-savvy & have a passion for proteomics, we want to hear from you! Apply now! #PhD#research@WEHI_research
@molregulation@AusCellDeathSoc I’m sure everyone would have loved to hear your perspective Sharad! Next time we should have a longer discussion, the party was meant to be disrupted 😈! Hope I get to hear about it at the next JAM!
Sharad, that’s the best legend! Dressed as IAP 😇 and Diablo 😈 we discussed the rights and wrongs of cell death research, capping off incredible 3-days of #JAM2023! Immensely proud of our society of Australasian scientists @AusCellDeathSoc 🇯🇵🇦🇺
Massive thanks to the team involved - from isolating the original virus during peak lockdown to passaging, sequencing, RNAseq… So many different skills! 💪🎊
🐭🦠 Delighted to finally share our latest research! Check out how we developed a severe #COVID19 model, shedding light on critical pathways in both young and aged groups - and for the first time, genetic evidence confirms TNF's pathogenic role! #SARSCoV2 https://t.co/ZFGWlcq1eD
What an interesting conference! From long COVID, to immunology, population health and a plenary with the first researchers to work with SARS-CoV-2. It was a pleasure to add our results to such a diverse mix of research topics at #C192023@ASHMMedia
Our expert panel discusses pandemic preparedness, reflecting on the COVID-19 pandemic. Data sharing matters, the biology of the virus matters, politics matter. #C192023
