Another fantastic @VersusArthritis fellowsโ network event on building an academic CV, followed by a workshop on writing narrative CVs. Thanks to our speakers @ChrissyLHam Shafaq Sikander & Adam Croft plus Hannah Dutton from @LivUni research development team
Our review on the important and unique roles of the endocytic receptor LRP1 is out today! Four different teams from UK, Italy, Denmark and USA worked together to make it, which hopefully useful for many. To read jbc.org/article/S0021-โฆ
Weโve had a brilliant morning sharing and showcasing some of the fantastic public engagement happening in @LivUniHLS! Thank you to all our speakers congratulations to all our award winners ๐
Fantastic week in Ann Arbor to further strengthen MSK collaborations between the University of Michigan and Liverpool. Great science discussions and a very warm welcome! ๐ @LivuniILCaMS @UMPhysiology




Thank you so much to @UMPhysiology, particularly Dr Susan Books and @MicheleLabUM for hosting such an amazing visit. We are blown away with the science as well as the hospitality and look forward to working together.
Delighted to see the amazing science and impressive facilities @UMKines Excited to discuss some joint approaches moving forward. @LivuniILCaMS @LivUniHLS @LivUniResearch
Delighted to be @UMich with a team of scientists from @LivUni exploring new and complementary research areas. Lots of excellent ideas, excited to see them develop. @LivuniILCaMS @UMPhysiology @LivUniHLS @LivUniResearch
Great talk today by PhD student Mary Hines at the musculoskeletal department away day. Her work involves using activity-based probes to profile active proteases in osteoarthritis. Well done Mary! ๐@LivuniILCaMS @DiMeN_DTP
