Zebrafishing for answers to vascular biology in Australia @Latrobe 🇲🇾🇦🇺🇯🇵🐟
Ever wondered how to manipulate mechanical forces in the developing zebrafish heart?🤓 Check out our @JoVEJournal protocol by @CVagenaPantoula and Hajime, where we describe magnetic bead grafting as an effective approach to study #mechanotransduction!🐟🔬 app.jove.com/t/67604/manipu…
Latest preprint from the lab! Vascular mural cells protect the adult brain from haemorrhage but do not control the blood-brain barrier in developing zebrafish biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Happy to share a Review on zebrafish induced lymphangiogenesis models and therapeutic discovery co-authored with postdoc Srdjan! The field is rapidly expanding due to great researchers worldwide! Take a peek! @LIMSLTU @SABE_latrobe @LaTrobe_CVR @latrobe mdpi.com/3413172
Thank you to everyone who attended today’s building networks workshop! A special thanks to our amazing panel members, your insights were invaluable. We have all gained some much-needed collaboration wisdom! 💡👏 @LIMSLTU @SABE_latrobe @latrobe
📢 Exciting new research from @SABE_latrobe opens new doors for future biomedical research! Dr Zahra Telikani from @HelbigLab has developed tiny fat-based particles that travel to a wider range of cells and organs (including the brain) in mice and zebrafish models. Read more 👉…
Excited to share our latest work, creating an artificial lipid droplet! 🦠🧠 This is @TimetogoZ's first first-author paper from her PhD, and my first senior-author paper!! 🎉🥹 Check it out ⬇️ sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Global #trust in scientists remains high, especially among Australians — according to a study led by La Trobe and ANU. 80% of respondents support the assertion that scientists 'have a responsibility to communicate about science with the general public'. brnw.ch/21wQa5B
Very proud of my first postdoc Srdjan (no twitter) to co-win the first prize of @LaTrobeBIP imaging competition! The first award for the lab and hopefully more to come in the future. Congratulations Srdjan and Pri (Cheng lab)! @LIMSLTU @SABE_latrobe @LaTrobe_CVR @RCEVhub @latrobe
Thank you to everyone who entered the @LaTrobeBIP imaging competition. Another great turnout showcasing the incredible work produced by @latrobe researchers. Congrats to first place winners Srdjan and Pri for their amazing zebrafish image. Hoon and Steph were our runners up.
1/3 🎉 Proud and excited to see LIMS & @SABE_latrobe members awarded a total of ~$4.3M in today’s @nhmrc Ideas Grants – congratulations to CIAs Prof Chris Sobey, Prof Karla Helbig & Dr Travis Johnson! Read more: latrobe.edu.au/news/announcem… #sciencetwitter #NHMRC #biomedresearch
More than 1 year has passed since this first post below. Final and revised version of iFlpMosaics coming out very soon...all new genetic tools (plasmids, mice and cell lines) are available for shipment.
After many years of development and refinement, here is our preprint showing a new toolbox for high-throughput scMosaic genetics in mice 👉"iFlpMosaics". Led by Irene @BioIrenea with the great contribution of several scientists and technicians in our lab. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
🎉 Congratulations to La Trobe's SABE researchers on their success in the 2025 ARC Discovery Projects! 👏 Dr Nicholas Reynolds, Dr Sarah Annesley, Prof Thiruma Arumugam & Dr Eugeniu Balaur received $655,607 to explore protein aggregates in viruses, advancing virology &…
🔈Are you an Australian domestic student looking for an industry PhD scholarship with a BIG top-up! Do you want to work with @CSIRO and abalone farmers to help breed abalone resistant to viral infections!! Please re-tweet!! 👇
Amazing work! Congratulations @yuning_hong @owyongtc @shouxiang_zhang and co-authors!
Shout out to first authors @shouxiang_zhang for driving all the #TeamMassSpec & #bioinformatics work @owyongtc for all the chemistry and the beautiful crystals. Thanks to co-authors @LukasEnglmaier @Xiaojing_Sui @BegonaHeras @WhiteLab6 @organotronics @LIMSLTU @CeMM_News @bio21
1/2 🔬 Congratulations to LIMS & @SABE_Latrobe’s A/Prof Yuning Hong, Dr Shouxiang Zhang and Dr Tze Cin Owyong, whose world-first research creating a chemical tag to study disordered proteins in living cells has been published in @naturemethods! Read more: latrobe.edu.au/news/articles/…
Excited to share that my first-author review paper with @Dr_Ivan_Poon & @KhaThanhPhan , is published in @TrendsCellBio! It covers the biogenesis and functions of apoptotic-cell-derived EVs. Please read it here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1jzXg3QxxSux… @LabACDC @LIMSLTU @latrobe @SABE_latrobe
