#whyscience Day36 This one slide from David Altshuler at the @the_asci @JointMeeting says everything. It shows the extraordinary increase in life expectancy for people with cystic fibrosis over the past few decades. Here’s what science—and academic research—can do.

ERCSG Recap: Day2 (Friday) of the ERCSG meeting was packed with a remarkable series of high-caliber talks! 🌟 🧪 Prof. @PuellesVictor on tubules and cystic kidneys 🧬 Prof. Rachel Lennon @RLWczyk (I absolutely love her talks!) on podocytes, Alport syndrome, and podocyte biology…

Our lab's #first manuscript from our #first #PhDstudent @KatieLowles is now out on #bioRxiv! Check it out 👇🏻 #macrophage regulation of fibroblast #collagen deposition through #circadian rhythms. #ECMatrix @KarlKadler @HussellTracy @wtccmr @MCF_UoM biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Living with Alport Syndrome can be tough, but you’re never alone. 💜 Whether you need advice, support, or just a chat, Susie, Hannah & the team are here to help! 📧 [email protected] – Reach out anytime! Together, we build a brighter future 💙 #alportuk #alportsyndrome

Our spotlight on collagen- formation, function & role in kidney disease is out now in @NatRevNeph A wonderful collaboration with @MoumitaBaruaTO & Vanessa De Gregorio #ECMatrix #Nephro @wtccmr @FBMH_UoM @UofT nature.com/articles/s4158…

So pleased to share the first study from our @CRUK @MCRCnews RadNet collab led by the amazing @NabinaPun98 with @TravislabUoM and Prof. Illidge @UCytlak @CRGGlasgow @LydiaBeckerIII @wtccmr biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

This is a very cool project!! Come join the team 😊

We are looking for a research technician to work on an exciting collaborative project with @RLWczyk using a combination of fly and mammalian models to understand basement membrane physiology during development and disease. jobs.ac.uk/job/DKN082/tec…

Woohoo! Excited for 2 days of matrix discussions @wtccmr - Refreshments waiting after your journey !!

Today, we celebrate the innovative and impactful work being done in @FBMH_UoM! A special shoutout to Joan Chang for their dedication to supporting and celebrating postdocs—not only in Manchester but across the UK! 👏 Thank you, Joan, for all that you do! #PostdocAppreciation…

@ASNKidney News: Excellent presentation of our results by Dr. Daniel Gale (UK) during the Late Breaking News Session yesterday at @ASNKidney, showing the results of treating 3 Alport syndrome patients with a small molecule from @eloxx_pharma. My company, @NIPOKA_Podocyte, was…
