This is my new paper on menopause ageing monocytes and how HRT can prevent immune ageing :) So happy that is out :) qmul.ac.uk/media/news/2025/m…
Hormone replacement therapy helps restore immune function in menopausal women, reducing inflammaging and preserving monocyte function. open-access

The ticket office says it was like this yesterday. Why hasn't a fix been put in place for people who use watton at stone station? I have missed my meetings now as I didn't have a way of buying a ticket.
@GNRailUK just had a very irritating experience at your train station in watton. All the machines can't take card as the internet is down. I asked at the ticket office what to do, and very unhelpful she said just use the Trainline app. Why isn't there a plan in place for this?
What is with this poor customer service? Can you encourage your staff to speak and be polite and maybe show id. If I was alone on the train as a female I would have been quite intimidated and afraid.
@GNRailUK just had two very strange experiences with ticket inspectors on your trains in two days. The one today didn't speak, just had their earphones in and pointed at things. The one yesterday was wearing no identification at all and then took five minutes to get his id out.

We're pleased to share our new preprint on modelling dynamic immune responses in human skin! It has been a tremendous effort from everyone involved and we're excited to continue this new direction of research in immuno-competent skin models. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
@SheprethWPark do the bats hibernate over winter? Or can you still see them over the Christmas period. Thanks

Our newest paper is out! 🚨 We have uncovered multiple cellular senescence-associated defects in melanocytes and other cell types in Familial Melanoma Syndrome (FMS) patients with a p16 defect that makes them more susceptible to developing melanoma ⬇️

The newest researcher investigated the biology of skin cells taken from people who don’t produce the senescence-related compound p16.

If you are between 40-60 years and are happy to come to Whitechapel for a one off blood donation, please do get in contact to received more information
I am so excited to start my new @Barts_Charity funded project investigating how menopause and HRT impacts upon immunity. But we are in need of volunteers to help with the study :)
I just want to add my thanks to my lab members, colleagues and funders for the support since setting up my lab in 2020 :)
Just back from annual leave to see that I have been promoted to Senior Lecturer :) @blizard_inst
