After taking a few days to relax, recover, and reflect, happy to announce that I successfully defended my PhD Thesis, Dr Shaw has arrived 🥳 Thank you @jennagregory488 and @WestWingsLab for such a stimulating discussion. I'm so excited and motivated to push this work further!

PhD student Katie is working on a project at SITraN looking at how support cells in the brain can become toxic in MND - and how we can stop that. She talks to us about her background, why she chose research, and how her day unfolds. 📺 Watch her story - youtube.com/watch?v=uxRVNoBX…

Shout out to @neuroshef researchers walking to raise money for MND today. Chloe and Mara are a little concerned about blisters and their preferred #TUOSBigWalk snack is yoghurt bites.

On #GlobalMNDAwarenessDay we are going back to basics and stripping back complex areas of research to help people build their understanding of the science behind #ALS #MND. 🔬🧪 Help us raise awareness and knowledge by sharing our posts!

I am very happy to announce that my essay (about mushrooms and antidotes, of all things) won this year's edition of Science Writing Prize organised by @Official_BSCB! Beyond excited and humbled. Give it a read if you'd like to know more about deadly fungi. tinyurl.com/BSCB2024

Agreed! Fantastic opportunity to network and learn how to clearly & enthusiastically share your research!
Definitely apply if you’re an ECR working on MND! It was a really fun and worthwhile event, with genuinely enjoyable networking (as someone who hates networking). 😇

Wow, incredible imaging!
Huge congrats to @DrPujaM, the winner of our Science Imaging Competition 2023, for her amazing image 'Eruption of Etna's Embers' 🥳🎉👏 Neurons grow in a device (bottom), & 'wires' carrying the electrical impulses travel through tiny grooves to get to the other side (top) 🧵1/6

It’s been a great day sharing the research going on in Sheffield! @Smurfation @AstroMysz @KatyBarnes30
There's just 2 hours left to meet some of the health researchers across #Sheffield and get involved in our interactive activities! We're in the Sheffield Winter Garden until 3pm today. We would love to meet you! #NHS75 #BePartOfResearch

Lots of fun down at the Sheffield Winter Gardens celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the NHS. Brain hats aplenty, even on the garden's more permanent residents! @AstroMysz @KatyBarnes30 @FerraiuoloLab @MortiboysLab @neuroshef
