I am delighted to share that I have awarded the @advancehe.bsky.social Advance HE Fellowship @universityofleeds.bsky.social @envleeds.bsky.social

Feeling honoured to be supported in my research by The Royal Society, The Royal society Grant will help my group research greatly. Our recent publication in lnkd.in/epUUwTTT will be having some interesting follow up - Let's go. @universityofleeds.bsky.social @food science and nutrition at UoL

Congratulations to Dr AlMutairy for her PhD viva today. Very proud. Thank you very much Dr Emer Fitzpatrick and Dr David Buckley for examining. @leerobertslab.bsky.social and @richard Cubbon co supervisors @envleeds.bsky.social @licamm.bsky.social

Here's a link to my latest research on how endothelial Piezo1 regulates cerebral blood flow and impacts brain function 🧠 It was a tweet; now sharing it here on 🦋 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Endothelial Piezo1 channel mediates mechano-feedback control of brain blood flow - Nature Communications

On-demand blood flow increases are essential for brain health, but how flow recovers is unclear. Here, the authors show that brain perfusion triggers vascular Piezo1-mediated mechano-feedback that pro...

Fat Cells have a memory, possibly explaining why it’s so hard to lose weight & keep it off. Some of the negative epigenetic changes seen with obesity are present even 2 years after bariatric surgery despite weight loss. #Obesity #MedSky #NutSky www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Adipose tissue retains an epigenetic memory of obesity after weight loss - Nature

Stable epigenetic changes indicate the existence of an obesogenic memory in mouse adipocytes that primes cells for pathological responses in an obesogenic environment and potentially contributes to th...
