Great start to #ENDO2026! Enjoyed the excellent session on #AdiposeTissue biology and was pleased to present my poster on adipose-expressed tau in #metabolism and #thermogenesis. Looking forward to more great science and discussions! #Endocrinology #NTU #BBSRC @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social

Arrived in Chicago for #ENDO2026! The poster had its first viewing at border control before the conference even started 😂. Excited to present our work and hear some great talks. Thanks to #BBSRC, @socendocrinology.bsky.social & @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social for making this possible. #NTU

Fantastic visit to Indiana University’s Department of Biology, supported by a @ukri.org #BBSRC travel grant and @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social. Highlights included learning new #Drosophila metabolic techniques, presenting my work, and visiting the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center. #NTUMetabolic
The final published version of our paper is now available in Cell Communication and Signaling. We investigated how #miR-10b-5p regulates adipocyte lineage commitment and differentiation through targeting of #Gata6 & #Tubby doi.org/10.1186/s129... @mark-christian-lab.bsky.social @jhobbs22.bsky.social
Great few days in Harrogate at #SFEBES2026 presenting our work on how miR-10b-5p promotes #BrownAdipocyte differentiation & the #thermogenic program in #WhiteAdipose tissue. Lots of inspiring science and great discussions throughout the #conference. #Metabolism #miRNA @socendocrinology.bsky.social
Excited to present our work at #SFEBES2026 on how miR-10b-5p influences adipocyte #differentiation and #thermogenic programming in #WhiteAdipose tissue 🔥 We uncover a novel miR-10b–Tub regulatory axis shaping #BrownAdiposeTissue physiology. #Metabolism #Thermogenesis #miRNA @ntumeta.bsky.social
Thanks for the inspiration! That is a cut above! 😄✂️
Hang in there! #FlyMas
Loved seeing the #ISTeC Fuddle bringing everyone together to celebrate the holidays 🎉 Wishing everyone happy holidays and a great New Year from all of us — here’s to a bright 2025! ✨🎄 #PhD #Post-doc #NTU #SHiMR
@ntumeta.bsky.social and @ntuneuro.bsky.social joined forces for our #ISTeC Dish Party, a celebration of culture, community, and amazing food. Huge thanks to @marwaalkhalidi.bsky.social for the brilliant organisation and unforgettable food performance 👏🍽️ Thanks to everyone who joined! 🙌 #SHiMR_NTU
Great talk from Prof Delphine Boche on #neuroinflammation and #microglia in #Alzheimer’s disease! #SHIMR_NTU #NTUMetabolic #NTU
We were delighted to host Prof Delphine Boche ( #SouthamptonUni) for our #SHiMR_NTU Seminar! She shared insights into #neuroinflammation in #Alzheimer’s disease and innovative methods to study #microglial cells in the human brain. Thanks to Dr Shreyasi Chatterjee for hosting! @ntuneuro.bsky.social

Happy Birthday, Rosalind Franklin. She captured an X-ray diffraction image of DNA and stated that a helical structure was probable. Watson and Crick then created a detailed model based on her results. They initially received credit for the discovery and were awarded the Nobel Prize after her death.🧪
Was digging around for #Drosophila content and stumbled on this gem. 100% going to try this!
I know it looks ~ridiculous, but a brush-pencil combo (aka “a Darth Maul brush” as my grad student Owen calls it) makes fly-counting/data entry much more efficient! #DrosLife #Drosophila
