🔬Be sure not to miss our last seminar of the year!
Featuring short talks by @MegTriesScience and members of the Nottis GlycoAnalytics Hub, followed by keynote speaker @MerryLabNotts with an exciting talk on glycosaminoglycan!
📅 December 9 ⏲️2pm (GMT), 3pm (CET), 9am (EST).

New findings show that leukocytes have a surface “coating” that can be modified during inflammatory conditions, such as #psoriasis, revealing how these immune cells are recruited to sites of inflammation. @MegTriesScience @LydiaBeckerIII @douglaspdyer scim.ag/4nLDNnj

Excited to see the peer reviewed version of @MegTriesScience PhD work on the cover of Science Signaling, great explanation thread below science.org/doi/10.1126/scis…
Excited to share that my first first-author paper is now on @biorxivpreprint !
Here we’ve shown that leukocytes have a heparan sulfate glycocalyx that regulates their recruitment into skin during inflammation 🦠 🏃🏻♀️🩸

Delighted that the first co-supervised student from the lab passed her viva with flying colours and is sporting the new lab traditional hat that will become a glycocalyx of people, invented by student Ivy! @wtccmr
