Check out our paper in Adv Func Mater @AdvSciNews ππ₯³We put a FRET sensor of MMP activity into PEG hydrogels & used fluorescence lifetime imaging to monitor MMP activity around cells. We show real-time MMP activity without genetically modifying cells. π§΅πonlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/β¦

Two strokes about research
1. Itβs a team work - a pleasure to share this day with @PhDockerill & @TovRodero, award dedicated to whole team and collaborators
2. Itβs a roller coaster, hence the value of public engagement to recharge our motivation batteries
Thanks @TheBHF !!
Aiming to improve the identification of faulty valves, so that better strategies can be developed to treat them - the winner of the Research Engagement Award is Professor @pablolamata!
We are thrilled to have @RogerBlack400 and Olivia Arben present this award! #HeartHeroAwards

This week I worked with @ClaireDessalles here in our lab in London. This collaboration has been and continues to be, one of the most exciting and enjoyable parts of my PhD. I know I have found a life long colleague who I will look to work with in the future and an amazing friend

This is such a clichΓ© but this week has shown me 1000 times over that science is about collaborating. What an absolute privilege to be able to come and work with these amazing people, and end a 2 year quest for some data I really needed π
Celebrating a successful week of experiments and awesome cross-channel collaboration with @SuzetteLust from the @GentlemanLab! π°β π«π· π¬π§

So excited that our paper came out yesterday! First, first author experimental paper and it feels wonderful. As always I thank my amazing and supportive supervisors @GentlemanLab @pablolamata and @rebeccajshipley and of my amazing coauthors @HooglandScience @Michael_Norman3
Should we be worried about diffusion in PEG hydrogels? Check out our new paper in @ACSBiomaterials in which we use a combination of experimental & modelling techniques to show that most of the time, it's probably ok π€·ββοΈ. Excellent work led by @SuzetteLust π₯³pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021β¦

This was a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone involved in making it happen! #steamweek21
Absolute pleasure taking part in @CityWestminster virtual #steamweek21 today, talking to young people from local schools about careers in science. We discussed curiosity, failure, work-life balance and how science has surprised us.

Very excited to say that our first paper on in-vitro models of vascular pathology is out. We review the different aspects to consider when developing these models in the lab. Thanks to my amazing supervisors for all their support @pablolamata @GentlemanLab @rebeccajshipley
Check out our new review in @ActaBio where we discuss how to engineer blood vessels for human disease modelling.πcollaboration with @pablolamata @rebeccajshipley and Cathy Shanahan. Watch this space for more exciting work on this project! π₯ @SuzetteLust doi.org/10.1016/j.actbio.202β¦

Yesterday I had the great pleasure of working with @echoukcharity and artist @JennyLeonardArt in a workshop for families working with the echo charity. I had a blast drawing and sharing why I love cardiovascular research! Thanks as always to @KingsImaging public engagement team.
