Great to see this out. Congrats to our wonderful team
Uncovered: early molecular warning signs of inflammatory bowel disease reveal the condition can begin before symptoms appear and continue silently even when patients appear well.

Glad to see this out😄 With Wayne Cawthorne, @AndreSamson15 & @pseudokinase
Looking forward to seeing more discoveries of how PTMs regulate protein shapeshifting during necroptotic cell death ☠️ Check it out here 👇

Check out our latest from @WEHI_research A joint effort with James Vince’s lab and our RMH colleagues. Super proud of this epic built on ~1100 western blots. Full credit to the leads, Jiyi Pang and Aysha Al-Ani, our collaborators, and my coconspirators including @AndreSamson15

Very proud & excited to be socialising our preprint uncovering new mechanisms of epithelial cell death in IBD! Massive 4-year collab across @WEHI_research & @RMH. Big thanks to the patients involved in this study and support from @NHMRC & @KR_Foundation

Hot off the press! 🔥
In our latest @NatureComms paper, we used in vivo imaging to track EV formation in the bone marrow microenvironment. We found that circulating EVs correlates with tissue damage caused by leukemias like AML!
@WEHI_research @latrobe @AusCellDeathSoc
Researchers have made a critical discovery that could help develop a future blood test to potentially monitor the level of tissue damage in patients with diseases like #cancer.

Pleased to see this work in the wild… watch this space for more on CAMK signalling!
Delighted to present 2 preprints with my co-captains @ChrisH_NZ @Dr_CaMKkinase We tell you everything you thought about CaM regulation of CAMK kinases might need a rethink

#MELS2024 That's a wrap!! Thanks to all our sponsors, delegates, speakers, poster presenters, panel members, judges, and vendors! We all had a great day. See you for an even bigger one in 2025!!
After our inaugural symposium and official launch of the Melbourne Emerging Leaders in Biomedical Research Society in 2023, we are excited to announce our networking symposium will be back later this year
Look out for abstract submission and registration very soon! 🔬 🧬
Incredibly relieved, overwhelmed and grateful to be awarded an NHMRC EL1 Fellowship to accelerate my work on calcium signalling and kinase regulation
Huge thanks to my mentor @pseudokinase and all the other legends for their support @WEHI_research, @MIPS_Australia & @dobson_lab
Massive congratulations to all the recipients of @NHMRC Investigator Grants, including our 17 remarkable researchers who are leading innovative projects covering malaria, blood cancer, the ubiquitin system, Parkinson's disease, brain cancer and beyond.

Biomolecular Horizons 2024. Join this amazing line up of speakers. Abstracts due 12 March 2024. bmh2024.com/call-for-abstrac… . @bmh2024Melb, a joint conference of @IUBMB, #FAOBMB & #ComBio in Melbourne 22-26 September 2024.
A mammoth and incredibly important piece of work for the field. Top stuff Shene Chiou, @aysha_h_alani @AndreSamson15 🔬
Excited to share our preprint that spatially profiles the necroptotic cell death pathway in mouse and human tissues.
With @pseudokinase + @WEHI_research we pinpoint necroptotic changes during inflammation, dysbiosis, immunisation and in IBD patients!

Fantastic work Michael Currie, @_jamesdavies, @rachel_a_north and @dobson_lab 💪

Awesome to see this story out! Congrats @YanxiangMeng and @SarahGarnish for steering the ship on this project. Was nice to contribute
Researchers have gained unprecedented insight into how a ‘killer’ protein is unleashed during a form of programmed #celldeath.
Brilliant research led by @YanxiangMeng and @SarahGarnish from the lab of @pseudokinase, published in @NatureComms.

Make sure you lock in this awesome conference in 2024 and sign up to the career development forum if you are an ECR
Join the global scientific community at Biomolecular Horizons in Melbourne in September 2024 and submit an abstract to contribute to this important conversation. Visit bmh2024.com for more information #bmh2024

WHY do so many people carry this MLKL polymorphism?!🧐
Heart-felt thanks to the brilliant @SarahGarnish, Kate Martin, Maria Kauppi, @pseudokinase and lab, @WEHI_research, @nhmrc and many more for indulging this burning question over many years. 🔥😅👏

Incredible turnout for our first EMCR event @MelbourneELBR #MELS2023
Thanks to our amazing speakers, generous sponsors and everyone who came along
Thrilled to see our vision of an EMCR society within Melbourne begin to flourish at our inaugural event.
Thanks to the @MelbourneELBR committee for making it happen. Legends!
Proud to co-organise the Inaugural 2023 Melbourne Emerging Leaders in Research Symposium @TheFlorey The event provided key insights from career experts and ample networking opportunities for EMCRs across Parkville - the day was buzzing with excitement . @MelbourneELBR
