Always blown away by the quality of the immunology research in this session!01 Dec 2025 12:58 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6wi7hwc5k2nhttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3m6wgkebnms25So delighted to have had our first visitor to the lab, Javier Perez Garcia from CNIO, teaching me and Katrine new techniques!01 Dec 2025 12:29 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6wgkebnms25https://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3m6jidzyg7c2dMy mum’s response when I described the academic publishing system 😂 I mean, she’s not wrong!26 Nov 2025 08:56 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3m6jidzyg7c2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3m2h6rb6jws2lThis allegedly Labour Government are enacting new laws to suppress our democratic right to protest. This is outrageous. Their refusal to acknowledge the Palestinian Genocide and their suppression of protest against it will go down in history Fuck the government https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/oct/05/police-to-get-new-powers-to-crack-down-on-repeated-protests-says-home-office?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other05 Oct 2025 13:19 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3m2h6rb6jws2lhttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lyhskj4iyc2pSuch a nice change of pace to be spending time here visiting Guadalupe Sabio’s lab! Also, such a fun place to do some experiments on my birthday before heading into the city for dinner with friends!10 Sep 2025 08:23 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lyhskj4iyc2phttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lygf6nqrf225I know this is meant to be my professional account so excuse me for a moment when I say this. Fuck the British government. Fuck the gutless warmongers that we voted in, and who are complicit in the genocide being committed in Gaza https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/sep/09/uk-not-concluded-israel-committing-genocide-in-gaza-lammy-says?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other09 Sep 2025 18:51 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lygf6nqrf225https://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lycozkkajc2gIt’s sickening to see the scenes in London. The police arresting peaceful protesters in their hundreds. This chilling overreach by a supposedly forward-thinking government has set a dangerous precedent & we need to start reminding them that they are public events & not our overlords08 Sep 2025 07:36 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lycozkkajc2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lx2ve3ahos2zAre people still using Bluesky much for science or have you gone elsewhere? Noticed the #immunosky feed isn’t updating anymore & not seeing that much science on here lately 🧪23 Aug 2025 11:43 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lx2ve3ahos2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lwlv7e6yd22vIf you’re @iuis-online.bsky.social Congress in Vienna & love adipose tissue/immunometabolism, let’s have a coffee! Also, come check out our work by coming to my talk at 3.20pm Monday 18th in Hall A. #Immunosky 🧪 #IUIS202517 Aug 2025 12:30 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwlv7e6yd22vhttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lwjf2pryhs2bWaiting for the flight to @iuis-online.bsky.social Congress in Vienna, with @juanquintana.bsky.social for a week full of immunology and strudel! Glad that my talk is at the start of the week so I can then kick back and enjoy all the cool science!16 Aug 2025 12:36 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwjf2pryhs2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lwccaxbup227I've just done an ELISA and the kit recommends a 4PL analysis... I have no idea how to do this and the company (very helpfully) doesn't give any information on how to do this. Has anyone got any experience of this and could give a hand? Thanks! #immunosky 🧪13 Aug 2025 16:57 +0000at://did:plc:uk72v7rbblcdbg6hcm55alql/app.bsky.feed.post/3lwccaxbup227https://bsky.app/profile/mcsinton.bsky.social/post/3lusph4ruv22bSo excited to go to the IUIS and present our work on adipose tissue and systemic immunometabolism!
