The Gordon’s Research Seminar (GRS) is a 2-day symposium which takes place before the larger Gordon’s conference (GRC), and is designed specifically for PhDs, postdocs to share their research in a laid-back but supportive environment. 🎤👩‍🔬

New @SciSignal findings show that cells called leukocytes have a surface “coating” that can be modified during inflammatory conditions, such as #psoriasis, revealing how immune cells are recruited to sites of inflammation. scim.ag/43fjlDV

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/sc…

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 🦠 🏃🏻‍♀️🩸 @douglaspdyer @SaundersLab1 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Putting all of this together, we propose that immune cells have a heparan sulfate glycocaylx which must be shed to enable migration into tissues. A new mechanism regulating immune cell migration!
