Myrianni Constantinou

Thank you @InSuesName for inviting @MyrianniC and me to your fantastic fundraising event at @upsilongallery — raising awareness for vital brain tumour research. Our work at @blizard_inst is generously supported by In Sue’s Name.

Delighted to see this story published, great work of a very talented PhD student @MyrianniC with contributions from other lab members @blizard_inst @QMULBartsTheLon @QMUL and collaborators!

We are thrilled to share our latest work, a collaborative effort with @TreutleinLab, in Nature (nature.com/articles/s4158…). We introduce CHOOSE, a powerful screening system within cerebral organoids, through which we identified developmental defects associated with autism. 🧵1/7

Congratulations to ⁦@MyrianniC⁩ for defending her beautiful PhD work on cerebral organoids as glioblastoma model. A wonderful day, we are all very proud! 🙏to examiners Paolo Salomoni and @RitaSousaNunes for a great discussion!

What a great day at #BTRresearcherworkshop22 Thank you to our Research Centres of Excellence @PlymUni @QMUL @imperialcollege and @BrainUKOrg for sharing some great presentations and insight into your work. Together we will find a cure. We look forward to learning more tomorrow!

Happy to share our lab’s latest pre-print! Led by @uzquiano_a & @AKedaigle, this single cell multiomic atlas of cortical brain organoid development has led us to exciting discoveries, and we hope it will enable many more in the future! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Supporters, #BrainTumourResearch staff & researchers got together for a minute's silence this morning to mark the start of #BrainTumourAwarenessMonth 💛 Our researchers also laid floral tributes at the Walls of Hope at our Research Centres 💟 Read more ➡️ bit.ly/3vykoP8

March is #BrainTumourAwarenessMonth 💛 We are leading the way with a programme of activities to raise awareness, demand increased national investment and fundraise to support vital research to find a cure for brain tumours ❤️ Get involved this March ➡️ bit.ly/3K3cWiX

Starting the #InternationalDayOfWomenInScience, with @Johanna_A_Joyce "Believe in yourself - and never let anyone tell you no!" @Joycelab @unil @OncoUNILCHUV @Ludwig_Cancer

Researchers from @HSCRB and @broadinstitute generated #organoids with 3️⃣ different #AutismSpectrumDisorder risk genes and found that neurons developed at the wrong time. 🕓 bit.ly/3GtCVhk
