Lloyd Lab NHLI

🎉🌍 Happy New Year to all our friends and colleagues around the world! Here's to a year filled with exciting discoveries, achievements, and breakthroughs. Let’s make 2025 unforgettable! ✨🔬 #HappyNewYear

👀Check out this @globalimmuno talk by Clare! "Immune-stromal cell interactions regulate pulmonary immunity" 🫁 Clare will be answering your questions in the comment section. Thank you to the organisers for the invitation. youtube.com/live/YvUDgZLte…

Thank you to our collaborators Salman Siddiqui, Katherine Cahill, Joshua Boyce and Elliot Israel for their support and our funders @wellcometrust and NIHR @ImperialBRC for making this work possible. LINK: rdcu.be/enhWW DOI: doi.org/10.1038/s41590…

🚨 Check out our latest work with @RegisJoulia , published in @NatImmunol. We use spatial transcriptomics to identify distinct and spatially-restricted proinflammatory cellular "ecosystems" in asthma. We also explore airway remodelling and impact of therapeutic intervention💊

Today, in honour of International Day of Women and Girls in Science, our Cardiac Function section hosted a gathering for NHLI's staff and students to connect and celebrate together! 👩‍🔬✨ #WomenInScience

🚨 We now have a LinkedIn page! 🚨 Search for: 'Lloyd Lab - NHLI' or follow this link: linkedin.com/company/lloyd-… 👀 We will be sharing some updates on recent meetings, our public engagement project and how we are settling into our new building! Be sure to 'follow' the page!

🚨 We are hiring a Research Associate and a Research Technician! Join our multidisciplinary team at Imperial College London to study severe asthma using cutting-edge imaging & spatial transcriptomics. 📍 Location: Hammersmith Campus 🗓️ Apply by: Dec 16, 2024 Links below...

Beyond the science, Minerva makes a killer tortilla 👩‍🍳 . Minerva is also a dab hand at embroidery 🧵🪡, a skill that has been very useful throughout our craft-based public engagement project (more details soon!).

🔎 Minerva's project focuses on developing a novel 3D airway 🫁 cell culture model to investigate the interactions between epithelial cells, fibroblasts and immune cells.

#MeetTheTeam: Minerva Garcia Martin (@a_minervagm21) 🇪🇸💫 Minerva is a second 🥈 year PhD student and Research Assistant in the Lloyd team. We first crossed paths with Minerva during her MSc Immunology research project in the @HarkerImmuno lab. 👀 Keep reading below...

If April isn't in the lab, you might find her rollerskating 🛼 or crocheting 🧶, perhaps even both 🫣.

🔎April's research seeks to investigate the immune-neuro-stromal communications in asthma with a specific focus on type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s), fibroblasts, and extracellular matrix (ECM) 👩‍🔬.

#MeetTheTeam: April Raftery (@april_raftery) 🇦🇺✨ April is one of the newest members of our team, joining the Lloyd team as a postdoc from @MonashImmunol following the completion of her PhD! More below...

🚨 Over the next few weeks, we are going to spend some time introducing and showing appreciation to some of the wonderful members of the Lloyd team🌟. Keep your 👀 peeled to find out more about who we are 🕵️‍♂️ and what we do!

#Basophils: Regulators of lung #inflammation over space and time. @RegisJoulia and @lloyd_lab @ImperialNHLI discuss study from Schuijs, @MarielaBrenis, @bart_lambrecht et al. (hubs.la/Q02VS8160): hubs.la/Q02VS5hZ0 #InnateImmunity #Asthma #MucosalImmunology

Delighted to share our latest insights in collaboration with @lloyd_lab, now in @JExpMed. We discussed recent findings on the role of basophils in allergic asthma, led by M. Schuijs and @bart_lambrecht Looking forward to seeing where this research leads! rupress.org/jem/article/22…

Postdoc Appreciation Week (#NPAW2024) Wednesday 🌟Balazs Bohar Balazs is a great computational biologist, recently finished his PhD in our group and then became our joint postdoc with @NickPowellLab & @lloyd_lab focusing on transcriptomics, big data and gene regulation analysis.
