Thank you so much to everyone who joined us this weekend at @newscilive for #StitchNStem! We had so much fun speaking to people of all ages about #science and the amazing things we can do with #StemCells. Inspiring a new generation of scientists and embroiderers
#STEM
What a fantastic day at #NewScientistLive 2024! Some incredible creations from our many, many participants today. It was a pleasure to engage with them all! We’ll be back tomorrow ready to see new and returning guests on stand H45 #StitchNStem @KCL_CCGT @KCLBMBioscience

Excited to share original work from my PhD! We describe the disruption of ocular developmental pathways contributing to microphthalmia using iPSC-derived optic vesicles! A big thank you to @PhilippaHarding and @Dr__NO and to my supervisor @mariyamoosajee!

Our @stemcellreports on disruption of common ocular developmental pathways in patients with #microphthalmia reveal increased extracellular matrix #ECM encapsulates the early eye with increased cell death!

Highly engaging talk from @wendy_bickmore teaching us to look beyond the protein coding regions of #DNA to understand #InheritedEyeDisease and #genetics

Another brilliant talk at #UKEGG21 from @linda_lako in diving deeper into cell populations of the cornea using single cell #RNAsequencing to understand #gene differences between cells and using this knowledge to help patients

First time I co-chair a session with @DLimaCunha for the annual meeting @UKEyeGenetics #UKEGG21. First AGM as secretary of @UKEyeGenetics. Challenges accepted!

Beautiful talks during ECR session @UKEyeGenetics annual meeting! Can't wait to see these results published to read in more details their work! @PhilippaHarding #UKEGG21
Dr Philippa Harding retweeted
Fantastic start to #UKEGG21, learning about how far we have come in the world of #genetic #research into #InheritedEyeDisease, with Mendelian and complex genetic basis. Thanks to @anthonykhawaja for teaching us about risk factors in #glaucoma and identifying them in populations

Looking forward to hearing from our Early Career #Researchers, followed by our keynote talk from @tara_moore7 about her #research into #GeneTherapy for #CornealDystrophies #UKEGG21
#ECR #PostDoc #phd #PostGrad #scientists #VisionHealth #SharingKnowledge
Looking forward to hearing all of the inspiring talks tomorrow, and presenting my #PhD #research into PAX6-associated microphthalmia

The @UKEyeGenetics team are ready to welcome you tomorrow! We had a wonderful dinner with our keynote speaker Prof Tara Moore, @DenizeAtan, @MariyaMoosajee, @neeru_vallabh & organisers @PhilippaHarding @DLimaCunha @CecileMejecase @h_knight5- Its so good to be back in person!

Editor’s pick from our Aug issue: @JEintracht @GeneDrElizabeth @MariyaMoosajee & coll from @UCLeye @uni_mainz_eng found that translational readthrough of #ciliopathy genes BBS2 & ALMS1 restores protein, ciliogenesis & function in patient fibroblasts

There are >100 genes that cause microphthalmia, anophthalmia & ocular coloboma @Dr__NO @PhilippaHarding @JEintracht @UCLeye are finding new genes using #zebrafish & #stemcell models to improve diagnostic rates for patients & develop new therapies! @JeansforGenes @MACSthecharity

It’s day 3 of the #MACSAwarenessWeek and today we want to tell you about Microphthalmia, which refers to an eye which has not developed fully and is smaller than expected. It can occur in one or both eyes, and affects 1 in 7,000 births.
