Announcement: For your calendars the #𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗧𝗔𝗦𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝗔𝗯𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝗠𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱!
We hope to see all our #microfluidic and #microsystems community in Adelaide, Australia so have your abstracts with us by then!
Had the pleasure of meeting Prof @SuYiTsai1 today at National Taiwan University to discuss research and future collaborations. I also loved their innovative glove recycling system to help save the environment. #GreenLab @BakerResearchAu
Super proud of my PhD student @ManijehKh2020 for presenting her work and bringing home a poster prize from the 5th #ISMB2024! Thanks to @AuSMBSoc for the travel support. @BakerResearchAu @RMIT
Had an amazing time at #ISMB2024 in Taiwan! Great to catch up with Aussie colleagues, make new connections, and share exciting research. Glad we made it despite the typhoon! @AuSMBSoc @BorisMartinac @Charles_D_Cox @ManijehKh2020
It was a pleasure attending and presenting our work on aortic stenosis at @atheroaussie meeting this week.
Had a great dinner with Aussie colleagues as we gear up to host #MicroTas2025 in Australia. @mcbreadmore @PriestCraig @GuijtRosanne @DrAnnaW_lab
Kicking off #MicroTas2024 in beautiful Montreal, chaired by Prof. @Aaron__Wheeler & @JunckerLab! @DrHangTTa @DrAnnaW_lab MingLi
Excellent keynote presentation by prof Roger Kamm of @MIT on modelling neurological disease on a Chip @MicroTas2024
These findings highlight the significant role of tissue mechanics in regulating immune responses. Understanding this could lead to novel therapeutic targets for treating chronic inflammatory conditions and preventing excessive coagulation.
We explored how mechanical forces—specifically cyclic stretch and substrate stiffness—affect NETosis. We found that increased stretch and stiffness amplify NETosis and sensitivity to NET-inducing agents via activation of Calpain, PI3K, and FAK pathways.
Thrilled to announce our lab's latest paper led by @ManijehKh2020, "Cyclic Stretch Enhances Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation," has just been published! link.springer.com/10.1186/s1…
