Excited about this!

It’s so important for researchers to engage with the public to listen to and answer their questions on vaccination

The new British Society for Immunology toolkit provides practical advice for how to approach these #VaccineConversations 👇

What better way to celebrate #VaccineConversations day than a quiz!!
Thanks Viki Male for making today extra fun 🤩

Really pleased to launch our APPG on Children, Teens & Young Adults with Cancer report tonight.

It's an in depth look into the Cancer Essentials for children, teenagers and young adults with cancer.

To all the young people who fed into this piece - thank you! (Pango and Amy pictured pictured here).

This was a great training session! Great to hear it has been so successful!! #IWD2024

Delighted to have been awarded the UofG Cancer Sciences post-graduate prize for my time as a PhD student at CRUK Scotland Inst 🎉
Thanks to the panel for selecting me!

Thanks to everyone at ‘The Beatson’, especially Ed Roberts and all of the Robertslab for supporting me through the PhD! 💖

Poverty in Scotland is gendered: women are more likely to be living in poverty & find it harder to escape poverty.

For #InternationalWomensDay , we drafted a briefing based on our participation work outlining women's experiences of poverty in Scotland.

The only thing more powerful than the powerhouse of the cell is Mahnoor M!

Fascinating work on mitochondrial mutations in cancer. Fellow immunologists, do not fear; there’s a load of cool immunology in this work too!

👏🏼

This looks great!!

Great to see the Public Health Scotland study results that show no cervical cancer cases have been detected in fully vaccinated women in Scotland following HPV immunisation at age 12-13.

This is more evidence that the #HPVVaccine works & will saves lives. #CervicalCancerPreventionWeek

So excited to provide science engagement support for this exciting event to celebrate collaborative research and patient involvement!! 🦠 👩🏼‍⚕️

Year on year measles cases in children are going up fuelled largely by vaccine hesitancy from vast swathes of vaccine disinformation. Public health bodies HAVE to take disinformation SERIOUSLY as increasingly our children are less vaccinated, less protected & way more vulnerable.

Can’t wait another year for BSI Congress? Well the BSI tumour immunology group meeting is here to help!
