New preprint w. @EvaMariaFunk & René Hägerling + lab @ChariteBerlin: we made a new tool to label lymphatics: anti-LYVE1 single-domain antibodies, AKA nanobodies (👇 video of kidney lymphatics, nanobody in white) Many other potential uses! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… @UCL_ICH_Kidney

Examined a pie chart of skills PhD students possess. Wonder what slices we’d add or expand for postdocs, professors, and higher roles?

Wicked two weeks at @CLF_STFC on their shiny new @3i_inc lightsheet microscope 🔬 @EvaMariaFunk & @GideonPomeranz and I acquired 3D images (>6000GB?!) from cleared kidney tissue + organoids, thanks to @robmlees & @spireitesarah Even checked out our data in virtual reality 😵‍💫 – at Harwell Campus, England

Research images like this are changing our understanding of kidney disease… Through this photo, researchers have a way to study inflammation in the kidney, by capturing the lymphatic system of an adult mouse kidney in action. Isn't it fascinating? 😲 #KidneyDisease

For yesterday's #worldkidneyday, here's an image of kidney lymphatics (+ glomeruli) by @EvaMariaFunk: @berlinnovation researcher/med student Plenty learn about these structures and their therapeutic potential in kidney disease. But we & others around the world are getting there!

This #WorldKidneyDay we're highlighting some of the amazing research that is changing our understanding of kidney disease. This image from @‌EvaMariaFunk is helping scientists to study inflammation in the kidney! @UCL_ICH_Kidney
This black and red image shows the lymphatic system of an adult mouse kidney, which is very similar to in humans. It is bright in places and dark in others. The lymphatics are a draining network that help the body remove unwanted fluids and molecules from tissue, like those that cause inflammation. The system is also vital for the movement of immune cells throughout our body. This image was taken as part of research to understand how a certain protein is turned on and off across this system within the kidney and how that may impact inflammation in kidney disease.

📸This morning, we announced the winner of our image competition, A Moment of Discovery. Now meet the research team behind our winning image. They're studying how #cancer can grow & spread through lymph networks in the body, with a new 3D imaging technique. #RareDiseaseDay2023

Image 3 show a vibrant black, pink, white and yellow structure. It was created using a new 3D imaging technique to view the lymphatic system (blue) in high detail to better understand how cancers grow and spread. Cancers can hijack lymphatic systems, normally tasked with waste disposal, to spread tumour cells around the body. However, these systems are incredibly hard to see and therefore study using traditional microscope techniques.
