To celebrate the #WDSD2023, Trisomy 21 Research Society has organized a multi-talk webinar. Join us to enjoy and discuss the data obtained from the young scientists of our society 🗓️ March 21, 6 PM CET t21rs.org/2023-world-dow…

Happy #WorldDownSyndromeDay from the Tybulewicz Lab! We are sporting our odd socks to mark the occasion 🧦 #WDSD2023

Super excited for our next WDSD celebration on March 16th 2024! The event is open to anyone with Down Syndrome and their families/carers - please share with anyone who you think might like to attend! Spaces are limited so get your free ticket now to secure your place!

Congratulations to @Leonard_deBoer for a beautiful study that has finally been published in Nature Communications. T cell migration requires ion and water flux into the leading edge. See Leon's thread for more details.

Researchers from the Crick’s Tybulewicz Lab and @UCL have identified a gene that causes heart defects in Down syndrome. By reducing the gene’s activity, they partially reversed these defects in mice, making it a promising target for future therapies. crick.ac.uk/news-and-repor…

We are looking forward to seeing everyone at WDSD on Saturday March 16th! A reminder that you must have a ticket in order to attend on the day. We currently have a long waiting list so please check you can still attend/have gotten a ticket ahead of time.

On Saturday we held our annual World Down Syndrome Day event at The Francis Crick Institute. We heard from brilliant scientists on topics such as the thyroid, Alzheimer's disease, otitis media and the LonDownS Consortium study. 1/7

For #WorldDownSyndromeDay2024 Crick researcher Rifdat Aoidi from Tybulewicz Lab spoke to actor @Sarah_gordy. Sarah spoke about here experience participating in research projects and attending our own celebration marking #WorldDownSyndromeDay on Saturday crick.ac.uk/news-and-repor…

Happy World Down Syndrome Day 2024 🎉 Thank you to everyone who joined us for a fun-filled day of talks and activities at The Crick Institute on Saturday. We can’t wait to see you again next year! #WorldDownSyndromeDay

Happy #WorldDownSyndromeDay2024 from everyone in the Tybulewicz lab! Once again we are celebrating in our odd socks!🧦 #lotsofsocks

crick.ac.uk/careers-study/… Exciting opportunity for a PhD student to work jointly with Rachel Edgar 💙 and our lab The Crick to study the role of water potential and bio-condensates in T cell biology.

We have a vacancy for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join our lab The Crick to study congenital heart defects in Down syndrome. To follow on from work we published in Science Translational Medicine. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… crick.ac.uk/research/labs/…

Exciting EMBO meeting on Chromosome Segregation and Aneuploidy on the beautiful shores of @LagoMaggiore meetings.embo.org/event/25-aneup…

Well done to Rif for an excellent presentation at the Crick Annual Science Meeting. Rif presented her work on causative genes of CHD in Down Syndrome, a project shared with Eva Lana-Elola which is now published in Science Translational Medicine! DOI: 10.1126/scitranslmed.add6883

Congratulations to Rif and Eva on winning a Science Achievement award at the annual Crick Awards in recognition of all their hard work and a fantastic paper! 🥳 science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Researchers at the Crick, @MRCharwell and UCL Queen Square Institute of Neurology have identified the genetic cause for the most common type of hearing loss in children with Down syndrome. crick.ac.uk/news-and-repor…

A look back on a 2024 highlight in the Tybulewicz lab! Damaris successfully completed her viva in November has been enjoying her first months as Dr Damaris Bennett in the lab 🎉🥳

nature.com/articles/s4146… Congratulations to Joshua Biggs O'May and other members of the team for a great paper showing that water influx is needed for T cell activation and division. An unexpected role for water. Likely to be true in many other cell types too.
