Impressive data here: shows how vaccines have clearly broken the link from cases to hospitalisations and death in U.K. Link not broken in US because of lower vaccine uptake.

We're recruiting! We're looking for lab-based scientists and physicians to work in our dynamic and exciting neuroscience group astrazeneca.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/Careers/… astrazeneca.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/Careers/job/UK…

BREAKING NEWS: The 2021 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded jointly to David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian “for their discoveries of receptors for temperature and touch.”

Puzzled by the 'omicron is mild' rhetoric given the rapid increases in hospitalisations in Gauteng province. SA govt is increasing hospital capacity, especially for children to prepare. Deaths are a lagging indicator, but please tell me, what about all this is reassuring?

Fantastic hosting a the incredibly talented group of PhD students and PIs for the Marie-Curie EU BonePainII annual meeting at AstraZeneca's new facility. What a great 3 days! #astrazeneca #azneuro

Great to see publication of David Rubinsztein's work in collaboration with azneuro describing the action of VCP D1 activators on autophagy. This continues to be a promising area to identify new medicines for neurodegeneration #azneuro AstraZeneca nature.com/articles/s4146…

Another example of great collaboration resulting in elaboration of the role of TNF in sensitising colonic afferents with dependence on TNFR1 and p38MAPK #azneuro AstraZeneca uni cambridge physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP…

I thought today was tremendously powerful and moving. RIP and thank you Queen Elizabeth II.

I lecture final year undergrads on the cellular & molecular basis of pain. The tale surrounding the role of the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.7 in pain never fails to produce some confusion, but a new paper, in my opinion, brings clarity. cell.com/neuron/fulltex…
