New diabetic kidney disease research led by Mater Research & UQ Medicine find that glucose variations contribute to kidney injury in diabetes via increased CD8+ T cell production of KIM-1. #Forbeslab ▶diabetes.diabetesjournals.org/content/early/…

We've built collections of transcriptome data from whole blood to tissue myeloid biology or dendritic cell subsets

Meet Kristen! Kristen Radford is a visiting #Fulbright scholar from Mater Research Translational Research Institute Fulbright Australia working with our senior scientists to use culture of dendritic cells to improve cancer vaccination 💉🧫 Fun fact: Kristen surfs weekly in Australia! #MeetTheScientists

Check out this great feature highlighting groundbreaking work on developing cancer vaccines, conducted by our PI Dr. Nina Bhardwaj and colleagues! #cancer #vaccines #PersonalizedMedicine

Very excited and inspired chatting about the future of cancer vaccines with Ugur Sahin at SITC2021 Mater Research Translational Research Institute Fulbright Australia

All Prof women who have applied for NHMRC funding: The Australian Equity in STEMM team are completing their position paper (incl the 1st 3 yr outcomes of the Investigator, Ideas & Synergy Grants). We plan to submit it next week. If anyone is happy to provide a quote pls DM me 🙏.

FUNDING SPOTLIGHT: Australian health & medical research is in crisis. Australia’s current investment into #health & #medicalresearch through the NHMRC + MRFF equates to ~0.68% of total health expenditure. ASMR’s recommendation is to immediately double Australia's investment 1/10

For a 2nd year in a row, NHMRC Ideas research grant success rates have fallen below 10% We miss out on the potential discoveries of the other 90% - not because there’s a shortage of excellent research to fund, but because there’s a shortage of $ to fund excellent research

ALL OF THIS!!!

Delighted to share our latest paper, the result of a great collaboration with Mark Chong

Today is United Nations International Day of Women and Girls in Science. In 2022 it’s time to shift the focus from recruitment (which is not the main issue) to retention (which is an ongoing problem). This is the current situation in Australia👇🏻, lack of funding of women the biggest cause.

Snow Medical has taken the difficult decision to suspend the University of Melbourne from its prestigious Snow Fellowship program. We are committed to working with the University to ensure real change happens. Read our statement here: snowmedical.org.au/wp-content/upl…

Congratulations Ee Shan and O'Keeffe Dendritic Cell Lab! It was a privilege and a pleasure to work with you on this.
