Glad everyone had a chance to enjoy the beach and wave! Hope the weather holds up 22nd Australia and New Zealand Zebrafish Meeting! ACDC Lab is that a Son Goku costume!? Brilliant 😂!

First 22nd Australia and New Zealand Zebrafish Meeting meeting as a lab ✅ We’re super excited to join this wonderful community of researchers and can’t wait to dive into more zebrafish work!🐟🔬 #21stANZmeeting ACDC Lab La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science La Trobe Researchers La Trobe University

Wonderful to host so many cell death enthusiasts for the first day of #JAM2023! Our ACDS President Dr Georgia Atkin-Smith opened the conference with some inspiring words on the importance of collaboration & communication in international research 😍 Some Blonde Scientist - Dr Georgia Atkin-Smith WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute)

Our very first student presenter, Stephanie Rutter La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science, displayed her spectacular imaging work characterising the "Footprint of Death" formed during apoptosis! 🤩🤯 #JAM2023 ACDC Lab

Great to see the boss presenting our lab's great work on apoptotic bodies today at #JAM2023 !! Ivan Poon ACDC Lab Australasian Cell Death Society

Last for our cell clearance session at #JAM2023 is Jascinta Santavanond, presenting her work on regulators of apoptotic cell disassembly! Jascinta Santavanond Australasian Cell Death Society ACDC Lab

Next up was A/Prof Ivan Poon ACDC Lab, demonstrating how apoptotic bodies are not just "the last dance of a dying cell", but can communicate & transmit material to neighbouring cells! 🔬 La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science #JAM2023

Our final speaker today is Jascinta Santavanond Jascinta Santavanond, with a fantastic look at how both intrinsic and extrinsic signals regulate apoptotic cell disassembly! 😍 ACDC Lab La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science #JAM2023

Super proud of PhD students Steph Rutter & Jascinta Santavanond for their fantastic presentations at Day 1 of #JAM2023 ! Brilliant data and beautiful presentations 👏

Always a pleasure to listen to Professor Shige Nagata present his amazing work on phospholipid flippases and scramblases ! #JAM2023 Australasian Cell Death Society

Here's some lightning-fast coverage of our fantastic lightning talks! Six rapid fire presentations from Dr Rachel Uren WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute), Shin-Ichiro Yamaguchi Ritsumeikan University Global, Bo Shi La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science... #JAM2023

Our favourite time of year... cake season!

Celebration time with @Kharyzard on securing a 2024 ARC DECRA! Well deserved recognition and all of us @Hulettlab ACDC Lab La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment La Trobe University can't wait to see the incredible research outcomes that lie ahead.

Congratulations Scott Williams! 🥳 It's been fantastic working with you and the Hulett Lab throughout your PhD!

🎳 Bowling and bonding on a Friday afternoon! Nothing beats striking down pins with the team and enjoying a delicious meal afterward. ACDC Lab #TeamBonding #FridayFun

Congrats to Prof Mark Hulett who chaired the 2023 Vic Young Tall Poppy Selection Committee for @aipolsci and MC’d last night's award presentations at Quantum Victoria. La Trobe University's Dr Adam Culvenor Adam Culvenor was among the 13 Vic awardees. #ytp2023 aips.net.au/tall_poppy_fin…

Joining Dilara C. Ozkocak and Jascinta Santavanond in the La Trobe Bioimaging Platform lab as they share the wonders of cell life and death as part of their PhD research with me. An evening of cutting-edge discoveries and discussions of life, more generally. ACDC Lab La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science

First pub of the year with Ivan Poon ACDC Lab! We wrote a commentary on a recently published study by Xiaoxing Kou and Xi Wei's group looking at functions of pyroptotic EVs released by MSCs. Have a read! authors.elsevier.com/c/1iSlN_YhAs0W…

Latest publication from us, lead by our very talented and hard working PhD student Jascinta Santavanond on Raptinal as a novel PANX1 inhibitor. Make sure you have a read!
