Our BRC's Mirella Spalluto and Prof Paul Elkington have launched a new collaboration to find the treatments of the future.

It brings together scientists from University of Southampton, other academic centres and partners to speed up progress in 3D cell modelling.

So... given we've not seen a bin lorry for 3 weeks (or any form of reliable service for months) when is SouthamptonCC planning to refund some of the council tax?

We recently argued for a 3D multiscale approach to placental evolution doi.org/10.1093/evolut…. Our new paper begins to deliver this by comparing convergently evolved placental villi and discussing in relation to the maternal-fetal conflict hypothesis doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2…

70% of medical diagnoses! 🧡🔬

With all the modern microscopes we have, sometimes you just have to go back to the basics🔬

#MothersDay can be a particularly difficult time for anyone affected by #PregnancyLoss or #BabyLoss .

You can make a dedication to a special mum or grandmother who will be missing a special baby this year 💙🧡

Another fun evening painting at the University Hospital Southampton 💙 wellbeing hub with Jennie Maizels. What better way to end the day!

😯🔬 Did you know that vEM can help us understand how the information is transmitted through the nervous system and the brain to understand how 'predator-escape response' and 'ciliary locomotion' are coordinated?

#MothersDay can be a really difficult time for those who have experienced #PregnancyLoss or #BabyLoss

Sending a card can bring some comfort and let them know you are thinking of them.

We have a beautiful range of cards in our shop.

We have a great postdoc opportunity in the lab to study recently discovered placental nanopores (see doi.org/10.1016/j.isci…). Transferable skills in imaging, physiology and NMR-based metabolomics are on offer! Apply here jobs.soton.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?r…

New toy alert in the BIU Southampton, the Katana from ConnectomX giving us the ability to gather 3D data from our scanning electron microscopes.

I got to try something new today, blacksmithing at Anvil Forge. So much fun, plus the Anvil I was working on was from the 1840's!
