Thoughtful (and hopeful) reflections on the state-of-play for #ResearchCulture assessment as part of #REF2029 and the #REFPCE indicators project:

wonkhe.com/blogs/is-res...

"We don’t need all the answers for 2029, but we shouldn’t discard the tangible progress made"
Is research culture really too hard to assess?
Yolana Pringle and Ben Tatler make the case that the REF pause should be the moment to build on the most substantial sector-wide collaboration ever undertaken on research environments

Become part of our new MRC Centre, working across Manchester and Oxford to solve a major challenge of our time - how does the immune system become dysregulated by environmental exposures to cause chronic disease.

The liver #transcriptome is highly sensitive to metabolic cues. By characterizing nuclear protein #OGlcNAcylation in mouse #liver during the day, @joanna-chiu.bsky.social &co show how shifts in a nutrient-sensitive #PTM may shape transcriptional regulation @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/3KuS7m1
Model describing how daily rhythmic O-GlcNAc proteome integrates environmental and metabolic signals to regulate transcriptomic and physiological rhythms. Environmental cues signaling through the molecular clock and metabolic cues from feeding–fasting cycles regulate daily rhythms in the O-GlcNAc proteome. Rhythmic O-GlcNAcylation can directly shape daily rhythmicity in transcriptome and physiology. In addition, rhythmic O-GlcNAcylation can also interact with rhythmic phosphorylation. Different forms of crosstalk between O-GlcNAc proteome and phosphoproteome are shown in the middle box. The red solid arrows indicate the regulations described in this study, while the dashed arrow indicates regulations discovered by previous studies. Figure created using BioRender.com.

It's been a great conference hearing all the other research findings and lots of new ideas - food for thought for everyone! Wish I didn't have to leave earlier...

Terrific talk from @tranejoan.bsky.social on collagen homeostasis and turnover. Still a lot of things to be learned about collagen.

Awesome talk (as expected) by @stockmannlab.bsky.social on targeting fibrogenesis, at the #SclerodermaWorkshop - first reunion since #KeystoneFobrosis2022!

Yesterday I attended the #graduation of my #firstPhD student Katie Lowles. What a moment! No longer her PI but still feeling very proud @mcf-uom.bsky.social @mcrcellmatrix.bsky.social

(Oh and I also attended my first ever #GRCCollagen...it was awesome even though I had to leave early!)
