Meet the Early Stage Researchers
STARSTEM is a vibrant project with collaborators who are at different stages of their research careers – from PhD students to senior professors. Some of our early stage researchers have set up social media accounts to share their personal story. They share their day to day experiences of life as a scientist and researcher.
Great to present some work today at the midlands @nc3r conference discussing reducing animals used in research @starstem2020 #ECR #STEM #stemcells
Growing beating heart cells from stem cells! This new field of research is challenging but damn it’s rewarding
The next Chapter. Moving on from my PhD in Stem Cells and EV for osteoarthritis to using induced pluripotent stem cells as an animal free model to investigate hypertrophic cardiomyopathy using CRISPR techniques
That’s that- the thesis is submitted to @cambridgeuniversity for examination! Now onto the @uniofnottingham to research cardiac hypertrophy!
A great pleasure to publish our work @lottsthompson on horse derived EV as a potential therapeutic for lameness in horses! Have full a read here https://bvajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/vro2.22
So what do early stage researchers do when we’re not in the lab? Follow the link to find out https://starstem.eu/summer-days-of-the-starstem-esrs/ @starstem2020 #ESR #summerdays
Health and safety first kids! A mask to mask meeting in like with covid learning all about MSOT laser safety before our studies really begin @kaggieguy @kneesurgeoncambridge @karinnewell
Histology is only for strong people! #hardwork #histology #starstem2020 thanks to Maddalena Ghelardoni
I am delighted to have been published in the Cambridge BlueSci special 50th edition magazine. If you would like to read my article “A Sprinkling of Gold Dust - Fairytale or Modern Science?” or the other great articles

This work couldn’t have been done without the amazing work by the managing editor @sarahlula4

Playing with Microtissues 😍
We used these supercute dishes to seed our cells and create a little system of 3D culture.

To do lists seem to be the best way of getting jobs ticked off at the moment. It’s far too easy to try and do hundreds of jobs and not finish any of them with this odd working schedule- WE WILL BEAT COVID
Nice to tick off a big section of EV harvest while we’re in this lockdown! Great fun for any time we can get in the lab at the moment!!
Haaaaaappy Christmas to everyone ❤️🍾🎄

Sunday in the lab, climbing the mountain because there are no bus, with the storm coming while you are without an umbrella. Can it get worse?

We have the pleasure to present the webinar "Next generation GISM" which will be held on October 22nd from 9.00 to 12.00 (CEST).
We will compare public and industrial research on issues concerning MSCs.
The webinar is free for everyone. You can therefore also spread it among your non-GISM members.
