We are excited to share that as a joint initiative with Australian Vascular Biology Society AAS we are launching our very first online seminar series. Join us tomorrow for our first seminar with Natasha Harvey! Don’t forget the new and updated link! 🚨

#APS2024 attendees: “Immunometabolism: At the Crossroads of Novel Gut-Neural-Cardiorenal Pathophysiological Mechanisms of Disease” is tomorrow (Sat., 4/6) at 8:30 a.m. in Room 103. Come on down! Learn more: ow.ly/KRZm50R6Kx6 #WeArePhysiology

If you’re at #APS2024, come to room 103 to hear Dr Quynh Nhu Dinh Dr Quynh Nhu Dinh share her work on intermittent fasting and how it modulates chronic cerebral hypoperfusion-induced disease pathways. Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment American Physiological Society

All the way from Australia, representing our Centre at #APS2024 American Physiological Society! #WeArePhysiology Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology La Trobe MAPP Postgrads La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment

Come find Bill Antony (Bill) Vinh at poster #903 if you want to know more about the role of IL-18 and IL-18R in a model of angiotensin II-induced AAA! #APS2024 American Physiological Society Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment

And now, the posters!!! Who better to be next to than my friend Chandana, sharing her NAVKIDS work! CKR #ISNWCN

Melbourne representing at the International Vascular Biology Meeting in Amsterdam! Dr Maria Jelinić Prof Andrew Murphy Cardiovascular Biology and Disease Research IVBM 2024 🫀

Grateful to be presenting our recent study on the sex-specific effects of intermittent fasting in metabolic syndrome at #IVBM2024 Australian Vascular Biology Society

If you are at La Trobe Bundoora today, come down to WLT2 and join us at the LIMS EMCR Symposium! We started the day off with exciting flash talks, including one from PhD candidate Donia! La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science LIMS Fellows Society La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment Donia Abeid

Happy to have contributed to this beautiful paper led by Julian Malchow Helker lab! Particularly happy that my endothelial Erk sensor fish made with Ben Hogan did its magic! Always cool to see new mechanisms for asymmetric Erk!

Today is the day! Baker-LTU Symposium is starting at WLT-1. Right now, we have division lead Dr Helena Kim sharing her lab’s promising work on using a cell therapy for ischemic stroke. La Trobe University La Trobe Researchers Baker Institute La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science

We often hear about rodent models when studying CVD, but today division lead Kazu Okuda Kazuhide Shaun Okuda highlights the strengths of using zebrafish to identify and characterise vascular modulators targets and therapeutics. La Trobe Researchers La Trobe University La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science Baker Institute

Postdoc Tien Nguyen Tien Nguyen shares the project she’s been working on since her PhD! She explores how an herpanese deficiency can protect against atherosclerotic plaques in ApoE mice. La Trobe University La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science La Trobe Researchers Baker Institute

Starting off the flash talks is our postdoc Hericka Galvao Dr. Hericka B. Figueiredo Galvão showing us how we can leverage multiomic single cell sequencing and machine learning to uncover the role of B cells in hypertension. La Trobe University La Trobe Researchers La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science Baker Institute

Kicking off Session 2 is division lead Dr Amy Baxter Amy Baxter sharing her lab’s work on exploring cell death and clearance in blood vessels to harness therapeutic potential. La Trobe University La Trobe Researchers La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science Baker Institute

From selected abstracts is Crisdion Krstevski Crisdion Krstevski presenting his PhD work on multi-omic single-cell transcriptional and epigenetic mapping and using this to uncover mechanisms driving reversible cardiac fibrosis. La Trobe University La Trobe Researchers La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science Baker Institute

A great talk from today from Gab discussing single-cell omics and spatial mapping on the sex-specific mechanisms governing cardiac fibrosis and hypertrophy 🥳👏🙌 Gabriella Farrugia 🇲🇹 🇦🇺 Baker Institute Pinto Lab

Woo!! Congratulations to Hericka and Mikaela for taking out Best Flash Talk and Best Poster presentation at today’s Baker-LTU symposium! Congratulations to all the presenters and organisers for today! Dr. Hericka B.
