Congratulations to MicroAge UoL for being shortlisted for the #BionowAwards2023! The MicroAge Project is investigating skeletal muscle ageing in microgravity in collaboration with UK Space Agency and Kayser Space Ltd. Read more here: liverpool.ac.uk/life-course-an… Bionow


Delighted to be at the Bionow awards dinner where MicroAge UoL, funded by UK Space Agency has been shortlisted for Project of the year. Thank you @livuniHLS and @livuniresthemes for your continued support.


Scientists from @livuniHLS will use the International Space Station to carry out experiments seeking to improve understanding of the muscle ageing process, thanks to £1.4m UK Space Agency funding. Read more about MicroAge UoL here 👉news.liverpool.ac.uk/2023/03/24/exp…



Great job by Anne McArdle at #TERMIS2023 presenting our work on how we are studying 3D muscle constructs in microgravity to understand and modify skeletal muscle ageing on earth. Funded by UK Space Agency and team work across @livuniHLS and Liverpool Uni EEE


Fab presentation CIMA conference by Dr Caroline A Staunton, newly appointed Tenure Track Fellow on her novel and exciting work on the role of aquaporins in muscle and what happens to them as we age 👏👏👏 Institute of Life Course and Medical Sciences @livuniresthemes @livuniHLS


Today we mark the first year of the #NWSpaceCluster, with our anniversary conference at Sci-Tech Daresbury, exploring: - National support - the power of local leadership - Microgravity - Cyber/Space - Regional facilities - Starting a business tinyurl.com/4va5wh5v

Delighted to be at Sci-Tech Daresbury for the 1st Anniversary of the North West Space Cluster with the MicroAge UoL team. Come and chat to us in the exhibiton area to learn more about #muscle #loss in #ageing and #microgravity


Fabulous talk by Libby Jackson UK Space Agency at bluedot 💫 Loved the cheeky MicroAge UoL name drop during the talk 🚀

🛰️With renewed public interest in space-based science, we asked Samantha Jones, Department of Musculoskeletal and Ageing Science, University of Liverpool, UK, for her thoughts on the MicroAge study into healthy aging. 👉 brnw.ch/21wBSxS


Great to see University of Liverpool highlighting the exciting space research that goes on throughout the university for World Space Week. We are immensely proud of our contributions to the UK Space Sector 💫🚀

UK astronauts could soon be launched into orbit, thanks to our agreement with Axiom Space. 🇬🇧 👩🚀👨🚀 We are seeking science and technology projects that could fly to the International Space Station once commercial sponsorship is secured. 🚀 Read more 👉 gov.uk/government/new…


Happy International Day of Human Space Flight 🚀💫 Check out the fantastic space engineering activities that take place here at University of Liverpool ⬇️ featuring our very own Dr Kai Hoettges from Liverpool Uni EEE talking all things MicroAge 💪🏼

Fantastic to see University of Liverpool promoting some it's space research and alumni. Discover your place in Space: liverpool.ac.uk/research/space…

Massive thank you to all involved Anne McArdle Samantha Jones and funders Medical Research Council Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research DiMeN DTP!
