15 years ago we published our initial study showing persistent TSH receptor signaling after internalization. I would have never imagined endomembrane GPCR signaling would become such a hot topic! Check out our review on #endomembrane #GPCR #signaling just out in Trends in Biochemical Sciences

What a way to end the #SfEBES2025 conference! Super happy with the Society for Endo award for best oral comms in the neuroendocrinology and pituitary session alongside other Metabolism and Systems Science (MSS) and Birmingham Adrenal Team awardees #GPCR #melanocortin #metabolism

Where are we now with biased receptor signalling and what does it mean for therapeutic development. See our review here sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Finally got this off the ground. GNAS variant GOF leading to constitutive activity linked to Cushing's. Not the first time this GNAS variant is spotted, but the first time characterised properly for its functional effect. eo.bioscientifica.com/view/journals/…
