Please check out Maarten Hulsmans new paper uncovering how inflammatory macrophages drive atrial fibrillation 👇 ❤️⚡️ I especially like the alignment of mouse and human atrial single cell gene sets! #cardioimmunology #electroimmunology science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Very nice paper (Richard Jones, Sanjay Prasad) decoding cardiac energetics in ischaemic heart disease, with transcriptomic/metabolomic profiling resolved according CMR ischemia status. Hints at mechanisms underlying the neutral results ISCHEMIA and REVIVED.👏 nature.com/articles/s4416…

Congratulations to rising star Aaron Henry on his work to understand cardiovascular involvement in IgG4 related disease, with a stellar presentation at ESC today - many thanks also to world-expert collaborator Emma Culver. Much still to learn about immunoglobulins in the 💜

Such a pleasure to welcome Jana Grune to Oxford to speak about immune cells and ventricular arrhythmias (via Matthias Nahrendorf lab) today - thanks Jana for the fantastic talk! ❤️⚡️🇬🇧🇺🇸🇩🇪

Over the 12 days of Christmas, we're treating you to our greatest hits from the past year. In 1978, Dr Peter Mansfield gave Tomorrow's World viewers a demonstration of the first full body prototype device for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). #bbcarchive2023hits

🚨My PhD work is out in JACC Journals !! Using a translational approach, we highlighted the importance of MCP-1 and IL-6 and their role in macrophage recruitment and polarization! 🫀 jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.…

How to be a good mentor? Wise words from Prof Stefan Neubauer, a recipient of Sir Andrew McMichael Medal for Mentorship 2024, and an exceptional mentor to many leading academics globally. bit.ly/3Wi62PM Zahra Raisi-Estabragh Eylem Aslan-Levelt Ntobeko Ntusi Steffen Petersen @DrAJLewandowski

Funded! Thanks to British Heart Foundation for 5-year funding to apply spatial biology techniques - from whole heart to subcellular scale - to understand human heart disease RDM Oxford. The lab will be recruiting a post-doctoral scientist - please reach out to discuss informally. 🫀🖥️🔬

Academic cardiology is a tough career but leads to interesting places: here, extending healthy mouse lifespan by a quarter 🤯nature.com/articles/s4158…. Congrats Stuart Cook and colleagues - what's the endpoint for the clinical trial? A whole body MRI-based age index? 🧲

Atrial fibrosis drives AF, whilst current AF ablation treatment creates additional atrial scar and new arrhythmic substrate. Here, engineered immunotherapy from Noor Momin, Ph.D. Maarten Hulsmans and colleagues reduces fibrosis, maybe breaking this cycle: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Great to see friends and colleagues from across the world in London for #ESCCongress2024 - please join me and Alida Caforio tomorrow morning 0815 for the latest on myocarditis and immune cells in the heart ❤️🔬⚡️

Good news for HFpEF patients today with positive trial data for finerenone #ESCCongress2024 - however, as with other medicines, benefit is diminshed in EF >60% subgroup, again highlighting the need to better understand this group. 🫀🧲

Two nature papers on macrophage action in heart failure! Wohoo and congratulations Kory and Deepak! doi.org/10.1038/s41586… doi.org/10.1038/s41586…

We are delighted to share our latest findings today in nature. We describe cardiogenic regulation of sleep after cardiac injury. “Myocardial infarction augments sleep to limit cardiac inflammation and damage” nature.com/articles/s4158…

This was a great meeting - a pleasure to finally visit the CNIC, and thanks to all for hosting! #cardioimmunology

We're hiring! Seeking an outstanding postdoc to join us in Oxford to spearhead computational approaches to spatial multiomic datasets from precious human samples. Please reach out for discussion on the opportunities and alignment. 🖥️ ❤️ 🔬 Link 👉 my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…

Thank you to Andrew Lewis for having me speak at the CV Med Seminar at RDM Oxford today. If you’ve got experience with single-cell or spatial transcriptomics I’d recommend getting in touch with him - several fascinating projects on offer.

Thank you James Cranley for visiting RDM Oxford -and for the outstanding seminar and discussions! Much to learn about cardiovascular disease by applying spatial biology technologies 🫀🔬

We are delighted to announce that Professor Paul Kubes will deliver the Newton-Abraham Lecture 2025 on 19 May, 16:30-17:30. All members of the University of Oxford are welcome. More details here: talks.ox.ac.uk/talks/id/91d4b…
