Spot our second speaker for Monday's #ChatSci! Nikolay Bogoychev will take the stage - find out all about his topic in our previous posts now! - Information on our lovely other speaker, Diana, can be found on the event or Insta now! - Monday May 20th, 6:30pm, The Dining Room at Teviot SU - find out all the information on the event now. - #edinburghuniversity #edinburgh #whatsonedinburgh #cheers

Meet Nikolay Bogoychev, Monday's speaker for #ChatSciSeries8 - See our previous posts for information on both amazing speakers! - Monday May 20th, 6:30pm, The Dining Room at Teviot SU - find out all the information on the event now. - #edinburghuniversity #edinburgh #whatsonedinburgh #beach

Second speaker announcement for Monday's #ChatSciSeries8! - Meet Nikolay Bogoychev: "I am a postdoc at University of Edinburgh working on high performance computing and machine translation. I like languages, logographic writing systems, game theory and GPUs. I (try to) make things run faster and enjoy (premature) optimization. In my work I try to combine my passion for languages with my optimization skills, but even if I can't I still can enjoy both separately, right?" - Come and see both amazing speakers tomorrow evening at 6:30pm. - Monday 20th May, 6:30pm at Teviot SU in the Dining Room (2nd Floor). - #whatsonedinburgh #edinburgh #intersci

#ChatSciSeries8 - This amazing image is what our first speaker Diana Sa Da Bandeira gets to look at all day! - Join us at ChatSci this Monday for her chat about Regenerative Medicine - Picture 3: 3D immunofluorescence image of the blood vessel (dorsal aorta), where the first blood stem cells are produced during mouse development. The blood vessel consists of an endothelium (magenta) covered with pericytes (yellow), that communicate actively which one another. - Monday 20th May 6:30pm at Teviot SU in The Dining Room (2nd floor) - See previous posts for more!

#ChatSciSeries8 is this Monday! Don’t miss your chance to see Diana Sa Da Bandeira chatting about her work in Regenerative Medicine! - Picture 2: Preparation of blood progenitor assays, where you test the capacity of blood cells in embryos to make colonies (stem and progenitor cells make colonies). Using this technique, I can understand if mutations in PDGFRβ (KO) affect blood stem and progenitor cell production. Spoiler alert: it does! - 6:30pm at Teviot Student Union in The dining Room on the second floor - Stay tuned for more pictures related to Diana’s work and more speaker info.

Don’t forget #ChatSciSeries8 is on this Monday at Teviot Student Union in The Dining Room at 6:30pm! - We have an awesome line-up this week starting with our (rather familiar) first speaker, Diana Sa Da Bandeira 🙌 - “I’m nearly done with my PhD in Regenerative Medicine, where I’ve been studying the role of the microenvironment in the production of the first blood stem cells during embryonic development. I’m looking in particular at the importance of the communication between two cell types (pericytes and endothelial cells) through the PDGFRβ signalling pathway. Understanding all the cues required to make blood stem cells during development will lead way to produce them in a dish for clinical use. Other than research, I’m interested in science communication, public engagement and education (and some occasional parties).” - Picture 1: Poster presentation at a vascular biology conference in Maastricht (April 2019). - Stay tuned for more pictures and speaker information!
