Fay Newton wins a 'Best Poster Prize' at EMBO Cilia2022 in Cologne!
Fay was selected to give not just one but two posters at EMBO Cilia2022 in Cologne 04-07/10/2022. Her lay abstract got her selected to give a poster at our opening Patient’s Day to patients, families and patient advocacy groups for the ciliopathies. She also presented a poster in the main session with over 220 posters, she represented Mill/Megaw labs perfectly, on how cells die in Rpgr mutant photoreceptors and generalizabilities for the inherited retinal dystrophies more generally. Could this lead to a common pathway that could be druggable? We are really grateful to Fight for Sight for funding Fay’s work, the UKRI MRC and Wellcome.
Not just a swish plush Dom from Cologne, Fay also gets an invitation to speak about her work at an upcoming UK Cilia Network e-symposia (back by popular demand)… watch this space for dates!
