We are so excited to launch this NHMRC CRE to generate new insight to, and ultimately new therapies for, lymphoedema! @CCB_Research @BenjaminHogan13
Australia’s first Centre of Research Excellence in #Lymphoedema and Lymphatic Regeneration has launched, led by Prof @BenjaminHogan13 and Prof @DrNatashaHarvey, it's been dubbed a global “paradigm shift” and a major step forward.

Excited to share our latest research. Led by Sonia Shah this work demonstrates how the ubiquitin ligase NEDD4L keeps Gasdermins D & E in check to prevent inflammatory cell death and tissue damage. @nhmrc @arc_gov_au @CCB_Research

Absolutely thrilled to receive an @AIPS_science 2025 SA Young Tall Poppy Award! Wouldn't be possible without a great team, dedicated patient advocates, & funding bodies that allowed me to connect with scientific/non-science groups to communicate research. unisa.edu.au/media-centre/Re…

Great to see this work led by Janni Manning @CCB_Research now out. The paper reports an unexpected finding that the deficiency of NEDD4-2 ubiquitin ligase in the kidney reduces blood glucose levels and corrects metabolic parameters in a diabetic model.
