The dream team from 2010 - @marklythgoe has not aged a day, just like @ProfBrianCox. Must be something in the water at Cheltenham...

It was a brilliant and very humbling talk -the work you are all doing is phenomenal and thank you thank you @bowelbabe for leading this
Deep sea divers, engineers and intensive care medics develop a new medical device to help patients breath. One not to miss. As seen on BBC news last night. @CheltSciFest
Having an amazing time at the Cheltenham Science Festival. Come see our 3CPAP in the Discover Zone!! #breatheeasy #CheltSciFest @CheltSciFest @CABI_UCL @marklythgoe
One of my favourite parts of @CheltSciFest along with @SciFestChzboard
Hottest ticket in town. A must!
Getting ready to chair The Perfect Pint event @CheltSciFest - we will tasting and talking the science of 5 beers at the @deyabrewery

@SciFestChzboard staring off my @CheltSciFest experience wonderfully with some post-drink nibbles and networking. Come meet me and @hannahvictorius in the VIP room today-Sunday to talk about our @CABI_UCL shenanigans, including how I’m going to electrocute her for our talk 👀👩🏼🔬
Brain control live with @CABI_UCL Saturday 1:45 in the Pillar Room. Volunteers needed!! @CheltSciFest @SophieKLScience @hannahvictorius @IanH_Neurosci

The archway is up, the "artery walkway" is up, the sun is shining and hundreds of school kids have descended upon our site. Guess this is it! #CheltSciFest

Look forward to joining an amazing group - @doctor_oxford @sarah_blagden and @marklythgoe - on Saturday at @CheltSciFest in this session curated by our #CancerRevolution advisor and @sciencemuseum fellow, the inspirational Dame @bowelbabe
Dame Deborah James @bowelbabe has worked tirelessly to curate two superb sessions at this year's @CheltSciFest:
Can We Cure Cancer in Our Lifetime: Sat 11 Jun, 4pm
The Future of Cancer: Sun 12 Jun, 2.30pm
She's too unwell to chair & it is my honour to do so for her. Pls come!

2 weeks left until @marklythgoe @ruidiyu @SophieKLScience and myself take the stage, to tell you all about the different ways the brain can be controlled! Lots of live demos and a hella lotta SCIENCE! @CheltSciFest @CABI_UCL

A newly developed technique allows researchers to remotely active neurons with the aid of microscopic magnetic particles. Research by @marklythgoe laboratory

Another great paper published in Advanced Science from @ruidiyu @marklythgoe and the magnetic targeting team @CABI_UCL - with a cover image in today's issue!

ALT Cover image from the scientific journal Advanced Science, depicting an artistic impression of a novel technology. An astrocyte cell attached to a blood vessel is bound to multiple magnetic nanoparticles, which are attracted to an external magnet. This attraction causes them to move and exert a force on the astrocyte, thus activating the cell.
Mark Lythgoe retweeted
Scientists @CABI_UCL with @uclbiosciences have developed a new technique that uses micromagnets to remotely activate brain cells; the discovery in rats could lead to a new class of non-invasive therapies for neurological disorders, including #depression standard.co.uk/news/uk/scien…
