Speakers
Morning Session
This presentation will cover preliminary research into the profiles of both endogenous and recruited brain macrophages following acute ischemic stroke, in a novel mouse model. Here we will explore means of assessing macrophage populations in space and time.
Matthew Pirie graduated The University of Edinburgh following his studies in Neuroscience. Through research with the UKDRI, he studied the post-ischemic macrophage landscape, and has shared this work at multiple national and international events. Since then, he has continued his studies and research in the university, and will graduate from the MBChB course in the next academic year. He has also contributed to the educational field as a curriculum developer, with an accredited certificate in medical education.
