Prof Martin Knight presented an invited talk at a special primary cilia session at the Back2Back meeting organised by Prof Sally Roberts. This excellent research meeting at the Robert Jones & Agnus Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital in Oswestry focused on back pain and intervertebral disc with a special cilia afternoon session with talks from Dr Sue McGlashen (Auckland) and Dr Angus Wann (Oxford).

Sue worked with Martin at The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital as a PhD student and post doc before moving to New Zealand in 2000 to work with Tony Poole. Angus was a post doc in Martin's group on Wellcome Trust, EPSRC and ARUK grants investigating cartilage primary cilia.
