A lot of Immunologists are (justifiably) obsessed with T cell exhaustion.

Very few discuss memory inflation 📈 despite its relevance to #vaccines and #aging

For everyone joining the #fediverse in this next wave of the #TwitterMigration, here are a few of my favorite #feditips:

- #Hashtags are a must! Use them and follow the ones that interest you.
- #Follow lots of people, then trim back if you need to.
- #ContentWarnings are a kindness, but how/when you use them is up to you.
- Use #filters to make your feed/life better.
- Everyone here loves an #introduction post.
- #Favorite = You like the post.
- #Boost = Others should also see the post.

Postdoc position! Pls boost!

The Broad Institute provides a uniquely stimulating environment to advance and apply data science in collaboration with MIT, Harvard, and hospitals. (1/2)

A very nice movie of HUVECs stained with our live cell actin probe SiR-actin. It compares YES kinase depletion by siRNA to a control siRNA in a collective migration assay.

Read more about YES kinase, its VE-Cad phosphorylation and endothelial adherens junctions in this very nice article in Nature Cardiovascular Research by the lab of Lena Claesson-Welsh:

👩‍🎓🧑‍🎓Job alert! Join my group and work on understanding how force-transmitting protein oligomers at microtubule ends are held together. I have two positions open: one funded by QMUL for three years (home tuition fees covered): https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/dissecting-the-self-interaction-interfaces-within-oligomers-of-human-kinetochore-proteins-binding-to-microtubule-ends/?p152465

The other position is joint by QMUL and China Scholarships Council, for four years, for an eligible Chinese national currently residing anywhere in the world: https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/dissecting-the-self-interaction-interfaces-within-oligomers-of-human-kinetochore-proteins-binding-to-microtubule-ends/?p152465

Hello Mastodon Science. My lab at Yale studies innate immune defense against respiratory viruses. Some of our recent work has focused on viral interference, a phenomenon in which one viral infection can temporarily protect from another. This article discusses the field, and is thought provoking in light of the current resurgence of multiple viruses. https://www.science.org/content/article/competition-between-respiratory-viruses-may-hold-tripledemic-winter#.Y3fz7XHT75Y.twitter

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes are key players in the tumor #microenvironment and for #Immunotherapy ...but how do we bring these #Lymphocytes into it? Here are some suggestions... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36366354/
