Our lab has started a weekly journal club covering classic papers in immunology. First up, Mosmann and Coffman use murine CD4+ T cell clones and establish the Th1/Th2 paradigm. Journal of Immunology in 1986.

"The derivation of two distinct types of Th cell clones raises the question of the total diversity of T cell phenotypes."

Nice central complex you have in there 😜 – convergent evolution or shared descent? Any gene expression or developmental evidence for or against?

(And did Nick Strausfeld already contacted you? Or Frank Hirth and their MHB gene expression markers?)

"Before 2002, no in-depth information was available on human CoVs (HCoVs) and their zoonotic potential. The emergence of the first highly pathogenic HCoV in 2002, SARS-CoV-1, the subsequent epidemic MERS-CoV, and the pandemic SARS-CoV-2, opened “Pandora’s box” on CoVs." I remember my virology textbook (~1984) had a half-page on coronaviruses. We've come a long way, but not done yet.
Very interesting review from animal pathology perspective. #virology #coronaviruses

"We propose a solution inspired by biological neuron dynamics that makes the communication between RNN units sparse and discrete." https://openreview.net/forum?id=lJdOlWg8td

Now you got my attention – thanks for sharing!

By the way the event-based approach to computational efficiency without compromising performance seems Delbruck-inspired. Amusingly, in the paper the DVS128 Gesture Dataset is used ... very fitting indeed.

Submissions are now open for the Working Memory Symposium (June 20-23)!

The deadline is May 31st, and the link and additional details can be found at our homepage: https://wmsymposium.org.

Share with all the early-career researchers so we can hope to feature them and their work!
