I am proud to say that Today, I graduated with my B.S. in Chemistry with a 3.9 GPA. Norfolk State has treated me well and I’m forever grateful. I will spend the next four years at Eastern Virginia Medical School pursuing my M.D. on a full tuition Scholarship! #behold

got invited to do a talk at my high school for a science research panel. can't wait to tell the kids about how i didn't take any science honors or AP classes lol

🚨Excited to share our new study below!🚨 1/7: Childhood mortality from bacterial respiratory & enteric pathogens remains a global concern. But what compromises infants' ability to fight infections? Our study delves into the immune deficiencies intrinsic to early age.

NK cells were first described five decades ago and named in 1975. This brief Perspective from Lewis Lanier UC San Francisco highlights a timeline of a few selected advancements in NK cell biology in each decade. hubs.la/Q02zRMB70 🎥 See video summary: hubs.la/Q02zRKh80

#mBio minireview: Recent studies have quantified the prevalence of co-detections using populations drawn from clinical settings. Here, Chin et al. focus on selection bias issues associated with this study design. journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/mb…

Rebecca Harris up now speaking about the impact of sex chromosomes and hormones on gene expression

Thrilled to have this story out online Immunity!! Together with Joseph Sun Lab, we highlight how dietary fasting improves NK cell anti-tumor immunity and examine the tissue-specific processes that drive these improved responses 🧵cell.com/immunity/fullt…

I am incredibly excited to share our work on the diverse mechanisms and functional responses of type I interferon adaptors via pLxIS motifs! authors.elsevier.com/c/1jJz73vVUPRm…

For 25 years, the Toll-like Receptor pathway was considered a series of distinct protein complexes that drive inflammation. Today, we report that the entire pathway, from receptor to transcription factor, is executed from within one complex—the myddosome. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Talk about sex differences in response to infection! Estrogen receptor alpha controlling neutrophil responses to candida! frontiersin.org/journals/immun…

In vivo evidence that failed pathogens, resulting from infidelities in infection strategies, are the drivers of innate immunity. Krause and Cepko discovered that in the brain, non-productively infected cells are the source of interferon. pnas.org/doi/epub/10.10…

Latest from us. Racial disparities are still pronounced in IEIs. We posit that we need to work on better referral system! Thank you O'Jay Stewart for starting and Patrick O’Conell for finishing the study. Mount Sinai Genetics Columbia Children's Health link.springer.com/10.1007/s10875…

Why is MIT launching a Moon(Mars) shot for Menstruation Science? To solve problems like this: Iron deficiency in women of all socioeonomic classes is rampant. Unbelievable we still live like this in 2024. Lourdes Medrano reports for Undark Magazine: theatlantic.com/health/archive…

WOW!!! Antibiotics directly compromising barrier integrity and causing future chronic illness and immune dysregulation!!! As someone who works on everything that can still go wrong after antibiotic treatment for #Lyme disease, this has my brain humming!!!

Eric Topol Cell Between the recent MS findings, the Long COVID/ME/CFS stuff, and now this, the problem of finding some way to deal with latent EBV (or developing a sterilizing vaccine against it) seems like a hugely important issue for science to tackle.

We report here in PNASNews a simple assay to detect human type I interferon (IFN-I) deficiency. This test could revolutionize the diagnosis and management of patients with autoantibodies against IFN-I and inborn errors of immunity (IEI) affecting the IFN-I pathway!

DCs activate pyroptosis and effector-triggered apoptosis to restrict Legionella infection doi.org/10.1101/2025.0… Dr. Sunny Shin @vazquez_marrero

Finally online - sharing our findings that #Lyme disease bacteria can live in female reproductive organs for over a year and increase risk for gynecological disease!!! We found this increased risk in mice and humans! 😱 (thread below) medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Yesterday our lab member, Vanessa, successfully defended her dissertation. Congrats Dr. Limbert, we are excited for what your future holds!
