Today I had the chance to visit the research lab and the team led by Miriam Merad, MD, PhD, a Franco-Algerian cancer immunologist. What talent and dynamism in the service of science!

Excited to share our new paper in Nature Immunology on how TREM2+ monocyte-derived macrophages in lung cancer reduce activity of natural killer cells that fight tumors. We provide potential dual targeting strategies to improve antitumor immunity. Read here: rdcu.be/damS8

I feel honored and privileged to have attended the mind-blowing lecture of Dr. Türeci today at Lipschultz Precision Immunology Institute, invited and introduced by Miriam Merad, MD, PhD. She is outstanding and inspiring with such a thorough vision of vaccination design and distribution to the world! #womeninscience

(IMHO, if Tennessee legislators really wanted to improve access for medically-underserved Tennesseans, many other policies may be more effective: improving Medicaid reimbursement, expanding loan repayment programs, strengthening mobile care/specialty outreach/telehealth, etc.)

Our paper is out! So proud of the collaborative efforts resulting in these important findings: CD4-help and DC need to re-reprime progenitor exhausted CD8 in situ for the success of PD-1 blockade in liver cancer rdcu.be/deCG9

Academic Medicine will say “diversity is important,” while actively maintaining anti Black spaces. Dr. Robert Ray Jr endured a harmful and toxic learning environment without support from institutional bodies claiming to care about DEI work.

Representation in medicine goes beyond just increasing diversity for the sake of inclusivity. It positively impacts patient outcomes, reduces healthcare disparities, and fosters a more compassionate and effective healthcare system. Embracing diversity and promoting

AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY The real story behind Alice ball is that Working in the early 20th century, she developed a means for injectable treatment for leprosy. However, Arthur Dean's name became attached to the work because Ball was only a graduate student at his university and he was a white male

Today, I taught my students about slave patrols which was the organization of men whose job it was to capture enslaved people who tried to escape or did not “obey” slave codes. This organization evolved into what we now know as the police (1/2)

My HOT TAKE of the day is that we need to talk more openly about signs that your therapist sucks so people can find a better clinician sooner and/or not give up on therapy as a whole.

We need to stop depicting mobility aids as a sign/symbol of inability to be or do something. My mobility aids aren't a sign I'm incapable of doing a job or living a full life. They give me the opportunity to do my job, to live a full life.

Ground breaking analysis here. As you get older your ability to tolerate low wages and lack of a stable position drops. I finished my PhD at 27, started my postdoc at 28 and will start my independent career at 34. But I’m one of the lucky ones. Change is badly needed.

📢 NEW PAPER 📢 Most cancer patients with solid tumors do not respond to immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors. Miriam Merad, MD, PhD's team now report that IL-4 can drive treatment resistance in #LungCancer, and this may be reversed with an allergy medication. medicalxpress.com/news/2023-12-a…

Very excited by our results nature showing that IL4R signaling is strongly enriched in myeloid cells that infiltrate mice and lung cancer lesions nature.com/articles/s4158…
