Boosting. Please RT and share! Looking forward to finding our next colleague. A PhD background in anything from immunology to bioanalytical chemistry to immunoengineering would be a good fit for this position. It's a very cool project, in my admittedly biased opinion. 😊

Happy to share our latest collaborative work with KammLab and Kate Chiappinelli @chiappinellilab.bsky.social Nature Communications where targeting an epigenetic factor in tumor vasculature augments IFN response; blood vessels thus become like "honey to a fly" and permit CD8+ T-cell entry. rdcu.be/c9SFy

Excited to share our new story explaining how macrophages use nitric oxide derivatives to shut down Toxoplasma evasion of cell-autonomous immunity. Congrats to Xiaoyu Zhao and the team! link.springer.com/10.1038/s41467…

Our lab's first paper is official! Super proud of and grateful to the team for everything that went into this project. Check out the video to learn more about how the microbiome contributes to growth and immunity during intergenerational undernutrition.
