Today was the "soft-launch" of our media campaign to get all Irish health insurers fund cancer immunotherapy #FundImmuno . I have been overwhelmed with the support (over 5000 shares in a day, just on LinkedIn). Thank you. Laya Healthcare do us right!

Super excited to share my PhD work, out now in nature. Here, myself, Lydia Lynch, and all my wonderful co-authors explored the link between circadian rhythms, energy homeostasis and innate T cell function. A thread: 🧵 nature.com/articles/s4158…

Check out our new commentary on this interesting study by Justin A. Guerrero and team on Glut1 overexpressing CAR T cells. Excited to see what comes next for these metabolically enhanced T cells!

Congratulations to Karen Slattery on wining the translational research award for her work on ovarian cancer and ascites suppression of immunity via lipid remodelling. Well done Karen! And thank you to Irish Cancer Society and Donal Brennan and Marcia Haigis in this collaboration

Lydia Lynch (@lynchielydia) 's Twitter Profile Photo

Our paper Science Immunology shows certain lipids are responsible for the immunosupression of ascites & propose blocking lipid uptake thru SCARB1 may help immunotherapy success in ovarian cancer. Wonderful to collaborate with Donal Brennan again, Marcia Haigis & super postdoc Karen Slattery

Scientists have uncovered how abdominal fluid called ascites in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer suppresses antitumor cytotoxicity in natural killer cells. Learn more in Science Immunology: scim.ag/4iXrKB1
