Co-hosted the #HumanImmun24 meeting in Hinxton Wellcome Connecting Science Learning and Training with Petter Brodin Thomas Lab Evanna Mills the past few days. Amazing meeting with fantastic talks and posters Dilys Santillo Ira Sabli

Congratulations to Dr Ira Sabli 🎉🎉🎓🎓🎓 Thanks to the examiners @jetpackjeth and Rebeca Perez de Diego

Join the last infection and immunity seminar of this academic year and to say farewell to Imperial College London at St Mary's campus! The talks will be with Kevin Brown (Kevin Brown) and author Elsbeth Haeman discussing the history of St Mary's. 👇 imperial.ac.uk/events/176777/…

It was an incredible honor to meet, present and discuss our science with the Emperor of Japan at the Francis Crick Institute Embassy of Japan UK The Francis Crick Institute Imperial College London 🤩🇯🇵

Travel grants awarded to Katherine, Stephanie, Dilys and Helen #imperialPaeCH

Congrats Aneesa! Amazing poster with beautiful organoid images 🤩

A lovely afternoon with Centre for Paediatrics & Child Health for science day!

Happy Halloween 🎃🕷️

Genetic clues explain why children develop a rare post-COVID condition. Vanessa Sancho-Shimizu and researchers from our Imperial Department of Infectious Disease and The Francis Crick Institute have uncovered genetic variants which help explain why some children developed MIS-C after having COVID-19. imperial.ac.uk/news/258534/ge…

Excited to share our new paper on the genetics of MIS-C doi.org/10.1084/jem.20… Journal of Experimental Medicine Evangelos Bellos Dilys Santillo

Our genetics findings in MIS-C is out Journal of Experimental Medicine. A fantastic international collaboration enabled by DIAMONDS and COVIDHGE consortia Dilys Santillo Evangelos Bellos
