Very happy to share our new study in Nature Communications revealing the key features of lung #inflammation during human and murine #schistosomiasis Lydia Becker Institute UoM Biology, Medicine and Health rdcu.be/c84g3

Parasitologists! 🪱🦟 SAVE THE DATE - Thursday 1st June is the NVP Scientific Spring Meeting 2023, in Utrecht. All flavors of Parasitologists in the Netherlands welcome! parasitologie.nl/home/nieuws/vo… #nvp #parasitology

New paper from the marvellous Bridgious, a meta-analysis of helminth infections and interactions with the microbiome. frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… #immunology #microbiome #helminths

Congratulations Alice Costain on passing your #PhD viva with flying colours - never in doubt! So proud of you 😊. Thanks to Maizels Lab & Dave Thornton for making the experience a fantastic one, & Dr Grace Mallett for an awesome cake! Lydia Becker Institute 🪱👩🏻‍🔬FBMH Doctoral Academy 🌎 Hermelijn Smits

As a student in a resource-limited setting, Bridgious Walusimbi shares the importance of collaboration for his microbiome PhD Bridgious Grencisgroup Lydia Becker Institute MRC/UVRI and LSHTM Uganda Research Unit Read it here: nature.com/articles/s4156…

Hello, This is the first tweet for the HypoVax Global knowledge hub. The focus of our knowledge hub is on vaccine hyporesponsiveness and understanding population-level variations in responses to vaccines. Check out our website at hypovax.org.

What!? A blood fluke with its own microbiome? 😱 check out our cool pictures in this new article by Fabio Formenti and team academic.oup.com/jid/article/do… Cambridge Vet School Cambridge University

Delighted to share our preprint, focuses on why host immunity drives fungal allergic disease. Utilises alot of single cell tech to show that dendritic cells are integral. This has been an amazing ride - real team effort with co-authors. Take a look! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Very excited to share this study highlighting the importance of early spore growth in allergic inflammation. #aspergillus #asthma #dendriticcell #fungalasthma

Latest paper from @dwdenning newly estimates invasive fungal diseases at 6.5 million with 3.8 deaths annually thelancet.com/journals/lanin…

Controlled experimental infections with #Schistosoma mansoni reveal how the human #immune response to #schistosomiasis changes over time. Read this research and more in the July issue of Science #Immunology: scim.ag/7zC

In Science Immunology this week, Emma Louise Houlder, Koen Stam, Maria Yazdanbakhsh, Meta Roestenberg, & al. at LUMC Parasitology track how immune responses evolve over time in #schistosomiasis using controlled #Schistosoma mansoni infections of human volunteers! bit.ly/SciImm_adl1965

Interested in immune responses in human schistosomiasis? 🪱 Koen Stam and I found an inflammatory symptom-associated response at week 4 that developed into a regulatory/Th2 response from week 8. Thanks to brilliant team led by Maria Yazdanbakhsh & Meta Roestenberg👩‍🔬👩‍⚕️🩷

If you're looking for a PhD, & passionate about #helminths & #mucosal #immunity, please apply! This project in Edinburgh will investigate intestinal/lung #inflammation, tissue damage & repair during murine #schistosome infection (deadline 10th August) 🪱🤓findaphd.com/phds/project/m…

Also incredibly happy to have recieved funding from the NWO veni scheme. Really looking forward to more investigating a novel vaccine/therapeutic strategy for schistosomiasis whilst learning a lot of exciting biology! nwo.nl/nieuws/van-alg…

I'm looking for 2 Postdocs and a Technician to join my team in Institute of Immunology & Infection, investigating #mucosal #immunity & #inflammation during #schistosome #infection. If this sounds exciting to you, please apply! (deadline 19th Sep) 🪱🔬🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat… elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candidat…

Last week I was in Berlin for the #WORMVACS annual meeting. Thanks everyone for great discussions and on the use of controlled human infection models, novel platforms and target discovery for worm vaccines! More info: wormvacs.org
