There’s no telling exactly what cures, treatments and discoveries will come out of the labs at the Ragon Institute. But we do know that it’ll heal people around the world and save lives. That kind of innovation and impact is what we do in Massachusetts, and we’re thrilled


My lab (LIL) is hiring postdoctoral associates! If you are excited about fundamental questions about B and Plasma cell biology and its broader implications into homeostasis/disease, shoot me an email (below) or apply directly! Please, feel free to share 😀 recruiting2.ultipro.com/SCR1003TSRI/Jo…

Humans of HBI - Zuri Sullivan: mailchi.mp/brain.harvard.… Nice piece on Zuri Sullivan !

I am excited to share the first story from my lab at Weizmann Institute, led by the amazing AnnaRudnitsky. If you're interested in oral tolerance and how the host handles 'Trojan horse' immune attacks by seemingly harmless entities, this is for you. twtr.to/s70NB /1

Discovery of a set of "I feel good with mommy" neurons in the zona incerta of mouse pups. A superb finding by Marcelo Dietrich 马塞洛 that opens a new fields of inquiry on infant social behavior circuits! Bravo!... Science …science-org.ezp-prod1.hul.harvard.edu/doi/10.1126/sc…

So happy to share our new work that is now out @sciencemagazine: We show how neurons in the mouse zona incerta (ZI) modulate infant social behaviors and learning. This work was led by the AMAZING graduate student Yuexuan Li Yuexuan Li 李玥璇. 🎉science.org/doi/epdf/10.11… #ScienceResearch

Marcelo Dietrich 马塞洛 & his team found the neurons encoding mother–baby bond in mice. Activating them when mum is away reduced baby mice' crying calls & stress hormones. “I see these neurons as the ‘I feel good with mommy’ neurons,” says Catherine Dulac Read more nature nature.com/articles/d4158…

Out today in Science Magazine! We show that rising self-antigen levels during infection give self-reactive T cells an opportunity for enhanced TCR signalling. Regulatory T cells of matched specificity counteract this, thereby preventing autoimmunity. buff.ly/3EXaXQa
