Congrats to co-first authors MeganSoonSF Joshua Lee & Jessica A Engel for leading the in vivo, single-cell genomics & computational work, and to my co-senior, Sarah Teichmann Teichlab for being Bold, Brilliant and Kind! (+ Phillipa Saunders Doherty Institute for the artwork)

Thanks Ashraful Haque for a fantastic zoom seminar yesterday live from Melbourne. However, you forgot to mention the other benefit of cross timezone seminars - drinking red wine whilst presenting!!

This may feel like the longest year ever, but with the 2nd positive bit of vaccine news (with caveats), it's worth reflecting that 12 months ago, no-one even knew SARS-CoV-2 existed, we now have at least 2 vaccine candidates. If that doesn't blow your socks off nothing will!

This is just out from the lab, led by Dr Jessica Forbester, discussing genetic influences of inflammatory cytokine responses during respiratory viral infections. We hope that people find it interesting/useful.

Hopefully next year Professor John Tregoning . It gives you time to up your training 😀😀

New preprint from the lab on the interaction of SARS-CoV2 and NK cells! We used plasma membrane proteomics (developed by WeekesLab and Lehner labs) to determine how SARS-CoV2 manipulates proteins on the plasma membrane. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our work characterising the "Burden of nosocomial COVID-19 in Wales: results from a multicentre retrospective observational study of 2508 hospitalised adults" is now out in Thorax. Free to access link: thorax.bmj.com/cgi/content/fu…

Immensely proud to present this paper, a huge amount of work. We show how IFITM3 regulates viral induced cytokine responses and subsequent viral induced pathology. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #virus #infection Ian Humphreys Dr Jessica Forbester Systems Immunity Research Institute Cardiff University School of Medicine

It was a sad day to lose such a hard-working, talented and popular member of the lab, but good luck in the exciting new move and see you in Oxford at some point!

So pleased to have this work finally out. We show that CMV persistence is mediated by CD4 T-cells coexpressing IL10 and Arginase-1 which is dependent on T-Bet. Very proud of this. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… #virus #infection Ian Humphreys Systems Immunity Research Institute CU BLS Research Cardiff University School of Medicine
