The old man still has it! After 3.5 years of going to some cold dark places (cryostat): adult #zebrafish find host immunopathogenesis aids rough M. abscessus infection, work from Centenary Institute and a major theme now at A*STAR Infectious Diseases (ID) Labs out in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

It's here! Stoked to share my (belated) lockdown project, a review on M. abscessus #virulence factors and strategies for #vaccine design🦠💉Wouldn't have been possible without my co-authors/Myco brains trust Claudio @TricckyLab Matt Johansen! ⬇️ frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

Fantastically written, and paints a very good picture of being an ECR in research in Aus at the moment. These are particularly important issues to think about with an approaching election!! #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

Had a fantastic time presenting my work at the #NTM_CSU mycobacteria conference in Fort Collins this week. It was great to meet so many people doing amazing work in the field- I can't wait for the next one! 🦠🔬

When you see PhD stipends falling below the minimum wage, do you really have to ask why STEM graduates are flocking the private sector instead of pursuing postgraduate degrees? The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand Academic Chatter™ theconversation.com/how-are-phd-st…

The liver possesses unique immune properties that set it apart from other organs. In this month's Editor's Choice, English et al Centenary Institute investigate the liver's distinct interconnected networks of macrophages & dendritic cells. #ICBnews #immunology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

Our new paper is out! We looked into the regulation of lymph node microanatomy in M.tb infection. B cells may play a bigger role in TB than we thought! Thanks to Nayan Bhattacharyya @claudiocounoupa @tricckylab Carl Feng and co-authors. Journal of Clinical Investigation doi.org/10.1172/JCI157…

Mucosal vaccine route for a mucosal-specific response! In this work from Erica Stewart Dr Erica Stewart James Triccas @TricckyLab and colleagues, intratracheal immunization of #SARSCov2 induced a stronger and longer lung antibody response and BALT formation: nature.com/articles/s4138…

Had a fantastic week at #ASI2022MEL presenting some of my PhD work! Great to meet so many new people and spend the week learning about all things immunology. Can't wait for next year 🦠🔬

Had a great time at #AMC2023 presenting work on how we mapped the TME of high-risk stage 3 nodes to determine if pre-treatment TME is predictive of outcome - so lucky to be working on a fantastic project with Angela Hong. Thank you to Melanoma Institute Australia for the travel funding ✈️
