David Julius’s family fled European anti-Semitism and moved to NYC. Ardem Patapoutian grew up in Lebanon, then immigrated to the US for its educational opportunities. So, they both conducted their Nobel-winning research here. When America welcomes immigrants, we all benefit.

“COVID toes” are swollen discolored toes (and fingers) that were seen in areas with high incidence of COVID-19, but the cause is unknown. This new study by Stacy Muun et al shows lack of association between covid toes and SARS-CoV-2 infection. 🧵(1/) pnas.org/content/119/9/…

Super cool Journal of Investigative Dermatology paper uncovering a neuro-immune axis in psoriasis - CGRP production by dorsal root ganglia activates dendritic cells to produce IL-23. This could be inhibited by lidocaine resulting in improved psoriasis. Totally fascinating! jidonline.org/article/S0022-…

Authored by Andrew G. Soerens et al, we show that #Tcells are capable of proliferating in response to iterative stimulation for over 10yrs! And produce enough progeny to occupy a volume 30,000x the Earth's volume! nature nature.com/articles/s4158…

Our lab's latest paper on peripheral tolerance mechanisms in skin is out now in nature. Congrats to Martina Damo for leading this and thanks to collaborators from Krishnaswamy Lab and Yale Dermatology. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Last week, I described our paper on climate change and wildfires: x.com/PatrickTBrown3… I am very proud of this research overall. But I want to talk about how molding research presentations for high-profile journals can reduce its usefulness & actually mislead the public.
