Immunologist @Sydney_Uni interested in host defence against infection




Scientists at the Crick, @theNCI and @aalborg_uni found that vitamin D encourages the growth of a type of gut bacteria in mice that improves cancer immunity. The @CR_UK -funded work includes Crick researchers @ReiseSousaLab and (formerly) @giampazolias crick.ac.uk/news-and-repor…

NIAID scientists identify interferon-gamma as potential #SARSCoV2 antiviral: go.nih.gov/1EUYFuP

SAHMRI researchers are seeking healthy individuals to help understand how to make vaccines more effective for more people. We're looking to determine whether gut bacteria influence immune responses after vaccination. 🦠 Find out more ➡ sahmri.org.au/avirs





Our preprint is out, using #IMC on #HCC tumours. We identified a unique neighbourhood within tumours consisting of VEGF+ perivascular macrophages and immune cells that could play a key role in angiogenesis and vascular permeability @angeferg @palendira C Santhakumar G McCaughan




📢 Excited to share our latest pre-print from the Sher lab on @biorxiv_immuno ⬇️ We show IFNγ (due to concurrent bacterial infection or recombinant cytokine treatment) conditions the non-hematopoietic compartment in the🫁 to *protect* against #COVID19 in mice 🐭

Delighted to share our recent @NatImmunol study led by @YuanyuanGao6, @ywangCB, and @dchauss, showing that transcription factor EGR2 controls tissue- and disease-specific functions in pathogenic Th17 cells in the CNS. Many thanks to our collaborators!!! rdcu.be/dgL4p
