.@MaizelsLab & Gause review advances in type 2 immunity in the setting of helminth worm infections, in the skin, lung, and intestinal tract. hubs.la/Q02kSDv60 In our Barrier Immunity collection: hubs.la/Q02kSvJN0 #KSBarrierReg24

New preprint is out! 📣 @MaizelsLab We have done Spatial Transcriptomics on H. polygyrus infected guts 🪱🔬🧬 and found new insights into how the host defends itself against this very cool parasite! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Want to know more about how Spatial Transcriptomics can help us understanding the early responses to Hpoly 🪱 in the gut? Come to see my poster (P121) today at #BSI23 @britsocimm @bsicongress

The snow is delaying our trip to Belfast for a bit of sightseeing and #BSI2023 ! @bsicongress @britsocimm Very excited to attend this conference again. Always delivering great science, friends (new and old) and a new city during the Christmas season! ❄️

Happy to share this preprint from @MaizelsLab decribing smartness of a murine parasite H. polygyrus. The helminth TGF-beta mimic TGM4 is a modular ligand that binds CD44, CD49d and TGF-beta receptors to preferentially target myeloid cells biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

As a new Wellcome Early Career Award Fellow at @UofGSii @UofGlasgow, I am seeking a Technician to join me in investigating malaria gametocytes in the skin. Please see the job advert at: findajob.dwp.gov.uk/details/132502…. Informal enquiries happily received at matt.gibbins@glasgow.ac.uk

New publication from my lab 👇 😃

In this review, @MaizelsLab & Gause summarize how type 2 immune responses combat helminth parasites through novel mechanisms: bit.ly/3YTb8BL From our #Cytokines Collection: bit.ly/3RScNGy #Cytokines2023

🎤 Final Call: There's still time to sign up for a talk or poster at our upcoming ECR Symposium in @dundeeuni Deadline: 30 September.
