Thrilled and honored to be receiving the 2026 AAI ASPIRE Award from the American Association of Immunologists! Congratulations to my fellow awardees, and heartfelt thanks to @ImmunologyAAI, mentors at LSUH-Sc, @LSUHS_Micro @JohnsHopkins @ccmb_csir and my trainees. Wohoo! 🥳🥳

Tuberculosis (TB) isn’t just something that happens ‘somewhere else’. It could affect you or someone you know. The good news? TB is curable. Learn the signs to watch out for.

I feel grateful every day having the opportunity to do what I love to do @@LSUHS @LSUHS_Micro in a supportive environment 🥰 lsuhs.edu/about/newsroom…

Spring is here 🥰 @LSUHS @LSUHS_Micro

Still reminiscing over two days filled with insightful talks and wonderful discussions at the inaugural LSU-system COBRE Colloquium at @LSUHS @LSUHS_Micro a couple weeks ago And a brilliant group photo!! 🥰

As a new PI, Hiring is definitely one of the most difficult task. Building a great team takes tons of patience, courage to say No, perseverance and following your instincts. Can’t be more grateful to have @Yingli_Shi @mf_fakhruddin at @LSUHS_Micro @LSUHS

It was a pleasure attending and presenting at the inaugural LSU system multi-CoBRE; Two days of insightful talks with my colleagues, mentors and collaborators 🥰!! linkedin.com/posts/tammy-du…

@monica_gestal @Yingli_Shi @LSUHS @LSUHS_Micro Thanks Monica 😁

@sadiyarsh @Yingli_Shi @LSUHS @LSUHS_Micro Congrats

Our phenomenal postdoc @Yingli_Shi won the best poster award at CoBRE colloquium. Really proud PI here 🥰!! @LSUHS @LSUHS_Micro #newPI #TBresearch #conference #Award

Hey folks, if you’re a PI, what was the hardest part of your first year running a lab? Asking for all of us figuring it out as we go. 👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬 I will go first: Paperwork!! #NewPI #AcademicTwitter #TBresearch

New research in mice suggests that aged #Bcells can promote age-associated T cell defects and contribute to “#immunosenescence” in mice. @Winer_Imm_Lab Learn more in Science #Immunology: scim.ag/4rl46mf

New U.S. #TB data show an increase in reported cases during 2024. Seek medical care if you have symptoms of TB disease, such as a bad cough that lasts 3 weeks or longer, chest pain, weight loss, or night sweats. bit.ly/3KGgtKl

New study in Clinical Infectious Diseases: the AccuLAM study evaluates TB-LAM for diagnosing TB in children without HIV, addressing a major gap in pediatric TB diagnosis and showing added value beyond current tools. academic.oup.com/cid/advance-ar… #TB #GlobalHealth

We still don’t understand how T cells control tuberculosis. Our new paper shows that Mtb-specific T cells in NHP and human lung granulomas make many interesting effector molecules upon TCR stimulation. There’s a whole lot more to T cells in TB than IFNγ! cell.com/iscience/fullt…

As the saying goes, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure: the flow-cytometry doublets that are routinely excluded from analysis are in fact a rich source of tumor-reactive T cells. #immunology #science #tumor #immunotherapy nature.com/articles/s4158…
