Thanks @patrickc for highlighting our work!

Saw a talk this week on the trippiest thing: bacterial cultures on skin induce immune responses. At Michael Fischbach's lab, they demonstrated immunizing mice against tetanus by just dabbing an engineered version of a harmless staph culture on its head. Unlike intramuscular vaccination, the antibody levels don't seem to demonstrate any waning, even after a year. This is both scientifically very interesting (can vaccines just be... creams?), and an amazing reminder of how much we still don't know. We could have discovered this decades ago, but somehow never noticed until now.

A new study from @MSKCancerCenter that explains why antifungal prophylaxis can fail and lead to life-threatening Candida infections in BMT patients. Huge congratulations to study team. #TransplantID @davidrandes @FungalDoc @GermHunterMD @PergamIC @LionakisLab @NatureMedicine

How could patients on antifungal prophylaxis still get infected by “susceptible” fungal strains? We try to crack this puzzle with a 5-year patient and mycobiome dataset from @MSKCancerCenter and 219 fungal genomes from three continents. 1/n nature.com/articles/s4159…

C-type lectin receptors are amazing! We have just discovered that MICL recognises NETs and regulates the fine balance between protection from infection and exacerbated autoimmunity. This study was only possible with an amazing team of collaborators.
