Excited to share our work studying the DRG sensory innervation of the colon! We found 5 subtypes of DRG neurons that innervate the colon with distinct morphologies, physiologic responses to distension, and behavioral effects. cell.com/cell/fulltext/…

@greg_wyant @rlwolfson Hahaha I didn’t even initially make that connection between GI biology (Rachel) and oxygen biology (Greg) when Greg first forwarded me this. That amaze.

As always, @rsaxton_ doing beautiful structural work and then taking insights from the structure to stimulate likely important clinical therapies in the future. Congrats, Bobby! Excited to see what you’ll do next...

Very excited to share our work on IL-10 out today in @ScienceMagazine! We solved the cryo-EM structure of the IL-10 receptor complex and used it to design myeloid-selective IL-10 variants that uncouple its pro- and anti-inflammatory effects science.sciencemag.org/content/371/65…

Beautiful work from @hankadel et al introducing a new technique for rapidly purifying melanosomes and an example of the amazing things you can discover with it! Looking forward to seeing what else you can find in melanosomes...
Hank Adelmann@hankadel

Excited to we debut MelanoIP, a new method for rapidly purifying melanosomes! With MelanoIP, we elucidate the function of MFSD12, a recently discovered pigmentation protein. nature.com/articles/s4158…

On my first day at the Whitehead, Angelika gave me her unvarnished view of me: I needed to be baptized and stop working on rapamycin. From that day on I was in awe of her honesty and brilliance and humor. She was our greatest scientist and human. Rest in peace my dear friend.

We are very sad that @AngelikaAmon, first generation PhD student at the IMP, former IMP board member, and lifelong friend of the house, has lost her battle against cancer. Her contributions to science form a lasting legacy we are grateful for. Our thoughts are with her family.

Check out @SSebastianChoi’s beautiful work identifying two parallel ascending pathways in the anterolateral tract that are necessary for conveying tactile and noxious information from the periphery to the lateral parabrachial nucleus. It was such a pleasure to contribute to this!
Seungwon (Sebastian) Choi 최승원@SSebastianChoi

Finally out! Our work describing parallel ascending spinal pathways for affective touch and pain now out in @nature. Huge thanks to Koerber/Ross @decouvriez labs and Junichi now at @spinalcordgroup for awesome collaboration! and all other authors too! nature.com/articles/s4158…

Novel work from the @sokol_mdphd lab elucidating the role of sensory neurons triggering dendritic cell migration in the allergic response. Congrats @sokol_mdphd et al! Can’t wait to see what will follow
Caroline Sokol MDPhD@sokol_mdphd

It's been an absolutely stellar week for the Sokol Lab! Our group’s first paper is now online at @ImmunityCP. In this paper @MdPerner @theILCguy & @XuepingZhu show that sensory neurons detect allergens and activate DCs to initiate allergic immunity. (1/x) cell.com/immunity/fullt…
