Increasing evidence for the central role of peroxisomes in antiviral immunity. A new study provides in vivo evidence to support a role for peroxisomes in SARS-COV-2 infection. Kudos to the authors on this important study. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

@CampbellShelagh @AydoganLab Thank you Shelagh

@DicaraLab Fascinating story, congratulations Francesca and colleagues! Have you seen this @AydoganLab ?

Alterations in ether phospholipids metabolism activate the conserved U... sciencedirect.com/science/articl… And this is the link. It is finally online and it shows the important of organelles cooperation to control lipid signaling in tissue homeostasis in the intestinal tract

"Dumbest Trade War in History" is how the @WSJ Wall Street Journal views the Trump Tariff. Cartoonist Michael @deAdder agrees-showing us an American President taking dead aim on his own left foot.

This February 28th, we encourage you to advocate for peroxisomal disorders. Rare Disease Day is an awareness day to educate policymakers and the public about rare diseases and the 30 million people impacted by them. Learn more thegfpd.org/advocate/ youtu.be/RRZap8WthC0?si…

Join us on 27 February for a special webinar to celebrate Rare Disease Day! Charlene Son Rigby, Daria Julkowska, and Heidi Rehm will discuss efforts to advance rare disease knowledge and enhance global strategies for patient engagement. Register: bit.ly/40RLJuU

@SueYTsai1 @LabWaggoner @NatureNV @BrestoffLab @Nature Once you have made the tunnel I guess they could have a big journey all together and do their metabolic businesses

@DicaraLab @LabWaggoner @NatureNV @BrestoffLab @Nature Will be so cool if they do!!

Accepted!!!!! Soon the link of this exciting story looking at lipids in control of ISC proliferation… and more. Thanks to Postdocs Drs Smitha George and Rihab Loudhaief and to research assistant Stephanie Makdissi for carrying this forward

We are recruiting one postdoc and one PhD student to join our lab on #Drosophila #innate immunity in Lausanne (Switzerland). epfl.ch/labs/lemaitrel…

@drdeannasanter Yes see you at CSI

@DicaraLab Thanks so much 🙏🏻 Hope all is well and I'll see u at CSI?

#CIHR NOR day & so excited to see we will be funded for our #IFNL #immunology #IBD 5yr grant! Very thankful to coA @DrHArmstrong @Hirota_Lab @eytan_wine & esp those in the lab who got key new data + @AaronNyeguy & others who provided critiques. Still in shock but 🥳🥳 @UM_Immu

@pmarignani Lucky you! Enjoy your family I am stuck here this year but will celebrate with new family such as James Kramer
