Feeney Lab

🚂 All aboard at Collaboration Station for a potential vaccination sensation!!! 💉🦟 2️⃣ awesome papers from many awesome people using the PRISM childhood malaria cohort!

ICYMI and are looking for some 🔥hot off the presses🔥 weekend reading, check out work from @pjagannathanlab ft @perri_claire looking at the link b/w CD56- NKs and malaria clinical immunity! Find @prasannaj77’s tweetorial on our TL

Shout out to @scienceTM for publishing our study describing how clinical immunity to malaria is linked to "high-maintenance" CD56-negative NK cells! 1/n @pjagannathanlab

⁦From Uganda to Australia to San Francisco, always great to hear about the fantastic malaria immunology work by ⁦@mayi_nalubega⁩ presented at ⁦@ASTMH⁩. Just missing ⁦@DrMichelleBoyle⁩! ⁦ @FeeneyLabUCSF⁩ ⁦@drmaggiefeeney⁩ ⁦@pjagannathanlab⁩

Thank you @UCSFPediatrics for highlighting our recent work from the COVIPAL Vaccination in Pregnancy study in @NatureComms @gaw_lab @YardenGolan7 @ariannacassidy @Lin68216745 @christinelin @lswarrier @Veronic20419469 @amypmurtha nature.com/articles/s4146… pediatrics.ucsf.edu/news/during-pr…

@UCSF_Postdocs #NPAW2022 #ucsfNPAW

PS, this could be you… lnkd.in/dgj-DxuG [Not accepting figure requests at this time]

Postdoc appreciation means DONUTS! 🍩 For the Feeney Lab, a lot of things mean donuts…but especially this! @gnzacevedo and @justinelevan are the real treat though 🧡

19 DEM faculty, staff, and trainees enjoyed contributing to the recent UCSF/UCB joint immunology retreat at Asilomar.

Alas, the retreat is over! Guess it’s time for quiet reflection…😌 OR we could tell you that we’re looking for postdocs who like to go with the flow (the spectral kind, of course)! Join the fun here: lnkd.in/dgj-DxuG

In the Feeney Lab, we save the BEST for last!! Everyone is Team Mikias! 😤

Labbies in this photo are (emotionally) closer than they appear! 🦦🦦🦦

And in the name of tolerance, @MAD_Postdoc taught us that commensal bacteria calls on monocytes to keep the peace in neonatal murine skin ✌️Jergens could never !!

@RRiveraLugo showed us that L. Monocytogenes pulls a MAIT and switch, escaping MAIT cell killing by sneaking host flavins. ribDEAHT riboflavin-producers aren’t so lucky… who woulda guessed? ☠️

Twitter thread! Twitter thread! Twitter thread at lunch! Here’s some thoughts on the morning sesh to munch on 🍿

Not to brag but… @gnzacevedo and @justinelevan’s posters were POPPIN! We’re so proud 🥲 Stay tuned for Mikias’s tomorrow!

And from our pal @JRoncaioli in @russellevance’s lab: 🐭 have stacks on stacks on stacks of redundant inflammasome and caspase-dependent defenses against Shigella …And also the UCB immunology softball team is recruiting

Everyone should tweet @simon_j_cleary to see some of the most 🤯🤯 in vivo imaging of lung immune cells we’ve ever seen 🩻

What a day! Here’s a highlight reel for our ✨visual learners✨ 🦠 🫁 🔬🧫🧑‍🔬🐭🪱🩸🤧 🖥 Ok we get it, you want words. We can’t tweet it all (so much top tier content), but here are some things we learned 👇
