A new Science #Immunology study that evaluated five different large language models finds that they can support vaccine research, but are not very effective at generating creative hypotheses or designing novel experiments. scim.ag/3XwFmL5 #LLMs

For our #flowcytometry peeps, would you like to have a single fix/perm protocol that is optimised for everything? One that preserves fluorophores while allowing simultaneous TF and cytokine staining? How about 100-fold cheaper? You got it: …rentprotocols.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/cp…

Check out the latest review from the Vignali lab discussing Tregs in cancer! Congrats to my lab mates @CImianowski and Qiang on this wonderful work 🧬🧫 nature.com/articles/s4156…

Thrilled to share new work led by @JieYang437 in the lab published today in @Nature. We find that Aspirin prevents metastasis by releasing T cells from immune suppression by platelet TXA2. @Cambridge_Uni @CRUKCamCentre rdcu.be/eci1U

Really excited to finally share my PhD work out in @Nature today on #polyclonal interactions in #intestinal tumour formation, and pleased to have collaborated with @KenLauLab on their paper in the same issue of the journal. nature.com/articles/s4158…. A long 🧵

“It is very good news for the science sector and for the UK that the Chancellor has recognised research and innovation as a ‘crucial national asset’ for delivering long-term economic growth."

In this International Day of Women and Girls in Science day, we congratulate Dr. Sarah Crome (@sarah_crome), the recipient of the 2024 CSI New Investigator award, for her outstanding work in tissue-specific immune tolerance 🏆👏

This week: Dr. @SarahKWhiteside and a team in the @RoychoudhuriLab found that CD4+ conventional #Tcells acquire suppressive functions upon #Treg depletion, limiting the efficacy of Treg-targeted therapies 📝 @SciImmunology: bit.ly/3GVkCnO 🎧: bit.ly/3SlDqTU

We’ve been #heating our home with an air-source #heatpump since 2020. This has massively reduced our energy use/year for heating & hot water to 3,562kWh, equating to only 0.74 Tonnes CO2 emitted/year - a quarter of the National average! How we upgraded: sites.google.com/view/becoming-…

SAVE THE DATE: #TumourMicroenvironment24 This @BSI_TumourImm Group meeting will bring together scientific & clinical researchers alongside industry partners for #networking opportunities & exciting discussions 💡 Registration & full details coming soon 🌠bit.ly/3QP9E9n

If you ever wanted to *really* know what is happening to PBMC in healthy aging - now you know! Just out in @ImmunityCP , our latest work in immune aging - dissection of >300 PBMC samples aged from 25 to 85 years. Huge dataset and detailed annotations. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We are hiring TWO core-funded group leaders! Each position comes with a flexible start-up package: 👩‍🔬2 postdocs and a technician 🧑‍🎓2 PhD students 🔬budgets for our state-of-the-art core facilities. Ready to join our community of exceptional researchers? cruk.cam.ac.uk/jobs-and-stude…

It's official 🎉 ! I'll be starting my lab @deDuveInstitute @UCLouvain_be in October. We'll be looking at how somatic mutations affect gut mucosal immunity in non-neoplastic diseases 🐭🧬🧪 Grateful to all my colleagues, mentors and funders who helped along the way #newPI

@nkg2d1 Congratulations Arthur! Excellent news!

So, really good news today: “...the recommendation that Professor Arthur Mortha be granted tenure and the rank of Associate Professor...effective July 1, 2023” I owe many wonderful humans a big kiss for their support to reach this milestone.
