Does anyone have any inside information on when the #NHMRC Ideas #grants are being announced in Australia? It must be soon, surely?

Job advert: We have a cool structural virology postdoc position in the @LabFontana and @BarrLeeds investigating the cellular trafficking of Influenza A virus vRNPs utilising techniques in #cryoET #CEMOVIS and #cryoFIB! See link for details/contact info jobs.leeds.ac.uk/vacancy.aspx?r…

Hi Australia-based Honours/Masters students. Interested in doing a #PhD in immunology and infection? Check out this lecture to learn about our research @TheDohertyInst @UniMelbMDHS. Pls Contact me to discuss potential projects! m.youtube.com/watch?v=Hrx-Sy…

To my chemical biology network, check out the following exciting opportunities for positions in the School of Chemistry at the Australian National University, Canberra (Senior Lecturer - Full Professor). The first is a prestigious fellowship aimed at women/non-binary scientists.

Amazing publication from @TricckyLab and @m_steain and their colleagues on unique cytotoxic CD4+ T cell-signature in critical COVID-19 in @ClinTransImmuno bit.ly/3sxA6uB @Sydney_ID @Sydney_Uni @EricTopol @CentenaryInst @UNSW @SCHNkids @rpahos_school

Good work from a German ad agency which reads "protect the wildlife before it's too late"

The Matildas have sold more jerseys ahead of the FIFA Women's World Cup™️ than the Socceroos managed during and since the men's tournament last year 🇦🇺 But wait for the best bit... Kids kits are 'far outselling' adult kits 🥺 [Source: AFR] #FIFAWWC #OptusSport

Super proud of my first year PhD student winning second prize at the @Sydney_DDI HDR Pitch session

No spoilers, but this is the cleverest football advert I've ever seen.

The return of vaccine-preventable diseases will be felt predominantly not by the spreaders of misinformation or profiteers but by the most vulnerable in our society, like the children of those who trusted the wrong people or patients on immunosuppression.

As far as I'm concerned, this will never ever stop being funny. 😂

Good lord- RFK Jr. claimed on Rogan’s podcast that there is good evidence that the flu vaccine caused the 1918 Spanish Flu epidemic. Slight problem with that claim: influenza had not even been identified until the 1930s and a flu vaccine wasn’t available to the public until 1945.

📢 Epic battle of nature vs nurture!! 🔥Come along April 27th to *FREE Public Lecture* on all things immunology 🤩environmental influence! Check out amazing line up of experts 👇👇, hosted @Sydney_Uni with support from @ASImmunology more info & rego tinyurl.com/usyddoi23

We’re hiring! We have a 3-year postdoc position on an ARC Linkage funded project in collaboration with @CSL. Please apply to join our team at @UNSWBABS in Sydney to work with us to improve the efficiency of CRISPR gene editing for therapeutic use. @UNSW external-careers.jobs.unsw.edu.au/cw/en/job/5152…

And @IAP_Sydney @ProfStephenKent @sarah_sasson

Do you like your covid-19 vaccines to give you a good dose of neutralising antibodies? You should because we've shown they correlate not only with protection from symptomatic but also severe disease! Another great collab with ⁦@DebCro⁩ nature.com/articles/s4146…

Please RT 🙏! Anyone looking for a research gig in immunology? Victor is a wonderful PI. Well funded, brilliant, great sense of humor & he's based in a beautiful part of Oregon. Superb opportunity to do cutting-edge science re: adjuvants & cGAS STING! 👇 🏔️🌄🚵🧪🧫🥼🐁🧬

Last chance for international postdoc applications to come research the comparative immunology of bats in China. Base+topup+talent scheme could be up to $88k USD plus a research budget.
