It's like Kevin McCarthy is trying to get an R01 funded.

A ground breaking work on Treg differentiation and tolerance to gut microbes during early life...

[Chrysothemis Brown @themis_brown]

Very happy to share our study describing a new lineage of RORgt+ antigen presenting cells – Thetis cells – that instruct Treg differentiation and tolerance to gut microbes during early life! https://t.co/7qQPJJJbjC Brilliant teamwork led by @BlossomAkagbosu and @ZTayyebi 🧵 1/

6 month countdown to GRS/GRC in Fungal Immunology in Galveston, TX. @jmvyasmdphd @Mark_Gresnigt @Jacobsen_MI Salome Leibundgut-Landmann and I are working on an awesome program. Can't wait to see everyone in person again! Ads already in the works...thanks to @kmills to picture!

Congratulations! Lucky U Chicago.

[Nature Immunology @NatImmunol]

How fibrosis and inflammation are integrated is not entirely clear. Susztak and colleagues show that profibrotic proximal tubular cells in the kidneys recruit basophils and activate them to produce interleukin-6 and drive TH17 cell responses https://t.co/Vq4BMiVQRU

Congratulations Lionakis Lab on a great paper on how broad-spectrum antibiotics promote susceptibility to invasive fungal infection.

[Cell Host & Microbe @cellhostmicrobe]

Antibiotics & susceptibility to fungal infection. @theRAD__lab @jigarvdesai @LionakisLab show longterm #antibiotics cause intestine-specific susceptibility to #fungal infection bc of impaired gut lymphoid IL-17A-GM-CSF responses & commensal bacteria escape https://t.co/jDbb7GGVVF

Still looking for a few good post docs to join our group working on #TB #vaccines and immunology. Email me [email protected] and please retweet. We are a fun group in #Pittsburgh @PittTweet !

[Biswas Lab @BiswasLabPitt]

We are recruiting a postdoctoral fellow to join our team to work on innate immune response against systemic fungal infection. Contact me at [email protected] if you are interested.
