Morning everyone, very excited to say our PNAS paper was published online yesterday. 🥳 It’s been a while coming and is the work of my PhD so great to see it finally out there.

Haven’t posted for a while but thought I’d use my network on here to promote. Maya is 12 years old with neuroblastoma. She’s the daughter of a friend and is having a particularly hard time currently so any support you can show for a little boost would be amazing! Thank you ☺️

[Dr Hannah McArthur @HCW_McArthur]

Congratulations to everyone involved and the Spillane lab 🎉 @AnnaBajur @katelynspillane

Take a look! Hope you all like it 😊

We use DNA-based tension sensors on model membranes to control antigen valency and mobility. Using these tools, we see that low antigen mobility increases the probability and speed of antigen extraction while also improving affinity discrimination. Something I find very exciting!

B cells are mechanoresponsive and in this beautiful work @HCW_McArthur shows how antigen mobility regulates both the dynamics and precision of antigen capture at immune synapse by B cells 🧬🔬🐭 Check it out! 👁️

Today was a good day 😀 Congrats to @HCW_McArthur for passing her viva, and thank you to examiners Paolo and Martin!

[Dr Hannah McArthur @HCW_McArthur]

@ChrisToseland @paolo_pierobon Thanks Chris, especially helping me find the position in the first place! All the best ☺️

[Dr Hannah McArthur @HCW_McArthur]

So today has been a big day, not only did we submit our paper but I also passed my viva with minor corrections! Thank you so much to everyone for your help along the way - couldn’t have done it without you all. Thank you to Martin Lowe and @paolo_pierobon for a great discussion!

[Katelyn Spillane @katelynspillane]

I’m really happy to present our latest @biorxivpreprint: “Antigen mobility regulates the dynamics and precision of antigen capture in the B cell immune synapse” led by @HCW_McArthur with contributions from @MaroIliopoulou and @AnnaBajur. Check it out!

@AnnaBajur @paolo_pierobon Thank you, it’s been an absolute honour to work alongside you also. Couldn’t have done it without you, both professionally and personally!

@LabMinguet @katelynspillane I’m happy to see people like this work! ☺️

[Minguet_lab @LabMinguet]

Awesome and inspiring presentation from @katelynspillane on how membrane viscosity of APCs impact B cell antigen internalization! Amazing my dear! #LARSW #immunology #Bcells

Happy to share our methods chapter on quantifying force-mediated antigen extraction in the B cell immune synapse 🧬 🔬 @HCW_McArthur @katelynspillane : https://t.co/X8zRoDDhXL

[Dr Hannah McArthur @HCW_McArthur]

Congratulations @katelynspillane and @AnnaBajur!

[Dr Hannah McArthur @HCW_McArthur]

Haven’t posted for a long time as I’ve been busy looking after my baby girl but I’m excited to share our new methods chapter, where we detail how to quantify force-mediated antigen extraction in the B cell immune synapse using DNA-based tension sensors. https://t.co/wSmO535v4l
