Happy Day of Immmunology! Lots of exciting events taking place over the next couple of weeks in recognition of Day of Immunology 2021!

[Timothy Gottschalk @TimGottschalk]

TOMORROW Friday 30th April 2021 9am-5pm, the Immunisation Coalition @immunisationgap are offering FREE Flu Vaccinations (18+) at Melbourne Town Hall. It is still as important as ever to vaccinate against flu. Bookings essential! https://t.co/nNBob1S5pe

Amazing work Lak!

[Lakshanie W @LakshanieW]

It was a pleasure presenting my PhD research today at #ERS2019 on the pathways linking #bronchopulmonarydysplasia and #retinopathyofprematurity in preterm infants. Thank you ERS for the opportunity. #ERSCongress2019

Great work Peter!

[Lakshanie W @LakshanieW]

Can the eye tell us about the brain? Yes indeed - new research published in @NatureComms by @PetervanWijnga2 and team have identified a retinal imaging method known as 'hyperspectral imaging', for use as a non-invasive biomarker of #Alzheimerdisease! 👀💡 @EyeResearchAus

[Hibbs Lab @HibbsLab]

Congratulations @LakshanieW!

Did U know? Microbes enter into your lung while you sleep, in a process call microaspiration. So while you get a goodnight's sleep, your lung microbiome is busy thriving! Find out more in this @NatImmunol fun & detailed review by Tomasz, @BenJMarsland myself @HibbsLab @CCSMonash
