🎉 Incredibly pleased to present the first publication of my PhD wherein we have modeled the first stages of #Tcell progenitor recruitment to the human #thymus!
🔬 It's been a pleasure to create #microfluidic models with @emadmoeen and @BonfantiLab!

More immune engineering 🧬

A new system called MAJESTIC has a lot of moving parts.

An AAV delivers a transposon with a gene-of-interest. Simultaneously, an mRNA is added that encodes a transposase, leading to permanent genomic integration of the AAV cargo.

I have just listened to this (yes - I've listened to myself!) & your editing is brilliant!!!
Thank you 🙏.

@DiegoSafian @ItaiYanai @Pawel_Burkhardt I’m not 💯% sure what you mean by this? The peptide discovered by Olivera and Cruz back in the 70s was approved by the FDA as an extremely potent intraspinal pain relief medication, ziconotide (Prialt). The research received a Golden Goose award this year!

I need to raise awareness about an important point in #scRNAseq data analysis, which, in my opinion, is not acknowledged enough:

‼️In practice, most cell type assignment methods will fail on totally novel cell types. Biological/expert curation is necessary!

Here's one example👇
