@JunyunLai @Nature @jack_chan15 @ChScheffler @I_mun0z @paulbeavis4 Woo!!! Congratulations Jun!!!!

[Simone Park @simpak]

Are all skin TRM cells created equal? Beyond excited to share our new paper in @ScienceMagazine, where we show diverse CD8+ TRM use distinct molecular pathways to develop and persist in skin, which we can target to fine-tune the skin-immune landscape🧵👇🏻 https://t.co/wiKVvR4Ldz

[Tom Burn @TomBurn8]

Congratulations @simpak, @susanna_c_, & @LMackayLab! An exciting story and an epic effort by three of the hardest-working, talented scientists you could hope to work with!

[Mackay Lab @LMackayLab]

🌟Excited to share our latest work on how functionally distinct skin TRM utilise different pathways to establish residency, published today in @ScienceMagazine! A true labour of love by BFF @simpak and @susanna_c_! 👩‍🔬 @TheDohertyInst @UniMelb @UniMelbMDHS https://t.co/3m3tNsKqUe

Honoured to be awarded the @AAMRI_Aus @CSL Rising Star Award 💫 So grateful for the recognition of our work to unravel tissue immunity 🔬🎉

In vitro models of CD8 T cell exhaustion make high-throughput interrogation easy, but can they be used to discover real Tex biology with therapeutic relevance?

Read to find out! In our new work from the @EJohnWherry lab, out now at @SciImmunology, we...

Our latest work is out @ImmunityCP ! Find out how we used surface proteome analyses to explore circulating and tissue-resident memory T cells diversity across tissues & many more!👇

Congrats @TFordRobertson!!! Very cool evolutionary biology of T cells!!!

[Tanner Robertson @TFordRobertson]

🚨 New paper alert out now in @PNASNews! Have you ever wondered how T cells search the host for antigen in animals that don’t have lymph nodes (ie fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles)? Then this one’s for you: https://t.co/lBliv3T2Tv

Gearing up to offer our DIYtranscriptomics course again this Spring semester (Jan), covering bulk and #singlecell RNA-seq. All video lectures will be freely available online. Updated labs too! Something specific you'd like to see? Post in the comments!

We are happy to share our latest publication from Mary Margaret Addison, PhD! Here, she highlights the ability of activated CD4+ T cells to act as antigen-presenting cells and present endogenous antigen derived from infectious HIV-1! https://t.co/4RLCL8ATYr

@Youngthepro @LMackayLab @NatImmunol @raissaf @TheDohertyInst However, ThPOK itself is not inhibitory to this program since it's expression remains high in the CD4-RUNX3-overexpressing cells

[Tom Burn @TomBurn8]

@Youngthepro @LMackayLab @NatImmunol @raissaf @TheDohertyInst Interesting question! Given ThPOK and RUNX1 can repress RUNX3 expression (at least during T cell development), we might predict that overexpression of either factor would inhibit epithelial CD8 TRM formation.

[Mackay Lab @LMackayLab]

Have you ever wondered what controls tissue residency in CD8 vs CD4 T cells? Find out today! @NatImmunol https://t.co/wR4MpECRbU 🧵👇 Amazing teamwork @raissaf @TomBurn8 @TheDohertyInst 🧑‍🔬

@BrodskyIgor @Penn @pennvet @SunnyShinLab Congratulations Igor!!!

[Tom Burn @TomBurn8]

Congrats Maxi!!! @maxevrard Elegant, mechanistic study, and well deserved accolades!

[Maximilien Evrard @maxevrard]

Excited to see our new study out in @JExpMed ! Find out how S1PR5 regulates T cell migration and their differentiation into resident-memory T cells here 👇 https://t.co/ik0eBWyujh
Thank you @LMackayLab, our amazing #teamTRM @TheDohertyInst and all co-authors!

[Tom Burn @TomBurn8]

@roybiolab Congrats Nate! Great news and very well deserved!!

[Tom Burn @TomBurn8]

Congratulations @susanna_c_ !! Beautiful story and great to see it out!!

[Mackay Lab @LMackayLab]

So excited to see this labour of love 🤍@susanna_c_ in press this morning! Read how tissue imprinting shapes Trm cell behaviour here!!👇@LMackayLab @maxevrard @simpak @raissaf @TomBurn8 @TheDohertyInst @UniMelb @UniMelbMDHS

I listened to The Smiths a bunch of times and wrote about my experience as an ECR.
