Great pleasure to share our latest work @institutpasteur, the result of an exiting and fruit(fly)ful collaboration with Angela Giangrande’s team @IGBMC! We show the impact of prenatal perturbations of my favourite macrophages, on adult hematopoiesis! https://t.co/yQUZqr198X$

@Jeff_Mold Is there good data out there on how people with this kind of diets fare with viral or bacterial infections?

After reading the paper, I looked him up online. I was amused to learn that the year highlighted by his paper, 1936 -- a year which he brilliantly introduces in the attached excerpt, was also the year he was born.
And sadly, this year, 2023, was the year of his death.

I was researching MHCII and stumbled upon this lovely paper by the late Pr. Dr. Jan Klein. #Immunology

[Kémy A. @UneBiologiste]

It's remarkable in many ways. It's well written, erudite and clearly explains key concepts. And I think he was right to put such an emphasis on the importance of knowing the (hi)story of our discipline.

Please @institutpasteur I’d really like to know 🥺

Hi @institutpasteur I see this lovely quote attributed to Louis Pasteur everywhere! Can you vouch for its authenticity ? And if so do you know the source?

On connaît tous cette image : c'est l'une des plus célèbres illustrations scientifiques de l'histoire.

Pourtant, elle contient et suggère de nombreuses erreurs, qui nuisent à la bonne compréhension de la théorie de l'évolution.

Regardons un peu tout ça.
