Excited to share our study by @keylas3 et al. on pathological autoantibodies in people with Long COVID. We asked whether IgG in patients with Long COVID bind to human tissues/antigens and cause pathologies when transferred into mice. With @PutrinoLab

We often think moms are immunologically vulnerable to tolerate the baby. But I always wondered: why would evolution make such a critical period of life so dangerous?

#EveryCellIsAnImmuneCell! 💥#NewPaperAlert💥 Excited to share our latest review with @agharrison6 about molecular, cellular & #spatial control of the immune response regulated by #stromal, #innate, & #adaptive immune cells in the lymph node! Free link👉 https://t.co/H76GgXLXHs

[Science in Boston @ScienceinBoston]

A new study from the lab of Dr. @Anders_S_Hansen at @MIT suggests that #chromatin moves in distinct ways that help regulate gene expression and DNA repair, revealing how genes interact within the crowded nucleus over timescales from microseconds to hours. 🧬⏳

Almost 20 years ago when I first came to Cambridge/Boston, ppl told me I was living in a bubble. I didn’t get it… I learnt what it meant, especially over the last few years… The bubble has bursted

Shocking new video shows a gunman opening fire indiscriminately on Memorial Drive in Cambridge. Police say there is no current threat to the public but the incident has shut down the usually busy road for hours on Monday afternoon.

@Lo_Zanzi @JCellBiol Super interesting paper!

[Prof. Akiko Iwasaki @VirusesImmunity]

I wrote this piece to promote thoughtful, respectful, and rational engagement with controversial science topics. I hope it fosters constructive dialogue in the scientific community—thank you for reading and sharing 🙏🏼 @NatRevImmunol

We developed Single-Molecule Localization and Diffusivity Microscopy (SMLDM), decoding of single-molecule localization and diffusion from a single frame without tracking. It's just online in Nature Methods.

Can google map fix their direction through blocked roads during Boston marathon?!🤬it’s already bad enough to go through rerouted traffic and Red Sox game traffic, all funneling through a road under construction… worst of it, ambulance were stuck for 10+ mins at least🤯🤯🤯

Scientific publishing needs to change. In a new preprint, HHMI President Erin O'Shea and Bodo Stern argue that the incentives are misaligned. Researchers should be evaluated on what they choose to share, not what journals select. I’m proud that @hhmi_science is leading the way. Read the preprint here: https://t.co/CV1iiwgIvY
