Attending the @EACRnews Cancer Neuroscience meeting in Bilbao, Spain today? Check out my PhD student @Baleviciute_A poster in this evenings session "Targerting Microglia in Diffuse Midline Glioma - heating up the Tumour Microenvironment' @jfcryan @UCCpsychiatry @karolinskainst

Really enjoyed attending the All Island Cancer Summit in conjunction with @AlCRIproject together with my PhD student @Baleviciute_A in Croake Park today. Inspiring discussions on collaboration, innovation, and tackling cancer across borders. #AICRI #BrainTumourResearch

[Lily Keane @LilyKeane]

So excited to have @Baleviciute_A from the @karolinskainst here in Ireland to join the Keane Lab for the last part of her PhD! #cryanlab @Pharmabiotic @AnatNeuroUCC

Check out our new highlight together with @Baleviciute_A whereby monocytes, carrying somatic mutations associated with clonal hematopoiesis, progressively seed the ageing brain and promote motor deficits @preprintclub @NatRevImmunol

Unexpected findings in wildling mice challenge a popular idea that allergies emerge from overreactive and bored immune systems without sufficient exposure to microbiota, due to today’s strict hygienic practices. @SRosshart https://t.co/LWRivvpjt1

Great job by @merchipperez7 and @Baleviciute_A for their 40 SECOND poster pitches at the Karolinska cancer retreat emphasising the importance of microglia heterogeneity in brain tumour biology!

[Manish Aghi, MD PhD @ManishKAghi]

This @NatRevImmunol preprint journal club is always a pleasure to read, and has been instrumental in introducing me to exciting preprints in the immunology space. Great to see work by my lab led by @meeki_lad highlighted in this venue.

[Lily Keane @LilyKeane]

Check out our latest highlight in @NatRevImmunol with @Baleviciute_A describing a remarkable study from @ManishKAghi lab whereby they uncover the skull bone marrow as a source of antitumoural neutrophils in glioblastoma that acquire APC-like phenotypes
