Retired my pipettes for #scicomm.

[Karen Ring @DrKarenRing]

I’m a visual learner so this video by @RitterLab really helped me understand how our immune systems can fight off cancer. This is some really cool #scicomm!!

[Genentech @genentech]

This video by @Ritterlab shows an immune cell called a T cell (purple) approaching and attaching to a cancer cell (teal). The T cell tries to kill the cancer cell by secreting a toxin (red wave), but the cancer cell survives. Follow this thread to see how this battle ends. ⬇️

Excited and proud of my #gradschool bestie @FrancescaGazza5 for starting her lab at @MGHCancerCenter @harvardmed! If you’re interested in gut microbiome research this is the lab for you! https://t.co/ViNLPPhin0

[Francesca Gazzaniga @FrancescaGazza5]

My dad started his lab in 1966, 56 years later I get to open another Gazzaniga lab!

I wrote about the new coronavirus itself--where it came from, why it's behaving in the way it's behaving, how it infects and kills, and what the summer might bring. It's early days, of course, but this serves as a rough preliminary portrait of SARS-CoV-2. https://t.co/GL4wrlvN0r

Exciting @natBME study explores the human #microbiome using gut-on-chip tech. Even more exciting I know two of the scientists quoted in this piece! Congrats Francesca and Richard!! @wyssinstitute @harvardmed @CIRMnews
