It's been online for awhile already, but check out our new publication! We demonstrate an early and innate-like role for memory T cells in protection from mucosal virus infection: https://t.co/vuacYOTCLf

#sexdifferences #genderdifferences #genderbias #genderequity. @NIH_ORWH Conditions that affect women more than men garner less funding. But boosting investment could reap big rewards. https://t.co/eoGjMMGD0U

You know you’re a scientist about to travel when…

[Brianna Traxinger @britrax]

Thanks for the feature, @science_seattle 👩‍🔬

[Brianna Traxinger @britrax]

My graduate work at —or at least 60% of it— is now published in @MucosalImmunol. Thanks to my mentors and collaborators at @fredhutch @uwdgh @PrlicLab @JennyLund15 . If you’re excited about mucosal Tregs, stay tuned for our follow-up work as well 👀 @icruztala

[Jennifer Lund @JennyLund15]

Do you love mucosal immunology? Do you love seeing your colleagues and friends in person? Come join us for an in-person meeting put on by the Society for Mucosal Immunology in July (the best month to be in Seattle)!

Ok. I'm sick of the snow now.

[Irene Cruz Talavera @icruztala]

@_tercermundista No! Sorry to hear it

You're a billionaire — great, good for you. You want to zoom around on a rocket and pretend you're an astronaut? That's fine, it's a free country. But don't ask for government subsidies to do it and then whine when you're asked to pay your fair share of taxes.

Encouraging, but still lot's of room for improvement.

'Scientists should elevate the voices of scientists from marginalized groups, as well as increase outreach to underserved communities that might harbor historical mistrust in medical institutions.'

@WeFightMalaria Congratulations superstar! 🌟

[Ashish K. Jha @ashishkjha]

Is it possible #OmicronVariant sets us back to square one?

No

We have lots of tests that'll detect Omicron

We have therapies that'll work

Our vaccines MAY take a hit but will still provide some (may be a lot) protection

We are in a MUCH better place

This isn't March 2020
