Excited to share our latest study by @felix_behrens & J. Holle et al., where we explore how #extracellularvesicles (#EVs) contribute to #cardiovasculardisease disease in children with #chronickidneydisease (#CKD).

Exactly four years after the first shutdown came into effect @MGHCSB, I'm thrilled to see our paper on cardiovascular complications in viral ARDS published @CircAHA Thanks to @MatthiasNahrend and everyone who supported this project https://t.co/4gQ3uFrpvU

Why are some alloantibodies more harmful than others?
In trying to answer this question, I found a disease role for IgG hexamers in lung injury triggered by complement deposition (pictured).

The teams at #AndreyKruglov & @mashreghi_lab @DRFZ_Berlin together with partners from the @ChariteBerlin are excited to share our groundbreaking research on a surprising link between our oral microbiota and our immune response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. https://t.co/VRzqEtZYZQ

[The Virchow Prize @virchowprize]

“Let us come together to achieve a healthier Africa and fight for a more equitable world,” @LekeRose during her acceptance speech #VirchowPrize2023

Her wonderful and heartfelt words are followed by a standing ovation #HealthForAll #SDG3

[simmons-lab @immunodynamics]

Very proud on my colleague @JanaGrune for receiving this year’s Du Bois-Reymond Award of the German Physiological Society #dpg2023 and for her groundbreaking work on #electroimmunology bridging #electrophysiology and #immunity in the heart! Very well deserved 🎉

[simmons-lab @immunodynamics]

@Simon_J_Cleary @FrederikDenorme @AJPLung Great work, Simon!

[Simon - now on Bluesky @Simon_J_Cleary]

Running studies involving dosing fluids into lungs of mice?
Interested in reducing numbers of animals needed for experiments?
If yes, check out our study out now in @AJPLung: https://t.co/NinJ55gUjE
