I'm very happy to share our work, which shows the importance of aryl hydrocarbon receptor signalling in lung endothelial cells to promote tissue tolerance and protection against respiratory virus infection.

Our new Nature study, lead by @yuexing identifies a brief early-life window when skin dendritic cells sense common allergens and trigger inflammation right in the skin without migrating to lymph nodes. We define this in-situ activation state as peripheral immune inducer (pii)DC, and show it emerges because of a still-maturing HPA axis and low systemic glucocorticoids. #Naiklab
👉Key takeaways:
1. Early-life immunity plays by different rules. During this window, innate responses to allergens in skin are heighted.
2. Hormones shape immunity in real time. Developmental neuroendocrine states profoundly tune how the immune system reacts, and can set the stage for inflammatory disease.

Please see our preprint on @researchsquare: An interorgan neuroimmune circuit promotes visceral hypersensitivity by @ZhennWang! We use mechanistic approaches to test 75 year old hypotheses about peripheral circuits! https://t.co/pMB1W9Z0u6
For 14 years we’ve repeatedly heard politicians talk about the "tough choice" of austerity.
Why is it always the working class hit by these "tough choices", and not UK billionaires who have seen their wealth increase threefold in the past decade to £684,000,000,000?
Hearing Noam Chomsky's health has deteriorated to the point it now prevents him from writing, commenting or participating in the public domain. As an educator he has been without equal. An intellectual giant in an age of confusion, misinformation & soundbites. Thank you, Noam. ❤️
Absolutely delighted! A huge thank you to @NYASciences and Leon Levy for supporting our work studying peripheral neuroimmune interactions. Also big shout out to my mentor @DrShrutiNaik for truly wonderful support.
Congratulations to the 2024 #LeonLevyScholars!🎉 Announcing the 2024 #LeonLevyScholars, in partnership with the Leon Levy Foundation. Recipients participate in a multi-year postdoctoral program to advance their careers. Read more about the Scholars: https://t.co/CMm923UEf1 👏
Check out the latest from our group aimed at understand how immune cells adapt coordinate metabolism with epithelia to survive in harsh inflammatory environments.@ipsitassubudhi @KoniecznPiotr @ImmunityCP https://t.co/0PKlxAN0wr
#Hiring.
Postdoctoral fellow position at Enamorado’s lab.
Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
Our scientific interest:
Within the Enamorado Lab, a focal point of investigation lies on understanding the neuroimmune regulation of injury and repair at the barrier tissues. Dr. Enamorado's research aims to unravel the 1) Peripheral Neuroimmune Regulation of Injury and Repair at Barrier Tissues. 2) Brain Sensing of Tissue Injury and Repair. 3) Impact of Tissue Injury and Repair on Mental Health and vice versa. By advancing our understanding of the neuroimmune mechanisms at play, we will contribute to the development of personalized, targeted therapies that can make a meaningful difference in patients live.
What we look for:
PhD in biological sciences (Immunology, Neuroscience, or related fields)
Candidates will be evaluated based on their merits. High energy, enthusiasm, and the ability to bridge new concepts and fields are desired.
