We have an exciting new story out at @ScienceMagazine's Science Immunology! It is about using #AAV cytokine delivery to change the lung environment. We can boost #lung #Tregs or delivery anti-inflammatory #cytokines, preventing fatal respiratory collapse

Liston, the cofounder of Cambridge spin-out Aila Biotech, is developing a Treg therapy for multiple sclerosis, a disease caused by immune cells attacking the nervous system by mistake. The therapy aims to boost Tregs in the brain to call the attack off.

I'm officially an expert in failing! I was asked to give the opening keynote today for a @CRUKCamCentre conference, speaking on the topic "Failing in Science"

[Adrian Liston @LabListon]

@CRUKCamCentre This talk was motivated by our book "Self-Doubt", which is now available in print

This is a great book, I very much enjoyed reading it and highly recommend it

Our new book "Self-Doubt" is written by scientists for scientists. You might think you are alone when you doubt your ability or suitability for science - you aren't. We all question ourselves and carry doubt with us daily.

@baryontensor My supervisions are typically 3 students. 50 students would be entirely unacceptable, and as Director-of-Studies I wouldn't sign off on it.

If you want to learn more about cytokine delivery to modify the lung immune environment, but don't have time to read our full paper at @SciImmunology, here is a short (5 minute) explainer!

Sometimes science leads us to unexpected places. For example, work we started during the COVID lockdown, may help treating the "Curse of the Pharaohs"

Read all about it at @SciImmunology

PS, we don't support tomb-robbing of ancient Egyptian burial sites

A new Science #Immunology study highlights a gene delivery platform that can induce lung-specific immunomodulatory cytokine expression without systemic side effects in mice, restricting tissue damage after #flu infections. @LabListon @GreVVel

@kan_gw_menang @ERC_Research Yeah, because the amount of money is the same, so having more people waste time writing grants for AI slop "review" is a lose-lose situation

@TombiMakuyana @RegisJoulia @KULeuvenU @Cambridge_Uni @BabrahamInst @KU_Leuven @ERC_Research @wellcometrust If you are interested in the people behind the science, Tombi started in rural Zimbabwe and James went from foster care to homelessness. Their stories "I won't become a Statistic" and "From the Streets to the Lab", in "Self Doubt", are a real inspiration:
