New Immunology Summer Course Is Here!
We are excited to offer an upper-level summer course, Molecular Immunology (ANIMLSCI 572), at the University of Massachusetts. For students in biology, microbiology, and biochemistry. Fully online and asynchronous.
Help us spread the word!!!
Since when did it become a norm that reviewers' comments are not shared with the authors of grant proposals? If you run a major foundation/agency and are not willing to share reviewers' comments, then your review process is likely dishonest. I decided that I will not be applying for grants if I cannot see a feedback. If only all of us did that, this horrible practice would cease immediately.
Looking forward to our next #globalimmuno talk this Wednesday, August 27th, at 9am PST, noon EST, 4pm GMT by Dr. Adrian Hayday.
Title: “Lymphoid stress-surveillance, normality sensing, and immunology”

A Dapl1+ subpopulation of naïve CD8 T cells is enriched for memory-lineage precursors | Science Advances https://t.co/hpxVRMVZyI
Proud of Adam Lynch & our team. We found that some naïve T cells are pre-programmed for stem-like memory fate even before antigen encounter.
Congrats to our team! Curious about intraepithelial lymphocyte complexity? Check out our story in Frontiers in Immunology! Surprising results that shed new light on their heterogeneity. https://t.co/uEIKl78gGZ #GutImmunity#Tcells#IntraepithelialLymphocytes
Scientific method: The systematic process for investigating phenomena: observe, question, hypothesize, experiment, analyze, conclude and repeat. It ensures findings are objective, repeatable, and evidence based.
Cellular architecture is a predeterminant of early TCR signaling and subsequent cell fate decisions of individual naïve T cells in response to antigen @ScienceMagazine@BenHalePhD@BerendSnijder

The first tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy for cancer could be approved by the FDA early next year, and a diverse pipeline of other TIL candidates is in development - find out more in our latest news article https://t.co/blKal3nZzY
I am very excited to share our new little story that just came out in Frontiers in Immunology: "The mosquito effect: regulatory and effector T cells acquire cytoplasmic material from tumor cells through intercellular transfer" https://t.co/AxdmFNpw2p
Next week, the University of Michigan (@UMich) is forcing its entire student body to vote on an anti-Israel BDS referendum. They’re essentially making students pick if they are pro-Israel or pro-Palestine. BDS activity on campus has led to a rise in antisemitism on campus. It only causes division on campus and isolates Jewish students. President Ono (@UMichPrezOno) and the university administration must immediately intervene and remove this antisemitic referendum from the ballot.
Waipan Chan, Ronald Germain et al. @NIAIDNews show that PD-1 engagement by T cells inhibits distinct antigen-evoked signals in a nonlinear manner, strongly influenced by the nature of available TCR ligands. https://t.co/87qnxmZmjt

Sympathetic stress is connected to tissue innervation and T cell exhaustion, such that blocking β-adrenergic signaling in CD8+ T cells rejuvenates anti-tumor functions @Tcellogic@AnnaGlobig

Regulatory T cells are phenotypically and functionally heterogenous in the TME, but what are the transcriptional networks of functionally suppressive Tregs in the TME?
Our latest work from the lab and first-author @Feng_Shan_ is out now at @SciImmunology! https://t.co/VipvrWy6Q2
Our latest paper is finally online! https://t.co/Fhl4TFOrag I am very proud for our three first authors Alex , Constance and Kaito, great job folks!

Exhausted T cells and Tumor macrophages are symbiotic. @KellyKersten8 shows TAM induce a unique synapse, priming Tex for exhaustion w/o inducing proliferation. Meanwhile Tex attract and promote TAMs. ZipSeq shows this is spatially localized in tumors. https://tinyurl/TAMTex
