Excited to share that we received the Technology Impact Award from @CancerResearch to develop methods to study immune - cancer cell interactions for identifying proteins and antigens that modulate cancer cell killing, and targets for immunotherapy! https://t.co/0nd8dSRhcb

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

I'm #hiring a PhD student! Join the Lindeboom Lab at the @NKI_nl on an exciting project to explore oncogenic transcription factor binding kinetics and biophysics using state-of-the-art technologies! Apply now or share this exciting opportunity! https://t.co/ojFEKTkxgt

@Ella_Maru @Nature Many thanks Ella! Great question! We couldn't find such correlations, but this analysis is hard to do because HLA-DQA2 expression was present in the participants that did not develop sustained infections, and therefore had no detectable viral load or broad immune responses.

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

Extremely excited to see our paper out in @Nature!

How does the body respond to SARS-CoV-2, and what happens if you don't get infected after exposure?

We unravel the exact timeline of the cellular responses to inoculation with SARS-CoV-2 in humans. (1/4) https://t.co/JLfNrIFY1a

@EricTopol @Nature @BenIsraelow @VirusesImmunity Thank you for highlighting our work! We're extremely excited to contribute to the understanding of immune responses in COVID-19.

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

This was an amazing team effort by the @Teichlab and @drmarkonikolic lab. Massive thanks to my partners in crime @WorlockKaylee and Lisa Dratva, the @ChrisChiuLab that established the model, the involved teams at @sangerinstitute, @ucl, @NKI_nl, @imperialcollege, @hVIVO_UK. (4/4)

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

Highlights include the unexpected timing of the interferon response, new innate responses in unexpected cells and in abortive infections, identification and application of new activated T cell populations, and lower HLA-DQA2 expression as predictor for sustained infections. (3/4)

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

I'm #hiring a #postdoc to join my research group at the NKI in Amsterdam. Are you interested in developing state-of-the-art genomics and proteomics technologies to study TCR : antigen interactions in cancer? Apply before the 8th of May: https://t.co/BV56FeiiXu

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

Honored to be among the recipients of the NWO Open Competition M1 grant! We will develop tools to improve our understanding of TCR-antigen interactions, using high-throughput screening & AI. Stay tuned for a postdoc vacancy to join this exciting project!

Nature research paper: Decoding chromatin states by proteomic profiling of nucleosome readers https://t.co/vBzZ2ibIJm

[Rik Lindeboom @RLindeboom]

Stoked to see this tour-the-force from the Bartke team out in Nature! We've decoded how DNA & histone modifications regulate protein binding to the genome using quantitative interaction proteomics. A leap forward in understanding chromatin dynamics! Congrats to everyone involved!

[Nhuong NGUYEN @nhuongngv]

“If you want to know someone, look at their friends…” that’s how we decode histone codes and chromatin states.

Finally, the dream has come true… Almost a decade after I started the project in London, it has been published on Nature.
Enjoy the paper: https://t.co/SiWYVflmXw

@slavov_n Zbtb7a used to be Pokemon, which stands for 'POK erythroid myeloid ontogenic'. But it was later changed into Zbtb7a as the the Pokemon Company threatened the discoverers with legal action.
