We have lost a giant in the history of our nation with the passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

It is heartbreaking that in her final moments she was, as are many others, preoccupied with what would happen after her passing.

I want to make one thing clear: we can, and must, fight.

Our newest COVID-19 T cell paper with @SetteLab is out in Science today. Direct demonstration of crossreactive T cell memory with common cold coronaviruses. And 142 new SARS2 human class II T cell epitopes! @ljiresearch @ScienceMagazine

1/ Recently, major media outlets in the US and France have mischaracterized our COVID-19 T cell findings. We have now published a summary of current knowledge to correct this. https://t.co/QhAzaIlRSt

This is the worst thing that’s happened to US science and innovation. Banning #Immigrant scientists will lead to a devastating loss in creativity and productivity. Pretty much every lab in the US will suffer. https://t.co/xzZypmAgVn

Men are at higher risk of developing severe #COVID19 disease. We investigated whether this difference might be due to the immune response.

Fantastic team work by @taka_takehiro et al found that women develop more robust T cell response than men. (1/n)

STEM professions are not immune to the racism that is pervasive in our society. To ignore this is to enable such racism to continue. Take tomorrow. Educate. Act. Heal. #ShutDownSTEM #ShutDownAcademia #Strike4BlackLives
