1/ Thrilled to share that my PhD thesis work is now out in its final form @nature.com! A huge thanks to the entire team (which has only grown since we first put this out), our peer reviewers, the Nature editorial team, and the incredible @arimolofskylab.bsky.social. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

NEW @preprintclub.bsky.social Journal Club by Jennifer Ahn & @jengommerman.bsky.social highlighting a @biorxiv-immuno.bsky.social paper by @arimolofskylab.bsky.social, Jeanne Paz and colleagues that reports a role for IFNg in protecting against seizures after traumatic brain injury

Agree! An honor to receive the Bowes award together with @kampmann.bsky.social - a testament to the incredible collaborations at @ucsfhealth.bsky.social that make our science possible!

The study section I sit on (Innate Immunity B) will be rescheduled to April. Just putting this out there since folks have been getting no notifications about whats going on with their grants.

3/ With a single IV injection, Ark313 achieves gene delivery in up to 25% of T cells, in both circulating and tissues, including tissue resident memory! This unlocks new possibilities for studying T cell function in their natural niche. (🙏 to Roberto Ricardo Gonzalez and @arimolofskylab.bsky.social)

Cool perspective on the role of brain extracellular matrix!

In Nov '24: ILC2s promoted formation of inhibitory synapses during a period of postnatal brain development in mice. This influenced social behaviour in the adult mice. https://buff.ly/49yODYd From @annamolofskylab.bsky.social and @arimolofskylab.bsky.social et al #Neuroimmunology @science.org

Best #Nikolaus 🎅! Our paper on how the 🫁 microenvironment can shape #innate immunity against #viruses is out @sciimmunology.bsky.social This was a herculean effort brilliantly led by @pauljbaker.bsky.social who singlehandedly established the model in the lab during the pandemic. 🧪 #Immunosky 1/9

ok- sci bsky - trying this out. our latest paper with @arimolofskylab.bsky.social shows that "allergic" immune cells (ILC2s) have a healthy function in developing brain: formation of inhibitory synapses - key tuners of brain activity www.science.org/stoken/autho...
