Why do B cells make (more) cochlin in RA, SLE and Sjogrens? A really interesting preprint, from @beccabelmonte.bsky.social and Mohini Gray at @edinuni-irr.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Really enjoyed reading this preprint from Emma Davenport and Marina Botto’s labs. scRNAseq + AIRR of rituximab treatment in SLE - www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...

*Please repost* @sjgreenwood.bsky.social and I just launched a new personalized feed (*please pin*) that we hope will become a "must use" for #academicsky. The feed shows posts about papers filtered by *your* follower network. It's become my default Bluesky experience bsky.app/profile/pape...

I'm very pleased to have two lab positions open this week, to join our team looking at immune regulation in infection and co-infection. We're especially interested in tissue-based immunity, cytokine regulation and immune metabolism. Join us! Postdoc (3y) and research technician (12mo) posts open.

Our search for a flow cytometry core facility manager for King's Buildings, University of Edinburgh, is finally live. Join us! Conventional & spectral. Parasites, immune cells, algae, bacteria, yeast and more. Full-time, open-ended. Apply by 17 March. elxw.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...

Our new publication on BCR sequencing in ME/CFS, adding to the evidence of an increased usage of IGHV3-30. Much more immunological research is needed to understand the many lines of evidence indicating immune-mediated or autoimmune components to the disease. www.frontiersin.org/journals/imm...

It’s wonderful to be at the University of Glasgow today to examine a viva. I think the last time I was here was 18 years ago for my own.

Having a day back in the lab expressing antibodies in Expi293 cells. Very excited to use my new 3d printed flask holder- much better than the old sticky mat!

Looking forward to this- just registered.

Welcome to BlueSky @uoe-eid.bsky.social !

Inspired by @rodrahimi.bsky.social 's noble efforts linking immunologists together over here, let's try and get more specifically TCR/BCR/AIRR/repertoire chat going with this starter park go.bsky.app/Gi2dcGd Drop me a beep to get added or suggest others!
