I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries. These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!

The pre-vaccine era was HELL for kids. We have already failed them on gun safety, we cannot fail them on the issue of vaccines. #VACCINES cause Adults!

Aaron Fountain, Mélanie Mansat, Roberto Botelho @botelholabcanada.bsky.social and colleagues discover that depletion of endomembrane reservoirs drives phagocytic appetite exhaustion in macrophages. Highlight: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/... Article: journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

While not new, I'm excited to share the official publication of Fountain, Mansat et al. on phagocytic appetite exhaustion, which was selected as a highlighted paper and used as the cover page. Woohoo. journals.biologists.com/jcs/issue/13...

Happy to share our next preprint revealing that the lipid kinase PIKfyve does not simply impact the endolysosomal pathway, but helps modulate the ER properties by modulating ER hitchhiking and contact sites via protrudin. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Okay, let's start using this platform. For those into phagocytosis, here's the latest revised preprint on phagocytic exhaustion mechanisms - hopefully, followed by the official peer-review publication in the next few days. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Moving into this space and leaving twitter... poor blue birdie, it was corrupted into an ugly demon zombie monster by a bad human.
