The Trump Administration is waging war on universities by suspending their funds. N.I.H. grants to universities are down by more than 90 per cent in the current fiscal year; so far in 2026, the National Cancer Institute hasn’t made a single grant. newyorkermag.visitlink.me/oxA7Ey

At Immunoschool, Eicke Latz will discuss targeting inflammasomes, the innate immune sensors linking lifestyle exposures - from Western diet to metabolic stress - to the chronic inflammation that impacts healthspan.

📢 SIGN & SHARE THE PETITION! 📢 New York needs an Empire Biomedical Research Institute to create new statewide funding opportunities for scientists & physician-scientists so that patients and their families get the life-saving and life-changing new therapeutics they're hoping for ✏️ c.org/TDMy2H9JTW

Check out our highlight of an exciting new preprint by Dr. Claudia Rivera from Dr. Yasmine Belkaid's group 👇

Interesting study from the ppl @solvingforsci.bsky.social. Very much in line with our earlier findings with @preprintclub.bsky.social (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...) : 1/ Reviewers can distinguish quality and impact (+novelty in our model) 2/ Trainees want to review 3/ Authors love the experience

Very exciting to finally see clinical data where viral mimicry provides survival benefits

Short, noncoding YRNA can activate pathological variants of the innate sensor RIG-I, causing autoinflammation and #lupus nephritis in mouse models. Learn more in #ScienceImmunology: https://scim.ag/43ewTiV

It was a great experience to present our latest work on cancer vaccines in front of an audience of TE experts

Proud of our Yu-Chan Chih for receiving the Trainee Innovation Idea Award for his work on cancer vaccination 👏🥇

Y RNAs getting some of the recognition they deserve

Check out our latest in @cp-trendscancer.bsky.social where rockstar PhD student @laurarosenberg.bsky.social reviews cancer therapies known to induce innate immune responses through the reactivation of Transposable Elements.

Latest from us: we detail the protocol we use to generate mRNA-LNPs and to study immune response in preclinical setting. link.springer.com/protocol/10....

🎉 Congrats to student extraordinaire @bhavyasighs.bsky.social who earned a scholarship from #CIHR AND got a paper accepted in the same week!

Another nice example of a host-acquired gene in poxviruses, which modulates the host immune response. dx.plos.org/10.1371/jour...

More great content from @preprintclub.bsky.social @epelmanlab.bsky.social. This @biorxiv-immuno.bsky.social preprint from Liu et al. reports that resident tissue macrophages in the conventional outflow tract regulate intraocular pressure.

Call for entries 📣 The international €350K #EinsteinFoundationAward honors researchers and institutions across all scientific disciplines working to advance #research quality. Deadline: 30 April 2025 - please share! 🌍 (1/2) ➡️ award.einsteinfoundation.de #OpenScience #reproducibility

We wanted to remind you that you can read our preprint feedback under the “Community reviews” button on @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social 😊

It’s crazy how talking with a science buddy is simultaneously what’s most likely to move the project forward and the thing that’s least prioritized in our schedule.

Beautiful and potentially very impactful.

#PreprintClub is now on Bluesky! Who are we and what are we doing? We are a group of enthusiastic scientists that gather together once a week to discuss fresh preprints in the field of #immunology. 🦠🧬

Alternative #publishing: You post a #preprint, others read-comment-evaluate, journal highlights (positively) evaluated preprint. Interesting example: coordinated evaluation by #PreprintClub and highlighting by @natrevimmunol.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...
