Congratulations to MCBI postdoc Sofia Ibáñez-Molero (and co-authors) for publishing in @nature.com her cluster method developed during her PhD at @nkinl.bsky.social in @peeperlab.bsky.social. By always excluding doublets in glow cytometry you might exclude some gems.. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

After a summer break, @mcbi-amsumc.bsky.social #SingleCellClub is back! Looking forward to Fern Bosada-Musselwhite's talk on quantifying heart extracellular matrix using (light sheet) microscopy 🔬 tomorrow!

On the 1st day of the @cancercenterams.bsky.social annual conference Lotte De Winde presented her recently published data on the development of lymphoma-on-a-chip model to study the role of fibroblasts in this pathology! You can find the publication here doi.org/10.1016/j.mt...

Today marks the 44th anniversary of the publication in the MMWR of a new syndrome that we now know as AIDS www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview... (MMWR 1981;30:250--2). Much progress since then but much remains to be done.

### PhD position alert ### Please repost! I'm excited to announce a new *PhD position* within our group. We are looking for a super-motivated candidate with a solid basis in wet- and dry-lab research. Apply now & make sure to include all docs! werkenbijprinsesmaximacentrum.nl/en/vacancy/p...

The next single cell club is happening today!!

Come join us!

We’re looking for a Junior Postdoc to join our growing team at Amsterdam UMC, working on inhalable nanovaccines to activate lung immunity especially resident memory T cells (Trm) against cancer. More info here👇 🔗 werkenbij.amsterdamumc.org/en/vacatures... @mcbi-amsumc.bsky.social

Our own Yvette van Kooyk will be presenting! See you there?

For the next session of our Single Cell club we will host Rosalia Franco Fernandez @amsterdamumc.bsky.social to discuss CD8 responses in gastric cancer metastasis!

MCBI researchers led by Lotte de Winde developed a lymphome-on-chip model that include lymph node stromal cells (fibroblastic reticular cells), thereby offering a new model to study these cells in the development and progression of lymphoma! tinyurl.com/2mads7kr

On the second day of the conference, Eleonora Nardini presented her PhD project aiming at understanding how peptide sialylation affects the adaptive response in hemophilia A. #glycotime

In the mucosal immunology session Myrthe van Delft presented her research on the novel mice model to study the role of IgA in vivo. The project was performed together with the Lambrecht group @viblifesciences.bsky.social

During the keynote, Elga de Vries presented her team’s work on the immune changes associated with the neurodegenerative diseases #MultipleSclerosis and dementia #Alzheimersdisease. Some of the presented results have been discussed there doi.org/10.7554/eLif... rdcu.be/d3b9Q

Today is the beginning of the Dutch Society for Immunology Winterschool! Our department is well represented, starting with Sofía Ibáñez-Molero who presented past and future work on investigating the direct interaction between tumor cells and immune cells!

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️ So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality? We discuss various strategies in this #Cell Commentary #WomeninSTEM www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... 🧵 1/
