If you are near Boston and you would like to get updated flu and COVID vaccines with no hassle, no required ID or insurance, check out these upcoming clinics. Vaccines are available to EVERYONE (except newborns) and they have some other vaccines available, too. www.boston.gov/government/c...

To get clean air infrastructure everywhere, we need as many governments, states, cities, nonprofits, schools, businesses etc. to sign on as possible. Please read the pledge, share it, and push your local orgs to join! Link to Global Pledge for Healthy Indoor Air: aas.eventsair.com/healthy-indo...

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right. Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

Over 200 leaders — including 10 Nobel laureates & top AI experts — call for AI red lines to prevent dangerous uses. I’ve signed the Global Call for AI Red Lines for responsible use of AI: red-lines.ai

This is an active research area, but avoiding illness/fever in pregnancy is wise—and so is listening to experts who’ve dedicated their lives to helping www.acog.org/news/news-re... pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22562209/ jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

To be clear, there are no data that provide a link between short-term use of Tylenol during pregnancy and autism. In fact, one of the best prospective studies w/ sibling controls, if anything, pointed to a protective effect for use less than 7 days acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

"Pay no attention: Global health agencies dismiss false Trump claim on everyday painkillers" This cannot be shared enough times.

How many chromosomes can an animal have? In our paper out now in @currentbiology.bsky.social we show that the Atlas blue butterfly has 229 chromosome pairs- the highest in diploid Metazoa! These arose by rapid autosome fragmentation while sex chromosomes stayed intact. www.cell.com/current-biol...

“The loss to state economies would be about 40% greater than the federal savings, as losses ripple through state and local economies. In other words, for every $1 the federal government saves, state and local economies would lose $1.40.” mediarelations.gwu.edu/new-research...

This is awesome. @ellecordova.bsky.social

The Empire State can’t afford to fall behind. A group of scientists is launching NY-CURES to fight for state and city level investment in research.✊ 📢 Sign up & show Albany we stand UNITED for science. 👉 www.nycures.org @miriammerad.bsky.social @bogunoviclab.bsky.social #AdvocateForScience #NYCURES

Science has saved countless lives - and will save many more if we let it. To fight cuts to research funding in the U.S. we need to share our stories! #ScienceSavedMe (tinyurl.com/m65339fh)

Science has already saved countless lives and will save many more if we let it. Hearing firsthand from patients whose lives have been saved by medical research (tinyurl.com/m65339fh) shows how vital this funding is, even for those lucky enough not to have needed it yet. Please share #ScienceSavedMe

We need new models for funding science in the U.S. Let’s goooo! 🚀

Getting ready for #CSNeuroimmune25 tomorrow in NYC! Excited to see everyone, and looking forward to some cool #neuroimmunology! @cp-neuron.bsky.social @cp-immunity.bsky.social www.cell-symposia.com/neuroimmunol...

The lack of mainstream coverage of regular huge protests reminds me of a talk from a Twitter employees who explained that they had to drop BLM off the Trending Tags section because otherwise it would have been there permanently. The modern media environment has no appetite for sustained movements.

For no real reason, thinking about this piece about the "headline news about famous guy saying transphobic thing" industrial complex I wrote for Paste two years ago. Just before everything got worse. www.pastemagazine.com/music/transp...

If you've been looking for a big, juicy, up-to-date review on interferons, incorporating the latest understanding about how IFN-lambda fits into the picture... well, here it is!👇 (Thanks to @lozanzi.bsky.social and @danielboehmer.bsky.social for writing it!)

Now online! Extensive cross-species transmission of pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes in mammals neglected by public health surveillance

Happy to share our work on the structure and function of the unusual E3 ligase ZNFX1 @cp-cell.bsky.social. It uses a nucleic acid-activated transthiolation mechanism, ubiquitinating and clustering RNA to protect cells in an immune response. @clausenlab.bsky.social www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

This is so thought-provoking… ourworldindata.org/data-insight...

Nice study showing how DNA mutagenesis can be driven by transcription factor (TF) competition with mismatch repair machinery: www.cell.com/cell/fulltex... Worth considering alongside the uneven mutagenesis of TF cistromes tied to their cancer-type-specific essentiality: www.cell.com/cancer-cell/...

I am very excited to share the second paper of my PhD published in @cp-cell.bsky.social. Many thanks to all co-authors, especially from Thomas Carell's group, and my supervisor @v-hornung.bsky.social for their great support and collaboration! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Thrilled to re-share our tweetorial on Bluesky: now out in @cp-cell.bsky.social (🔗 tinyurl.com/3a55tsky) - we present a framework to accelerate variant classification, diagnosis & treatment of inborn errors of immunity. A dream MD/PhD project, which has already led to the treatment of a patient.

The new issue is out 👉https://www.cell.com/cell/current On the cover, three articles from the Mesoscopic Brain Mapping Consortium published with Neuron and Developmental Cell shed light on the cell type diversity and their connectivity in mouse and primate brains.

I am BEYOND excited to share that my PhD thesis research is officially published in Cell @cellcellpress.bsky.social. Read on for an exciting story about how #exercise promotes antitumor #immunity by modulating behavior of the #microbiome to help fight #cancer 🏃‍♀️🦠

Very excited to share our new work out today @cellpress.bsky.social. Here, we propose that meningeal mast cells regulate brain inflammation after stroke by coordinating immune infiltration from the skull bone marrow, through the meninges, and into the brain! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

We’re excited to share our recent study published in @cellpress.bsky.social! In this work, we show that brain endothelial cells, connected by gap junctions, form a signaling highway to enable fast, long-range arterial vasodilation in neurovascular coupling. You can find it below:

Excited to share that our study on the role of the liver in #CancerCachexia is out in Cell! 😀 🧬 We found that the liver plays an active role in driving weight loss in cancer through disruption of the circadian regulator REV-ERBα and secretion of catabolic hepatokines www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

Can’t wait for this one!

1 in 5-10 people who get COVID end up with Long COVID. Only 1 in 20 of them get any kind of help. This isn’t just a health care failure, it’s a human rights failure. And it’s happening in slow motion, every day, while the world moves on. That’s it. That’s the whole post.

“Should AI be allowed to review papers or grant proposals” always reveals a thing I think people don’t understand about algorithmic bias 🧵

A baby's life was saved thanks to a custom gene-editing treatment that was made just for him and designed to fix his precise mutation. The therapy was built on decades of federally funded research, and could one day treat millions. But advances like this are at risk due to science funding cuts.

Nobel Prize winning science.

There will be symposia spanning conservation, ecology, genomics, anthropogenic impacts, immunology & capacity building. Myself, Tamika Lunn & Jenn Barr will be chairing a symposium on "Infectious Diseases in Bats – A One Health perspective", still welcoming submissions. www.ibrc.org/symposia.html
