#Congratulations to all @cancergrand.bsky.social winners www.cancergrandchallenges.org/new-teams-an...

When days are filled with #failures -it’s #fantastic to get an email for a collaborative publication “#Final #decision -#accepted at nature!

It’s #always a #great #feeling when #submitting a #manuscript

We are still accepting applications for postdoc positions in our lab! Please repost!

#Excited about this

I am super excited that Avi Lukacher MSTP student has joined our lab. Welcome aboard!

#Loving these words as drive home #accepted #in #principle

When it #comes to #TCR #sequencing -the word I #detest is #oligoclonality -what does that even mean? It means something if one #sequenced #enough otherwise it means #nothing

#sky #always #seems #falling….But it #NEVER #does

Happy #Lunar #New #Year -Year of the #Horse

Thanks to #Hopecenter #pilot #grant @washuneurology.bsky.social for #funding our proposal to explore adaptive immunity in #neurodegeneration < lead by #Juliabals in our lab

Back in #2019 I was cleaning my bench at #stanford and heading over to #saintlouis time flies -I was #young

interesting article, what #BS -As #scientists we should be like #performers -what the world has come to!! Public-speaking tips from the experts: what scientists can learn from comics, musicians and actors www.nature.com/articles/d41...

After accounting for healthy vaccinee bias, #RZV #vaccination remains associated with a statistically #significant #lower #risk of #dementia www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Projection was, 70 million people tuning into last night's event...what happened?? Oh well, lol!

Any #suggestion on #companies selling #leukopaks -we are #specifically looking for #HLA typed #Leukopaks?

"There are several possible reasons for this unsettling state of affairs" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I think about this a lot -especially during #grant and #paper #review -the given #proposal #paper is not #novel because someone else proposed that idea (in the grant/paper) before and executed poorly?

#NOA is in #today from #NIH. We are very much looking for #postdocs with expertise in #TCR #molecular #biology and #protein #engineering #autoimmunity

I know all of us are busy with our lives. I am sure all of us will reflect after 5 minutes listening #streets #of #mineapolis @brucespringsteen.net youtu.be/wWKSoxG1K7w?...

I must have #missed #something #new from this paper "Overall, given the numerous immunological parallels between pet shop mice and humans observed by us .. these findings may provide at least a partial explanation for the rise of allergic disease over the last century" www.nature.com/articles/s41...

@CellPressNews For the #love of #TCRs -#Read this >#Scalable #TCR synthesis and screening enable antigen reactivity mapping... www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

#Minnesotans you are #resiliant and you are #brave @governorwalz.mn.gov

#NIH eRA says "#Award #prepared" Is this really happening????

there is relief that there may not be reduction in #NIH #funding (allocated)..with #multiyear #funding "there will be many labs closing and PIs getting out of the grant-proposal pool" The #administration #achieved their #goal of #sacking #science/scientists drugmonkey.wordpress.com/2026/01/20/c...

Seems like with new #NIH budget -they are setting #early #retirement #age

I cant explain, how #beautifully #executed this paper is -I wonder, how we may #loose I#nterrogation/experimental skills like this in the #era of #scRNAseq and other modern technologies...which reveals what - #heterogeneity and #UMAPS

Now this is a paper to read www.nature.com/articles/s41...

“The time is always right to do right," #MLK2026

The #new #vision from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) rdcu.be/eZn6i

#understanding of #EBV #infection is hindered by a #lack of #models that capture infected B cell activity in the #lymphoid #tissue. #Not #anymore -#lisawagar @ucirvinemedschool.bsky.social @washuneurology.bsky.social #autoimmunity @tcellwhisperer.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Lots of #fuss about #EBV and #Multiple #sclerosis - really beautiful data here -Roland Martin EBV infection and HLA-DR15 jointly drive multiple sclerosis by myelin ... sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

From now on all high profile paper title perhaps should shift from "#scRNAseq revealed this" to "#AI assisted analysis of #scRNA and #spatial #data revealed this.." lol

It’s worth a read -👉🏼👉🏼👉🏼What’s #Wrong with #NIH #Grants? - by Santi Ruiz - Statecraft www.statecraft.pub/p/whats-wron...

“You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. Fall in love with some activity and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about and it doesn't matter”—Richard Feynman (1918-1988).

We are looking for talented graduate students to join our group for Fall 2026 studying the role and regulation of Hsp70 PTMs! If you are interested please check out www.trumanlab.org

#Happy #New #Year to all #2026

As we head towards #2026 I am immensely thankful to our team. As I look forward to #new #funding soon, if #postdocs interested in #TCR #protein #engineering #antigen #discovery #contact #us

Another #scheme to make the #rich even more #rich and #powerful www.science.org/content/arti...

#Happy #holidays to all

A cell type and its function as well as #stigma attached to it among #immunologists #CD8+ #Regulatory #TCells - www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...

Now, we are talking about some REAL "neuroimmunology" www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

"Despite rapid growth in single-cell datasets, biological insights have not kept pace with the rising number of reported association signals" Cellular and molecular fine mapping pinpoints new immunopathology of lupus www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Can anyone recommend a reliable HLA (high resolution) typing company/service -of course for a reasonable price!

Thanks for highlighting our work @WUSTLnews @WashU @washumedicine @WashUNeurology @WashUMedADRC T cells found in tonsils differ in key ways from those in blood source.washu.edu/2025/12/t-ce...

The #saga #drama #chaos and continued #confusion created at @NIH

It’s a snow day ❄️☃️⛄️🏂🎿🌨️

Now! If you love #TCRs #protein #engineering and finding #specificity -let us know. Contact us. Currently, we are cloning out 1000 TCRs!! we would love someone to take this to another level.

Happy #thanksgiving to all....especially to this crew
