Very cool talk on Tips and Tricks on Spectral Flow Cytometry by Dr. Oliver Burton (@labliston.bsky.social) in the ThemeNight of the Flow Cytometry Core Facility of the @unibonn.bsky.social!

Finally somebody out there asking the important questions! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

AI-screened inhibitor for GSDMD pores! What a cool finding!! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Platelets sequester extracellular DNA, capturing tumor-derived and free fetal DNA | Science www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The #IUIS2025 is on!! The @dgfi-org.bsky.social is kicking off the Satellite Symposium in great style at the Austria Center Vienna! #Immunology #Science

Arriving in #Vienna for the #IUIS2025! It is going to be a fantastic conference and if you are around, make sure to reach out, let's talk and build the #Immunology of the future!

Just finished reading the original #Mistborn trilogy and I am amazed with the truly engaging storytelling and character development! I can really recommend the reading, as I am already looking very much forward to starting the next book from @brandonsanderson.bsky.social!

An interesting (and multi-species) short text on the immune senses of organisms! @cellpress.bsky.social www.cell.com/trends/immun...

It was a pleasure to host the @sawitzkilab.bsky.social for the First Symposium on #SwarmLearning for Precision Medicine! Our team from the @dzne.science is always glad to engage with such outstanding researchers for important collaborations! Really excited with our plans for the future!

Great example of how to make good use of #Olink and #SomaScan #proteomics in a population-level study! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very interesting pre-print from the group of Vishva Dixit in California! The @genentech.bsky.social team found the small-molecule inhibitors of caspase activity can be delivered using GSDMD pores as an entry point! #Inflammasome #Immunology www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Another fantastic shot from @roisinmcmanus.bsky.social at the mechanisms of activation and modulation of the #NLRP3 inflammasome! Congratulations to the McManus team at the @dzne.science and my dear friends at the iii @unibonn.bsky.social! Fantastic work! www.cell.com/immunity/ful...

As it turns out, Mars will not be kind to our immune system! Very interesting work from @dlr-spaceagency.bsky.social, @radboudumc.bsky.social and @unibonn.bsky.social! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

It has been a while since I worked with microbiome, but it is nice to see such as amazing effort out there! Great work on @cellpress.bsky.social by the group of @blekhman.bsky.social! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

In this very interesting publication on @cp-immunity.bsky.social, Saller and the team of Olaf Gross unveiled the complexity of #NLRP3 activators, highlighting mitochondria’s roles in switching #apoptosis to NLRP3 #inflammasome activation! www.cell.com/immunity/ful...

Fernanda Torres was a surprise win, taking home her first Golden Globe for best female actor in a drama motion picture for “I’m Still Here.” She told the red carpet ahead of the awards that she was the second Brazilian to be nominated, her mother Fernanda Montenegro being the first. cnn.it/3DIPxFO

Suppression of the inflammation that occurs with aging ("inflammaging") by blocking thrombospondin-1 (Thbs1), prevented age-related blood stem cell defects and expanded lifespan in the mouse model (KO-knockout) www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Amazing read to start the year! The team of Bali Pulendran, our #SwarmLearning partner, just published a great article, highlighting the role of #platelet factors and TPO-mediated activation as an important mechanism to enhance the durability of #vaccine responses! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Not only ASC specks and inflammatory cytokines, but gasdermin pores are found to be shared during pyroptosis! #Inflammasome #Immunology www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...

The infamous article that stated the fallacious positive effect of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin for COVID is now retracted, i.e., the results are made up and cannot be reproduced (of course). Let's hope that good science can prevail - faster - whenever needed the most.
