It’s out! Over the past few months, my colleagues and I at @unbreaking.org have been working to document the political, legal, and economic maneuvers the US administration has used to undermine medical research funding. We hope you’ll find it useful! Read it here:

The content for #SuperbOwlSunday is so good and nerdy and pure 🤓🥰 Give yourself a break, and check it out.

Since I last posted here I moved to the US and joined Ensocell, an exciting startup with amazing people! UK #immunology #immunosky folks, we are searching for a Senior Scientist, Immunology to join the Cambridge team! Tell your friends! www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/41...

So excited to share our work on Treg microniches out today! Amazing group effort from Yisu Gu and Raquel Bartolomé-Casado with Powrie and Teichmann labs! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Universal recording of immune cell interactions in vivo

Nothing makes you appreciate how much work went into a project quite like collating the source data. 📈📉📊

Just wrapped up the @bsicongress course "Omic data analysis and visualisation using R." 12/10 would recommend to a friend! The instructor, John, is GREAT! If you have wanted to get up to speed on R basics, sign up for the next round! www.immunology.org/events/omic-...

In 2020, the Thornton lab came into being, but things did not go as I’d planned! With the pandemic raging, Dana Costigan and I took to the CL3 to understand what was going on with the mucosal immune response to SARS-CoV2. Out now in Mucosal Immunology!!! www.mucosalimmunology.org/article/S193...

"We asked students several questions about the scheduling structure, frequency, and helpfulness of their individual meetings with their advisors. Frequent meetings were a positive predictor of nearly every aspect of well-being and productivity measured in the survey."

Anyone else going to Regulation of Barrier Immunity? Abstract deadline is tomorrow, and I would love to see you present your work! www.keystonesymposia.org/conferences/...

Hello, BlueSky 👋 Let’s try a thread. We need to talk about UK graduate wages, and the idea that Britain sends too many people to university. American readers should stick around for the UK/US comparisons 👀 First up: the UK graduate wage premium has fallen substantially over the last 25 years

Why are tenured women feeling pushed out of the career they worked so hard for??? I expected most of the results in this paper, but that bit sucks. So. Much.

1/ New paper! “Gender and retention patterns among U.S. faculty” w/ N Laberge KH Wapman @samzhang AC Morgan M Galesic BK Fosdick @danlarremore @aaronclauset: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... A systematic study of gendered rates & reasons for faculty attrition in US academia 🧵

Super fun summary of research interests. Make your word cloud at scholargoogler.com. PS when it says I study “Cells” I’m pretty sure it means T cells.

In addition to immunology, I enjoy nerdy baking. This an mRNA vaccine jelly in honor of the Nobel Prize awarded today.

Katalin Kariko is such an inspiration! Her tenacious dedication to the dream of using mRNA in vaccines has changed the world.
