Asthma is a chronic disease characterized by acute, intermittent, recurrent episodes of airway inflammation. A decade of work developing the tools, techniques and collaborations needed to figure out how CD4+ T cells in the lungs propagate disease can be found here: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Nice!

Simply wonderful!

“If you look back at the data, 250 years ago, 40% of kids never made it to adulthood. Today, it’s 4%. The majority of that decrease is due to vaccines. Vaccines have saved more lives than any other type of medical intervention, including antibiotics... -Dr. Drew Weissman, Nobel Laureate.

Simply wonderful!

Thrilled to have our latest research @wehi-research.bsky.social published in @natimmunol.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41... This work was an outstanding partnership between talented PhD student Len Dalit (now postdoc, no 🦋) and bioinformatician @chinweetan.bsky.social Thread below...

I wish I could be there! Our amazing @annarudnitsky.bsky.social will give a talk on Friday — don’t miss it! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The #IUIS2025 was way above my expectations! It was so great to meet old and new friends and to share our work. @iuis-online.bsky.social

It was mind blowing

Great keynote lecture by Ruslan Medzhitov on how the “educated” immune system of pet shop mice allows them to resist experimental allergic sensitisation. Thought provoking, as usual. #IUIS2025.

Some pics from the #RisingStars Day 2! Don't forget to share — which sessions have you liked the most so far? #ImmunologyWithoutBorders

Meet Dr @KedmiRanit, PI at Weizmann Institute. Her research reveals how immune cells coordinate to shape T cell responses. At #IUIS2025, she’ll present “A coordinated cellular network regulates intestinal tolerance.” 🔬🌍 https://loom.ly/CwagY2g#IUIS2025#RisingStars2025 #RoadtoVienna

Scientific research is at the heart of Israel’s success and has worldwide benefits. Our work will continue despite adversity, says Alon Chen https://go.nature.com/40wXMx6

Thanks for choosing me! See you there 🌟

'However, we now report that food-specific pTreg cells are exclusively induced by the recently identified RORγt APCs4–8 and not by cDCs. Instead, our data suggest that pTreg–cDC1 interactions in steady-state limit the expansion of food-specific CD8αβ T cells.' www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Incredible! Over the past 2 months, 5 independent manuscripts — from @TheColonnaLab, Dan Littman, @gardnerlabucsf.bsky.social and @chrysothemisbrown.bsky.social , and our own (now in @nature.com, www.nature.com/articles/s41...), reports that the dietary pTreg program is initiated by RORγt⁺ APCs. /1

Misinformation is winning not because it's true, but because it’s loud, emotional, and everywhere. It’s time for science to fight back. Aaron Mertz and I dissect the issue and offer solutions 👇 📖 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #SciComm @sinaiimmuno.bsky.social @aspeninstitute.bsky.social

Loved the episode! @itaiyanai.bsky.social In one of my many chats with ChatGPT, I asked about a protein—got: “Don’t you have something better to do in the holiday?”

A must read

@labwaggoner.bsky.social thank you for the spotlight! This has been a wonderful joint effort led by @cadwelllab.bsky.social in close collaboration @grahammunology.bsky.social, @belkaidlab.bsky.social, and P’ng Loke’s groups. First authors Ying-Han and Kim Zapdana led the way.

Very impressive paper by the Heeg and Goldrath labs using spatial transcriptomics to define CD8 Trm biology in the intestine in mice and humans. Congrats to @reinacampos.bsky.social and co-authors. #ImmunoSky

Looking for CD8 Tem and Tcm gene signatures for scRNAseq analysis Any recommendations?

Excited to share our revised manuscript! We adapted new live imaging tools to track the same tissue resident macrophages for months in aging mice. We found a macrophage population that contributes to vascular health in young skin, but is lost as we age... www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Only one week left to submit an abstract!

Congrats @cicacanesso.bsky.social. It is becoming clear that tolerance is generated by antigen-specific cellular network.

#Immunology by First release now @science.org Identification of APCs in the gut that promote Treg differentiation and how tolerance to food antigens is influenced by helminth infection https://buff.ly/3DjNQ1e By Maria Canesso, @danmucida.bsky.social , @victora.bsky.social and colleagues.

Today we report that an engineered skin bacterium, swabbed gently on the head of a mouse, can unleash a potent antibody response against a pathogen. Could lead to topical vaccines that are applied in a cream. @djenetbousbaine.bsky.social led the charge... @natureportfolio.bsky.social 1/55

Adaptive immune regulation of innate immunity ✨ the paradigm has been innate immune regulation of adaptive immunity but the relationship is bidirectional. So much to discover and learn here. www.cell.com/immunity/ful...

Great review by Ranit Kedmi and Dan Littman on the biology of antigen presenting cell subsets in dictating T cell responses to commensal microbes and dietary antigens. Highly recommend #Immunosky 🧪

Wonderful to see the #immunology community growing here. The first starter pack is full (they cap at 150), so I created a second one. Let me know if you'd like to be added go.bsky.app/PY5tCas go.bsky.app/FmERUoD
