My main PhD paper is finally out! 🎉 After ~5 years, it’s published today in 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘐𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘺. @natimmunol.nature.com It all started with an unexpected observation 🔍: 👉 Mice lacking the dendritic cell receptor DNGR-1 developed tumours earlier ⏩ and more frequently 📈 than wild-type mice. 1/11 🧵

🧪 the landscape of cell death is online! Spent half a year in Seattle, WA in @drewoberst.bsky.social `s lab, where we came up with a new way to conceptualize cell death commitment, similar to Waddington's famous landscape of lineage commitment! Thanks TJ and Andrew! #celldeath (free access👇)

#Medsky🧪#microsky #immunosky Finding the “dark proteins” .There are thousands of unconventional open reading frames (ORF) - stretches of code with specific three-letter-sequences - in the human genome that aren't expected to produce a protein, but seem to do so anyway.

☕This year, in our #CellDeath focus: Glover, Schreiner, Dewson & Tait reviewed the intersection of #mitochondria and cell death. #pyroptosis #ferroptosis #necroptosis #apoptosis 👉https://rdcu.be/d46gt www.nature.com/articles/s41...

sadistic smile only to mock me before I found out the PCR didn't work 😂.. #scienceisfun
