Please contact me directly if interested! We have innovative tools for studying immune/microbiota interaction, potentially impactful projects and a kind and generous group of scientists

many thanks to Hannah Bumgarner Tony Cillo, PhD Ansen Burr Amrita Bhattacharjee ( Ohm-Ree-Tah) Tullia Bruno, PhD and Vignali Lab and the rest of our group #notontwitter. This is one of the friendliest (and most fruitful) collaborations I've ever been a part of!

So excited and proud to see this in print Immunity! A huge thank you to all of our collaborators and support from Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation! #microbiota cell.com/immunity/fullt…

This has been such a fun and collaborative story to be a part of—thanks to all of our collaborators on and off twitter! Hannah Bumgarner Tony Cillo, PhD Ansen Burr Tullia Bruno, PhD Vignali Lab HandLab

I was an intern at Smithsonian Panama in Ben Turner's lab. I've been feeling so much rage. My therapist told me to use it productively

As a society, we have got to ask ourselves if we are comfortable living in a country where the top 1% own more wealth than the bottom 92%. This is not just an issue of economics — this is an issue of our morality.

Several papers out this week including in Cell & nature show that T cell recognition of #omicron #SARSCoV2 spike is maintained in most individuals after infection or vaccination cell.com/cell/fulltext/… nature.com/articles/s4158… nature.com/articles/s4158…

Fellow @aeoveracre and her colleagues at University of Pittsburgh, discovered that introducing intestinal bacteria Hhep in mice can promote anti-tumor immunity in the colon, potentially leading to new therapies. Learn more: bit.ly/3fZcmpI

Some of the brilliant women of HandLab doing one last huge experiment before @aeoveracre heads to greener pastures! So fortunate to work with this crew for the last few years. Ansen Burr Amrita Bhattacharjee ( Ohm-Ree-Tah)

Every doctor owes it to the patient sat in front of them to be up to speed on the latest research. Sounds more obvious than it sometimes plays out. In #IBD, a good example of this is diet studies. Patients shouldn't face a brick wall because of their doctor's own disinterest.

@aeoveracre and I wrote a review combining my fave topics 1) memory T cells 2) microbiota 3) tissue resident immune cells Mucosal Immunology Hope you find it informative! rdcu.be/cHwPO

Check it out to learn more about microbes and their impact on tissue resident memory T cells (and how this could affect cancer prognosis!). New review by HandLab and me out in Mucosal Immunology now! nature.com/articles/s4138…

We are proud to announce our first Emerging Leader in Mucosal Immunology: Tim Hand HandLab ! Check out his review on how the #microbiota regulates tissue-resident memory cells: nature.com/articles/s4138…

Honored to be selected by my peers Thanks to Society for Mucosal Immunology for building a community that is pushing the science forward!

Drs. Hand (HandLab) and Overacre-Delgoffe (@aeoveracre) at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh hypothesize that memory responses to antigens from the #microbiota must be ‘licensed’ by inflammatory signals activated by the invasion of the host by microorganisms 🦠. go.nature.com/3BT2J64

Can’t wait to see all the amazing things you do in your lab!! Will miss you so much in the hand lab!

Couldn’t agree more, HandLab creates a nurturing environment for trainees that pushes us to be our best and show up for every lab member.

The SMI webinar series is back! Don't miss the first one on Tuesday, March 29 at 7pm CDT, presented by Timothy Hand, PhD & Hiroshi Ohno, MD, PhD. Register here: bit.ly/3u4Zyo6

Check out this amazing new faculty member at Pitt!! Such an amazing mentor, scientist, and friend, I’ve learned so much from her and any grad student would be so lucky to have her as a PI!👩🏼‍🔬

The best finale to a ~sweet~ PhD, getting to eat our way through Seattle as we chat science and see old friends!!! 🥰
