Discover your immune system with our expert researchers at WEHI, Parkville on April 29th 10 am! Hear about visualising immunity, engineered immune cells, T cells and breast immunology. dayofimmunology.org.au #WEHIresearch WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) Caleb Dawson #DayOfImmunology


Come join us at WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) for the Day of Immunology! (Can confirm there will be spinning lymph nodes featured 🪩)



Guys! I've opened my independent research lab 🎊 Incredibly excited to stress out a bunch of cells and see what cytokines they make 🔬👩🏻🔬🧫 And delighted that I'll be working with so many of my #Inflammation research hero's Hudson Institute of Medical Research


Also! I'm recruiting for a... Post doc: aurecruitment.actionhrm.com/myrecruit/newA… And an RA: aurecruitment.actionhrm.com/myrecruit/newA… If you're interested in discovering weird and wonderful triggers of inflammation in #neurodevelopmentaldisorder, #neurodegeneration and #inflammatorydisease please apply

Thrilled that my lab ONJ Cancer Research Institute and La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science are recognised as finalists for the Australian Museum Eureka Prizes

Congratulations to WEHI PhD student Benjamin Broomfield (Benjamin Broomfield) for winning a @cytokinesociety - Pfizer Inc. Junior Investigator Award for Most Promising Research Presentation 👏👏 🧵 1/2


A huge honour to be awarded the ICIS-Pfizer Junior Investigator Award for Most Promising Research Presentation. Can’t wait to share my science at the ICIS Cytokines 2024 conference in Seoul in October! ICIS 🦋 @cytokinesociety.bsky.social WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) Joanna Groom

Fabulous to see this stellar research (and researcher!) recognized internationally by the ICIS 🦋 @cytokinesociety.bsky.social 👏🏼👏🏼



Big congrats to our researchers on receiving a combined $600k in research funding from mRNA Victoria! Bravo Sandra Nicholson, Joanna Groom (Joanna Groom), Hannah Vanyai and Marnie Blewitt. Learn more: premier.vic.gov.au/investing-life…



New paper alert Our most recent manuscript investigating T cells in TIL-hi dMMR and pMMR colon cancer is out now iScience journal cell.com/iscience/fullt…

1/ 🚨 Hot off the press! 🚨Our new paper, led by Andreas Obers & Maximilien Evrard, is now live in Immunity! 🧬 Curious how CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) adopt their fate in different organs? Let’s dive in! 🧵👇 authors.elsevier.com/c/1jw~j_OR~yiO…

Last session on adaptive immunity and therapeutics VIIN Starting with Brigette Duckworth WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) tracking the #memory #TCELL 🔬 Fantastic work with beautiful images of #TCELL as always from Joanna Groom ❤️


Brigette Duckworth from WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) kicked off the last oral presentation session of the day 🙌 Sharing a great story investigating where memory CD8+ T cells and their friends "hang out" in the lymph node using a mouse model VIIN #YoungVIIN #VIINYIS


.Benjamin Broomfield, Groom et al. show that early type I interferon blockade alters CXCR3 chemokine regulation and cell location to promote an antigen-dependent CD8+ T cell transition of precursor of exhausted T cells to stem cell–like memory CD8+ T cells hubs.la/Q03b6ykm0
