I am proud and pleased to share a wonderful video of my life and science partner Kristen E Pauken and #arlenesharpe talking w/ Journal of Experimental Medicine about #womeninstem for #worldimmunologyday. Wonderful interview! Check it out here youtube.com/watch?v=7RH3CI… MD Anderson Cancer Center Harvard Medical School GSBS Immunology Program

More coverage of nice work presented at #CROI2024 by Demi Sandel in our lab, where we and our larger team including Michael Peluso, MD are identifying mechanisms of post-intervention control of HIV after combination immunotherapy.

We are delighted to share our manuscript on our UCSF PROPEL program! We have accomplished so much over the last few years, and are evermore excited for new innovations and expansions of this model for equitable access to post-baccalaureate research! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Amazing keynote by Ryan Linn Brown, PhD 🌻 is not here at the UC San Francisco UCSF Bakar ImmunoX Initiative 3rd annual Mental Health Summit UCSF AME CENTER

The Schenkel Lab is looking to expand! We are looking for a Senior Research Assistant to keep the lab running! Responsibilities include running our ever growing mouse colony, helping with lab organization and ordering, and IBC/IACUC protocol development. jobs.mdanderson.org/search/jobdeta…

New UC San Francisco #LIINC paper: immune activation & viral persistence in tissue up to 2 years post-COVID. Found double-stranded RNA in #LongCOVID, suggesting active reservoir persists and evades immune clearance. Thanks PolyBio, NIH for support. Science Translational Medicine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

I’m delighted to share our lab’s latest study now published Nature Genetics👉 tinyurl.com/2p97xpj8. Led by the fantastic duo Carina Shiau #JingyiCao, and a big collaborative effort with Martin Hemberg David Ting @nanostringtech and others. 🧵

After 5 years, I'm officially Dr. Guldberg! The path to my PhD has been full of hard work, but also incredible opportunities and colleagues in SpitzerLab . I'm so thankful for the support of my family, friends, and lab mates. Excited for the next step!

Our mechanistic review of #LongCovid - published in Cell - hopefully will be helpful coming out of the very inspiring RECOVER-Treating Long COVID meeting this week. Excited for the progress we will make together in the next year! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Cost of having DNA methylation: DNA replication by DNA polymerase epsilon is a source of C to T mutations in CpGs, especially methylated ones. This expands our understanding of one of the most widespread endogenous mutational mechanisms. nature.com/articles/s4158…

Excited about bio research, but don't have 1-2+ years of research experience needed for many top PhD programs? UCSF PROPEL, we think everyone with the drive to pursue science should have an opportunity for paid research. Info session 11/22, app due 12/4: justice.ucsf.edu

What an achievement vaccines are. What a monument to our love for each other it is to stare straight into the face of something as horrific and unstoppable as smallpox or measles or polio or cervical cancer and say “You know what, it doesn’t have to be like this.” HUMANS!

"Post-intervention control in HIV immunotherapy trials" by Demi Sandel , Rachel Rutishauser (moving to bsky: rrutishauser) and Michael Peluso, MD, introduces the case of people who achieve ART free control after receiving additional therapeutic interventions. journals.lww.com/co-hivandaids/…

Congratulations to the nearly 50 UC San Francisco researchers named Clarivate's most influential scientists for 2024! 🎉 ucsfh.org/3ZJvi20

One of the most reliable ways to improve our mental health is to help others. After being randomly assigned to do just 3 acts of kindness a week, people felt significantly less depressed, anxious, and lonely. Lifting others up elevates us too. Giving shows us that we matter.
