How does our immune system react to #COVID19 variants?🦠 A new PLOS Medicine study from Fabienne Brilot and team Sydney Health Kids Research shows importance of #Vaccine design keeping pace with emerging variants. Partners: Kirby Institute, UNSW lifebloodau @SVHSydney @NSWHPathology

“While the approved vaccines are showing good responses, our study highlights the importance of continued vaccine development, especially taking into account the differences in variants.” A/Prof Fabienne Brilot

UK-based AI company DeepMind has mapped the structure of 98.5 per cent of the 20,000 or so proteins in the human body, and made the data freely available bit.ly/3eV7ZM7

Awesome review by Fabienne Brilot Angelo Lopez, and Sudarshini Ramanathan on autoimmune CNS demyelination! Beautiful figures might I add 8-) #MOGAD #MS

Check out our 2nd place Nikon Small World video. Images in our vascularized micro-tumor device, it shows microvessels (red) forming over time and growing micro tumors (cyan) as they respond to contact with those vessels.

Our work in the lab is part of a global research effort to change the course of #COVID19. One way we have done this is by developing “supercharged” cells that help us quickly understand the dynamics of different variants of the #SARSCoV2 virus. #ScienceWeek

Learn more about how Stuart Turville and his team use these “supercharged” cells to understand how different variants of #SARSCoV2 react to vaccines and to inform the public health response in real time. #ScienceWeek kirby.unsw.edu.au/news/superchar…

A team from the Kids Neuroscience Centre dubbed the ‘Spikies’ have been undertaking important research into COVID-19. Working alongside the Kirby Institute, UNSW, they have been examining the protective antibody response towards proteins in the virus. Read more: schn.health.nsw.gov.au/news/articles/…

#MOGAD diagnosis relies on #MOG-IgG. Our new paper shows that gold standard LIVE assays can be translated to diagnostic testing. Proud of Angelo Lopez and Sam Houston and grateful to Fiona Tea Alicia Ganesha Liyanage AnnekeVdWalt Sudarshini Ramanathan Russell Dale bit.ly/3jOG5E3

What a time to be alive! 🎉 A live cell based assay that is - couldn’t have done it without Sam Houston, Fabienne Brilot and all our amazing collaborators. Check out our latest work to translate an in-house live MOG antibody assay for diagnostic testing! #MOGAD #MOG

Congratulations Angelo Lopez Sam, and Fabienne Brilot ! It is great to be part of the wonderful translative work towards a better diagnosis of MOGAD.

Thank you Prat Lab and everyone involved in #CanProCo ! Thanks ISNI-The International Society of Neuroimmunology for a great first day of neuroimmunology! Looking forward to the days ahead. 🧠🤓

2nd poster session at #ISNI2021 today 7-9 pm GMT/2-4 pm EST and we will be happy to answer questions! Come see us: #210 (Bettina Zierfuss), #353 (@Antoine262708790), #373 (Camille Grasmuck), #360 (Ali Filali), and #206 (Karine T )

In 2021 we made tools to rapidly capture & analyse live SARS CoV2 variants. To rank them for evasion to antibodies we used antibodies pooled from thousands of convalescent/ vaccinated donors. In late November we isolated the first Omicron case in a Australia. Here is its rank

After years of hard work we finally published the DICAM story! Props to Camille and Marc who led this study 💪🙌I’m very proud to be part of this story🔥🔬🧫Prat Lab Centre de recherche du CHUM @MSSocietyCanada International Women in MS #iWiMS #MultipleSclerosis ISNI-The International Society of Neuroimmunology
