Great news to hear Yanpu is joining our immunology and bioengineering community here at UBC soon. We are looking forward to it!

Why sometimes you need a PI

Half of Canadians are women.

Yet we “know less about almost every aspect of female biology than we do about male biology”.

There are sex-based differences in disease, diagnosis, response to treatment and outcomes.

I asked the government questions on women’s health.

This is tragic and predictable. Every anti-vaccine voice should take a long, deep look at what they are contributing to. Vaccines save lives, millions upon millions of lives. There is no debate.

TIllie is a treasure for UBC and HLI....super smart, super dedicated to research in an unmet need (COPD and asthma) and a wonderful collaborator. Watch this space!

First time seeing #aurora lights!! 🤩🤩🤩 #vancouver

It's #InternationalDayOfImmunology 🦠💉Cheers to my #Immunology #Friends for being a crucial part of my #journey . For making this field amazing & always able to share anything to make it incredibly rewarding to overcome the challenges!

Thanks so much to Science World ImmunoT, our sponsors, the public and stellar panelists (K Sherwood, D Sin, Peter Mui, T Steiner, C MacArthur,G Oldani) for celebrating the Int. Day of Immunology! Partnerships (patients/clinicians/scientists) is everything!

What a great event and sincere thanks to the outstanding Tokuyama Team. Not only great educators to the public but they're really pushing new frontiers in how the immune response is regulated....keep an eye on this crew

Awesome UBC Dept of Microbiology and Immunology ImmunoT student volunteers Science World for #dayofimmunology 🙌

The potential to use mRNA as a general therapeutic modality is limited by its instability and low translation capacity. A paper in Nature Biotechnology reports on mRNA with engineered poly(A) tails, which produces prolonged higher levels of protein. 🔒 go.nature.com/3xTCDSB

Thx to support from UBC Dept of Microbiology and Immunology ; UBC Life Sciences Institute ; UBC School of Biomedical Engineering ; Miltenyi Biotec . Everyone is having a great time learning how important Immunology is !!🥹
