KalliesLab and I are excited to share our latest study in Nature Immunology dissecting the heterogeneity and function of VAT Tregs. Huge effort from Santiago Valle Torres and Kevin Man Doherty Institute UniMelb MDHS ONJ Cancer Research Institute La Trobe Institute for Molecular Science Thanks to all our collaborators!!

MYB regulates the differentiation of CD62L+TCF1+ stem-like CD8+ T cells. Cool new paper @nature from my dear friend Carlson Tsui (Twitter less) @kallieslab Doherty Institute and collaborators Veit Buchholz TU München. Congrats everyone!! Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology

There's been a lot of new data for Omicron in the last day, much still preliminary, but here's my summary of the good and bad

We are looking for a postdoc to study the differentiation of tumour infiltrating regulatory T cells. Expertise in tumour immunology and molecular biology preferred. DM me for details. Please use the link to apply!! ONJ Cancer Research Institute Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology

Tell me you don’t understand immunology without telling me you don’t understand immunology.

Vaccines do not change your DNA, indirectly or “a tiny bit.”

He’s referring to V(D)J recombination, which occurs normally. It’s fundamental to our immune system.

Relatable?😂😂 #AcademicTwitter

Excellent talk from colby - TL50x2 Monash Biomedicine Discovery Institute today in our ‘Treg interest group’ on epigenetic factors that control Treg induction and stability. This forum is open to all Australian Treg enthusiasts. Please DM me or Dr Charis Teh to join Australian and New Zealand Society for Immunology

Yep

Wenn man seine persönliche Freiheit und die Demonstrationsfreiheit über das öffentliche Interesse an der Gesundheit von tausenden Menschen stellt, dann hat man zwar seine Grundrechte ausgelebt, ist aber trotzdem ein egoistisches und unsolidarisches Arschloch.

Top 2 stories on ABC News just now: ‘Black Lives Matter protest ‘put other people’s lives at risk’ says PM.’ And ‘National Cabinet to allow crowds of up to 10,000 in stadiums.’ So gathering to support #BLM is dangerous but gathering for a football game is perfectly safe?

Thank you Science Immunology for highlighting our work!!

When this is all finished, can we please give a big increase in funding to immunology? The work we do is pivotal to most human diseases - infections, cancers, neurodegeneration, diabetes, cardiovascular.... fund immunology to prepare for the next catastrophe

I'm super proud of you Ajith Vasanthakumar and the rest of the Kallies team!!! @nature Doherty Institute WEHI (Walter and Eliza Hall Institute) nature.com/articles/s4158…

Went to an engaging workshop on Twitter for academics led by the fab Rachel Davis Mersey, Professor & Assoc dean of research Northwestern Medill Northwestern. She grounded the talk in research on media & psychology (👌🏼) & since I still consider myself a twitter noob here were my takeaways:

Researchers investigating why men are more prone to obesity and metabolic diseases have discovered the clearest mechanism yet for how the female and male immune systems operate differently. Find out more: go.unimelb.edu.au/vq7r

Leaving for my first PhD interview...

Mom: I'm praying for you.

Me: Thank you.

Mom: I know you don't believe in God, but at least pray to someone who, you know, created us, loves us, protects us.

Me: You just defined God.

Mom: JUST PRAY TO SOMETHING.
