So happy🥳4 Zahraa Alraies & all the colleagues from Institut Curie Matthieu Piel Lennon Lab 4 publishing this cool story! Mechanical cues sensed by iDCs via cPLA2-Arp2/3 are relayed into transcriptional programs endowing the DCs w.tolerogenic potential nature.com/articles/s4159…

How women IMAGINE they'd react to sexual harassment is wildly different from how they ACTUALLY react when harassed. Julie Woodzicka & Marianne LaFrance created sexual harassment in lab and tested how women reacted when harassed by a male interviewer in real time. What happened:🧵
