Honored to be a co-author on this brilliant work now out in Nature Communications on Fgl2 regulation of antitumor CD8 T cells by this powerhouse immunotherapy team, Drs. Ford and Bennion Mandy Ford Lab Kelsey B. Bennion Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University Emory Cancer Biology Program @MeganMWyatt nature.com/articles/s4146…

First paper of grad school is finally out! Check it out on Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer - thank you to all of my wonderful lab members for your help and support

Bennion et al. showed that exhausted antigen-specific PD-1+TCF-1− CD8+ T cells secreted the immunoregulatory cytokine fibrinogen-like protein 2 (Fgl2), which regulated CD8+ T cell responses against [...] bit.ly/4eRfIYQ  Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University  @emoryuniversity Kelsey B.

We are hiring! Apply for this postdoc position in @Pauloslab. We seek to work with immunologists eager to build our cellular therapy program. We generate novel CAR, TIL and TCR cell products to kill solid tumors! faculty-emory.icims.com/jobs/132570/po…

Doing good science is 90% finding a science buddy to constantly talk to about the project.

I am so excited to share my first author publication, “Differentiation fate of a stem-like CD4 T cell control immunity to cancer” published today in @nature, detailing the project I’ve been working on in Haydn Kissick’s lab. tinyurl.com/33d24k89

Excited to share one of the key pieces of my postdoc work! Our co-first author paper in out today Inside Cancer Cell explores how mannose supplementation metabolically programs T cell differentiation to boost anti-tumor immunity. Paper link: authors.elsevier.com/c/1kDHf5TA51hP…

Macrophage-derived Fgl2 dampens antitumor immunity through regulation of FcγRIIB+CD8+ T cells in melanoma JCI insight Mandy Ford Lab Kelsey B. Bennion insight.jci.org/articles/view/…

Excited to share my graduate work from the E. John Wherry lab on the molecular mechanisms locking in the differentiation fate of exhausted CD8 T cells (Tex), published earlier this month in @SciImmuno. Main findings below! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
