A group of enthusiastic BSc students launched a new Instagram account to communicate interesting immunology facts: instagram.com/immuno_force_2…

(1/3) Our 30th Anniversary issue is online! To celebrate with the immunology community, we hosted an open call for cover submissions & were grateful to have received beautiful & creative submissions from across the world! The winning design featured on the cover of this

It's a busy week for out team, with Mariana presenting her work at SICR2024 and Beatriz H. Ferreira at #spi24

We have two open positions: we are hiring one PhD fellow and one research fellow to study the role of the microenvironment in Systemic Sclerosis pathogenesis. World Scleroderma Foundation

This week, the brilliant PhD student Beatriz H. Ferreira defended her thesis! It was an honour to have her as a student and to supervise her work alongside Philippe Pierre and Iola Duarte!

The first episode of the new podcast from the Portuguese Society for Immunology, where Bruno Silva-Santos discusses cancer immunotherapy, is now available – English version: open.spotify.com/episode/0lfgzB… Please share! Thank you! 

We are ready to share our research tonight during the #EuropeanResearchersNight Universidade Aveiro #NEI2024 #scleroderma #SSc #autoimmunedisease

🧬 Patients prone to autoimmune diseases have mutations in genes that regulate the body response to stress. With support from #CaixaResearch, Philippe Pierre will investigate this relationship in a rare autoinflammatory disease with childhood onset called SAVI. 👇

We have two available fellowships for students interested in pursuing a PhD project on novel molecular networks regulating Pathological Inflammatory Conditions #autoimmunity #SAVI

Very happy to share that our latest paper is out in Cell Comm and Signaling! We found that ER stress in a pDC cell line drives fibroblast activation, shedding light on #fibrosis mechanisms in #SystemicSclerosis. #Scleroderma Beatriz H. Ferreira World Scleroderma Foundation link.springer.com/article/10.118…

Very happy to share our publication in Arthritis Research & Therapy 😊 We found that pDC from #SystemicSclerosis patients with different autoantibodies show different #metabolic requirements. rdcu.be/eaAps Beatriz H.
