It’s a big day for us today as we share the KuehLab’s latest work, just out in Immunity . We set out to understand how memory T cells form, and we found remarkable flexibility in their lineage pathways from naive progenitors: authors.elsevier.com/c/1iWf0_OR~yi0…

So proud to share our work on memory T cell generation, now out in Immunity! This huge paper is the heroic work of kathleenabadie, Elisa Clark and Raj Valanparambil from RafiAhmedLab.

Join us for the 2024 ImmunOctoberfest meeting! 🍺🔬 Registration for the event is now open at: immunoctoberfest.de

One late night in NYC, Amanda Lund Lab, Nik Joshi, and I were eating some 1am midtown pizza (many drinks had been consumed). "You know what would be awesome? A Keystone Symposia that's all about T cell differentiation in tissues!" And here we are: keysym.us/KSTCells25 1/

🚨LOST DOG🚨 Our dog, Smoltz, got out this weekend while friends were watching him. He’s a tan/apricot standard poodle, microchipped. Please be on the lookout for him, especially if you live on the westside of Atlanta in the Moore’s mill/bolton area where he was last seen.

We are looking for post-docs interested in studying T cell responses to M. tuberculosis infection. The NIH intramural program is an amazing place to train! Check us out.

Today in @Science_Magazine we report the laboratory evolution of compact degrons that enable targeted protein degradation triggered by an otherwise-inert small molecule, a multidisciplinary study that integrates organic chemistry, molecular glues, protein evolution, genome

Why do activated T/B cells wait to divide? Why is there heterogeneity in their daughter cell responses? How do we find peace in these troubled times? Check the Bailis Lab’s FIRST PAPER (🎉) for insight into 2 of these 3 questions! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Excited to announce the publication of my PhD work with Will Bailis in Science Immunology! Many thanks to the lab and collaborators for making this possible! We asked if the immune system regulates the strength of its response through cellular metabolism. Read on to learn more 🧵

Next article in the lead up to #WorldTBDay 🫁 on March 24: Taylor Foreman, Daniel Barber, PhD et al. show that, in mice, CD30 drives T cell differentiation and is required for host survival of Mycobacterium #tuberculosis infection ➡️ hubs.la/Q02pR6Y-0 #endTB

Marked this talk on my AAI schedule, so excited to check out the associated manuscript out in J Immunol today Masopust Vezys Lab J. Michael Stolley First lung infection permanently enlarges LN to enhnace new T cell responses doi.org/10.4049/jimmun…

Dr. Rafi Ahmed talks about big discoveries & the people who helped make them happen. Forever grateful to have been in the RafiAhmedLab Emory University player.vimeo.com/video/93813504…

Congratulations to Dr. Steve Jameson (Jameson Hogquist labs) on his appointment as the President of AAI for the 2024-2025 term! We at CFI are proud to celebrate his accomplishments and look forward to the impactful leadership he will provide to the AAI community. z.umn.edu/9iv3

We’ve known about tolerant CD8+ T cells for >25 yrs – but what are these cells?! Prematurely exhausted, stalled effectors, or something else? Our latest Immunity paper takes a deep dive into this question with some unexpected results, including a link to cancer… (1/)

Excited to share our perspective on resident memory T cells in solid tumors!!Huge thanks to Immunity and Jodi Gullicksrud. Amazing figures and artwork from Katarina Cheng and support from the whole Masopust Vezys Lab team. kwnsfk27.r.eu-west-1.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2…

T cell diversity - separating facts from fiction. I am super excited to host local-global leaders in the field of T cell immunology at the Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften on Dec 2 2024. Participation is free and open for everyone. More information and registration here: badw.de/veranstaltunge…

10 days to go! We are itching to be back here and see you all!
