In more than 180 patients who had recovered from #COVID19, both antibody and immune cell responses were measurable for up to 8 months after symptoms appeared, in some cases, a new study by @Dani6020 Alessandro Sette Prof. Shane Crotty & colleagues shows. fcld.ly/rn5fybc

I wonder if Radiation from CT Scans and X Rays is fueling the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 mutants. Should CT/X ray rooms require a thorough and validatable surface & airborne disinfection each time they have a Covid-19 patient? #COVID19 #medicalimaging #AcademicChatter #hypothesis

#Bitcoin consumes yearly the same #Energy as Switzerland and Colombia combined. On top of it, most of its energy comes from burning Coal. Not to discuss here if it is a bubble or even an actual currency, but certainly does not fit into a sustainable future cbeci.org

Red Blood cells are now known to be part of the innate immune response through a DNA sensing mechanism, that is really So cool! At the end this should not be completely unexpected, after all red blood cells are bone marrow CD34+ derivatives like all their immune cousins

This is the COOLEST. A Google Earth-type representation of the planet. Every green dot is a radio station. Click any dot to listen in. It’s like cultural teleportation. You could spend hours with this thing… radio.garden

To get your first machine learning project done: ▫️ Pick something you care about ▫️ Break it into smaller pieces ▫️ Focus on one piece at a time ▫️ If it's too hard, break it more ▫️ Find how others have done it ▫️ Improve upon it ▫️ Dedicate 1 hour every day ▫️ Write about it

A new method allows researchers to analyse the dynamics of immunological synapses while avoiding the limitations of fluorescence microscopy. The approach combines deep learning algorithms and a 3D imaging technique called optical diffraction tomography elifesciences.org/articles/49023…

Here’s the deal: The Delta variant is more contagious, it’s deadlier, and it’s spreading quickly around the world – leaving young, unvaccinated people more vulnerable than ever. Please, get vaccinated if you haven’t already. Let’s head off this strain before it’s too late.

Tomorrow are #elections in #Mexico, and Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo could make history in becoming the first female president in the North American hemisphere. Since 2018 the Mexican Economy jumped from the 15th place to become in 2024 the 12th biggest Global Economy🇲🇽. #ClaudiaSheinbaum
