An excellent resource for career advice… Canadian Society for Immunology Microbiology & Immunology Schulich WesternU

So proud of the Canadian Society for Immunology (CSI) and the EDI Committee for letting us examine our historical data and analyze our successes and remaining challenges in EDI: Truly a model for how societies can move the cause forward by being data-driven and open. Kudos to all!

A privilege to meet and host Professor Philippe Gros of ⁦⁦⁦McGill University⁩, an Officer of the Order of Canada, as our annual RGE Murray lecturer. ⁦Western University⁩ ⁦Schulich WesternU⁩ ⁦Microbiology & Immunology⁩

As #measles cases continue to rise, scientists fear its long-term side effect ‘immune amnesia’ could wreck havoc. In a National Geographic article, #SchulichMedDent ’s Mansour Haeryfar (@haeryfar) explains how measles infection can make one immunosuppressed. brnw.ch/21wHp7w

Learning about #TGF signaling in #Treg cells from Dr. Wanjun Chen of ⁦NIH⁩ during his exciting seminar and over dinner while discussing #immunology and petty much everything else…

Thanks to support received through the Western University work-study program, it is now possible to browse through all Canadian Society for Immunology bulletins since 1969 and also get to know the Society’s past presidents since 1966 👇

It is sad to see outbreaks of otherwise #vaccine -preventable diseases. One of the dangerous consequences of #measles is adaptive/innate “immune amnesia”, which makes patients susceptible to unrelated infections (doi.org/10.1371/journa…). inquirer.com/health/measles…
