Degranulation enhances presynaptic membrane packing, which protects NK cells from perforin-mediated autolysis dlvr.it/S50KQl

We are looking for a few highly motivated post-doctoral fellows interested in NK biology and cellular therapy. Message me!

Congrats to my talented postdoc Simon Grassmann 草人 (learning Mandarin ;)) on his recent award from Cancer Research Institute, joining Colleen M. Lau and Adriana Mujal as CRI fellows. I'm looking forward to all of the amazing discoveries Simon will make! cancerresearch.org/scientists/cri…

When is a T cell secretly an NK cell? Rosa Sottile, M. Kazim Panjwani, and Jean-Benoît Le Luduec in the Hsu Lab found out in this week's issue of Science Immunology, with help from Colleen M. Lau in Joseph Sun Lab and Anthony Daniyan! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

A new @sloan_kettering, Weill Cornell Medicine study presents an intersection of adaptive and innate #immunity: Killer T cells that acquire features of natural killer cells and enhanced cell killing capacity, which emerge in human #cytomegalovirus infection: fcld.ly/u3yz9sc

Lunch at Central Park.. we could get used to this! 😋 Thanks #MSKfunfund and Dr. Ushma Neill

Dr. Hsu and Rosa Sottile spoke with the news team @sloan_kettering about the "double sword"-ed hybrid cytotoxic lymphocyte described in our recent Science Immunology paper, and how following up on the basic biology behind surprising observations still drives potential new therapies.

We were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Dr. Christine Biron. She was a gifted scientist, wonderful mentor, and true pioneer in the NK cell field in so many ways. golocalprov.com/obituaries/for…

By the way, Zeguang Wu has the cover of both The Journal of Immunology AND Science Signaling right now! jimmunol.org/content/207/10 science.org/toc/signaling/…

Partners In Health announced that its founder, Dr. Paul Farmer, unexpectedly passed away today in his sleep while in Rwanda. Dr. Farmer was 62 years old. He is survived by his wife, Didi Bertrand Farmer, and their three children. 1/🧵
