B cells in Aranda et al.:In addition to revealing the type2-marked IgG memory B cells, our manuscript has nice scRNAseq analysis of human blood B cells (naïve, memory and plasma from blood of adult atopic and non-atopic subjects.

This week's new issue of #ScienceTranslationalMedicine has arrived! Researchers uncover stealthy immune saboteurs that drive allergic memory in humans, a new analysis in mice reveals how the brain recovers after stroke, and more. scim.ag/5N7

Super cool cover for the Science Translational Medicine Feb 7 24 issue by Claud Spadafora and Joshua Koenig.

Terrific editorial work at Science Translational Medicine. A great journal to send your work to!

It’s been 10y since we opened our lab at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. What an exciting ride and supportive environment it has been. We are now moving to Columbia University Columbia Pediatrics . Thrilled at the future and discoveries in genetics and immunology to come.

Important news for pediatric food allergy!! The FDA approved anti-IgE (Omalizumab) treatment to reduce reactions to accidental exposures to allergenic foods. More in nih.gov/news-events/ne….

Results of the first stage of the NIAID funded CoFAR OUtMATCH trial, involving 10 sites including Mount Sinai (Scott Sicherer, PI) were just reported nejm.org/doi/pdf/10.105…

New work from the Victora lab (Victora Lab is at Bluesky) explains why in secondary immunizations, new germinal centers form from naïve cells that bind poorly to the antigen. It’s all about pre-existing antibodies! nature.com/articles/s4157… biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Dear Dusan and Dusanites colleagues: we will miss you big time!!! Best wishes as you move to the other side of town. BogunovicLab

It’s a huge honor to receive this year the MIT Martin Luther King Jr. Leadership award and could not agree more with the theme for this 50th year celebration: "We must remember that intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character -that is the goal of true education.”

Congratulations Hernandez!

Extreme budget cuts for science in Argentina can put in peril generations of scientists. nature.com/articles/d4158…
