I’m here today because of the women who came before me.

Mid-February is the new date for J&J vaccinations in South Africa. The government has finally released a clearer explanation of its new vaccination plan:

My name is Sue and I am obsessed with crafting. I am mainly into knitting and DIY decor crafts. Currently, I am upcycling empty wine and whisky bottles, turning them into amazing decor accessories for your home or office. Kindly like and/or retweet to support my hustle.

SISONKE resumed in RSA *yesterday, Wednesday 27 April* All health care workers, including traditional healers, can register for vaccination by going onto the website - vaccine.enroll.health.gov.za

Very happy to share our just published online paper on IRF1-IRF4 Toggle-Switch controlling human LC behaviour. James Davies not only identifies the switch, but shows its working at different body sites, fine-tuning immune responses to tissue context. frontiersin.org/article/10.338…

It's a collaborative work with UCT Health Sciences. Massive thank you to all the contributing authors, from Southampton Medicine Andres F Vallejo 🧬 💻,Sofia Sirvent Kalum Clayton, @GemmaPorter1991,@patrickstumpf01, Ben MacArthur Jonathan West and UCT: Nyaradzo Chigorimbo, Yamkela Qumbeli and Clive Gray

Reminder - recognise lots of data constantly: single dose J and J shown to have 85%reduction of severe disease and death even in the face of beta variant. Lab data supports better immunogenicity of jnj against delta than beta. So good news!

I stand with the women of Iran who are putting their lives on the line to protest their government in the name of #MahsaAmini. No woman should have to fear retaliation, imprisonment or death for making choices about what they wear or how they present themselves to the world.

Incredible science today at the Cornell University 2022 Immunogenomics symposium. Great talks by Soumya Raychaudhuri সৌম্য রায়চৌধুরী , Golnaz Vahedi , Yvon Woappi Martin Stražar , Madhav Mantri Ellen Rothenberg and others. Inspired

Great start to #cshlimmune Gene expression and signalling in the immune system conference CSHL Meetings. Great kickstart by Golnaz Vahedi ,intersting talk on epigenetic regulation in macrophages during viral infection by Josefowicz Lab and many others.

Really cool meeting with Sophia Liukko and Fei Chen Lab discussing cool single cell transcriptomics options in tissue :-)

When the data for the experiment that really supports your hypothesis verifies your hypothesis!!!!!! #cryinglaughing

The latest Ph.D from our lab!!! MaNda So proud!!!

samrc.ac.za/press-releases… So proud of our BRILLIANT scientists here in Msanzi Linda-Gail Bekker and team for taking our South African science to the next level!

The research team showed up at the #IUIS2023 its everything vaccines and immunology.

#IUIS2023 is Rocking!!!! Nice to hear how this technology is being applied to potentially make an impact in the lives of those affected by sickle cell anemia. #sciencematters #sciencechangeslives #womenscientists

Excited to see this work out on World AIDS day! Gabrielle Lê-Bury, Saikat Boliar!

An HIV vaccine can end HIV- we should just get on with it. Three decades of empirical search for a safe and effective vaccine - our strategy is now deductive and responding to what we have learnt from the empirical trials - there is hope!!! Thanks Julie McElrath #CROI2024
