.Melissa Smith : better immune rep databases are necessary. Current state of databases are horrible…population-specific genomic references needed for better mapping. TCR genotype implicated in vaccine and drug responses. PacBio #PRISMBangkok

Honored to participate in #PRISMBangkok, hosted by PacBio The enthusiasm for inclusive #immunogenomics research was wonderful. Excited to build collaborations around the world! Biscuit felt so welcome.

Great way to end a long week. Thanks to my team and collaborators, particularly Easton E. Ford and Corey Watson who have made the move to University of Louisville four years ago the best decision I've ever made!

So excited and proud to congratulate my first student Easton E. Ford on the successful defense of his PhD thesis. Introducing Dr. Ford! BMG@UofL

This weekend, some of the Center’s MD/PhD students are at their retreat. Right now, Dan Nguyen (F30-awardee in the Hill Lab) is presenting one of his projects. And, in typical fashion, he is killing it.

Next up: Kara Gouwens, AHA-awardee, is presenting her newest project in the Hill Lab. She’s always thinking outside the box.

Attending the University of Louisville MD/PhD program retreat. Science is amazing, sunrise over the bluegrass landscape... even better. Steve Jones Eric Engelbrecht steven (he, his, him)

This is why I love my lab...

Want to join the amazing team we've been growing BMG@UofL ? I can't say enough about how fantastic it is to work with The Lovely Lab Corey Watson and the rest of the department. Apply below and DM me with questions! Please amplify! t.ly/yimva

This is great! NIAID News have launched a collection of public domain illustrations (currently 550 individual icons) bioart.niaid.nih.gov

So proud of Easton E. Ford - you deserve all the accolades!
