Incredibly excited to announce the release of my first author paper @ScienceAdvances detailing the work of my PhD which identified a new role for DECTIN-1 in driving Treg differentiation and modifying severe autoimmunity in CTLA-4 haploinsufficiency. Thank you so much to everyone involved especially my supervisors Carola Vinuesa @VinuesaLab and Pablo Canete @PabloCanete6, all our co-authors, and my patient and his family who made this work possible!

Intriguingly, PIP is also seen to bind to the voltage sensors in the deactivated state. We propose that these factors contribute to PIP’s ability to reduce channel activity by making them harder to open and slower to recover to the closed resting state.
