Systems immunology is not only immunology with more data. It is a new way of thinking about immune systems as integrated multiagent systems w particular value for making variable human immune system more interpretable: cell.com/trends/immunology/f…

Melbourne researchers have unlocked why children are more likely to develop asthma after early exposure to antibiotics. Professor Ben Marsland speaks to @mikeamor7 about the research. 7NEWS.com.au #7NEWS

Viruses, OTT cleanliness, genetics … all these have been linked to a higher chance of having #asthma. Now, @Benjmarsland has led research isolated the molecule IPA: when subjected to antibiotic onslaught, IPA disappears from the airways, taking with it valuable protection against asthma. Here’s Ben being interviewed in the lab with reporters from @7NewsMelbourne and @10NewsFirstMelb
