Incredibly excited to finally share my PhD work with the world! Huge gratitude to the Daniels Lab team, collaborators, and mentors who helped bring this project to life. Learn more about the work in our tweetorial below 👇
🚨What if we could reliably program macrophage polarization state?🚨 biorxiv.org/content/10.64898… Macrophages are highly plastic immune cells that perform critical functions by polarizing into distinct cellular states. The polarization state of macrophages can substantially influences the progression of cancers, infections, and autoimmunity. (1/11)

I was fortunate to be part of the NIH postbac intramural program after undergrad - a transformative experience that catalyzed my career and led me to where I am today. There is no world where we should we diminish investment in the next generation of our scientific researchers.

Having such a wonderful time this week learning and discussing research ideas at the @Biologie_ENS @PslQlife @psl_univ Genomics of Transposable Elements course. Can't believe it's already half over!

Excited to share the latest preprint with @MikeAngeloLab! While imaging studies often focus on cell objects, images capture significant info outside of cells. Enter Pixie, a pipeline for the quantitative annotation of both pixel and cell level features🧵biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited to announce our first ever MIBI workshop! We'll be talking about the new tools our lab has developed for generating, processing, and analyzing MIBI data. We'll also be going over our workflow for reagent validation, panel design, and troubleshooting pesky antibodies.
