Replying to @VirusesImmunity
To summarize, we found a natural antibody secreted by B-1 cells that binds to terminal GlcNAc on diverse viral envelope proteins but not host cells. I co-founded a company, PanV Inc, to develop broadly reactive antiviral mAbs for human use. @yaleventures (14/) linkedin.com/company/panv/

Inspiring #LUImmunotalk by @marcus_buggert from @karolinskainst about human tissue resident CD8 T cells. Thanks to all who attended @medfak_LU @Lund_Stem @LuWcmm @MediconVillage, loved seeing the seminar room at full capacity today🍁🎃💪🏾

This week I got to spend time with one of the scientists that have inspired our work on #ELOB cells the most. Dr John F Kearney @UABMicrobiology. Life is good! How does early life B cell imprinting influence your favorite immune response?

🙏Huge thank you to @KAW for funding our collaborative project across three Swedish Universities to 'Dissect the unexplored dimensions of B cell memory'. We will explore hidden layers of B cell memory to better understand the anatomy of a potent and durable antibody response!🎉

Happy to have contributed to this exciting work by good friend @katha_lahl and colleagues! By time-stamping early life origin B cells we helped to show that B cell priming is not delayed by the presence of maternal abs! #ELOB #Bcells #LUImmunotalks @Lund_Stem @medfak_LU
Here's the latest in greatest (I think...😃) from our lab! If you end up having a look and have any comments I'd love to hear them! Maternal immunity protects offspring from enteric viral infection without negatively affecting humoral immune memory biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Passive immunity from mother to offspring is important for protecting against infections early in life but can also hamper immune responses to vaccines in newborns. This is why some vaccines are not given as early after birth as we'd like (ex measles). New interesting work from @katha_lahl lab & @TheYuanLab show that de novo immune responses are in fact delayed, but not blunted by maternal abs with B cell responses traced back to original infection by lineage tracing. Nice work! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Lund does immunology! #LUImunotalks starts next Tuesday at 10 where neonatal immune development and protection will be center stage! Don't miss this opportunity interact with your colleagues @medfak_LU @Lund_Stem @LuWcmm
