Wonderful to see our paper out in @Nature today! What happens if we experimentally challenge young healthy seronegative adult volunteers with SARS-CoV-2 and apply single cell multi-omics? Not everyone subsequently gets COVID-19! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Mere hours later, "Five people including a child have died in an attempt to cross in a small boat". "Illegal immigration minister Michael Tomlinson insists the deterrent effect will "kick in" when the flights start". Horrific. bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-polit…

Five including child die trying to cross from France to UK

The deaths come hours after the UK Parliament passes its Rwanda bill, which aims to deter small boat crossings.

"The current shareholders which include UK and Canadian pension funds [and] Chinese and Gulf State investors pulled the planned £500m cash injection when Ofwat rejected proposals to raise customer bills by 40% above inflation by 2030." Is this sovereignty? bbc.co.uk/news/business-6874…

The stability of our water systems is at the whim of investors who demanded a forty percent increase! Thankfully it was blocked, but this is a direct, expensive impact that private investors attempted to exert over Britons for an essential service.

Absolutely delighted to share our paper published today in @SciImmunology in collaboration with @teichlab. Huge congratulations to amazing co-first authors @DrJoBarnes, @masahiroy15, @PengHeCam! Team science! science.org/doi/10.1126/scii…

Early human lung immune cell development and its role in epithelial cell fate

Immune cell populations change substantially over time in developing human lungs and can contribute to epithelial cell fate decisions.

#DYK not all leeches feed on blood 🩸? Many are predators of invertebrates and some specialize on hunting earthworms🪱 After all, other worms are a perfectly shaped meal for them 🍝 I think this is a species of Orobdella, a group of primarily Japanese leeches that feed on worms

This article shows how science is held back by bigotry in nations trying to build their research, as if one needed more of a reason for equality than just protecting lives. elifesciences.org/articles/9…
