I’m seeing some “free market” simps defending Nature’s 12k open access fees. Guess it’s time to bring this back around.

How do systemic PAMPs become accessible to cytosolic PRRs in vivo? Thrilled to have our work out @NatureCellBio showing Host EVs capture and escort systemic LPS to cytosol activating Casp11 & pyroptosis. Congrats to Puja @dolly_puja, who led the work. 1/3 nature.com/articles/s41556-0…

Intestinal inflammation is driven by unrestrained activation of IFNγ-producing CD4+ T cells and depletion of peripherally induced regulatory T cells through Fcγ receptor signaling.
#MicrobiotaPower! Anti-tumor checkpoint blockade therapy can lead to #colitis, Nunez &co show @ScienceMagazine that this happens in mice that harbor microbiota of wildlings. Colitis is driven by FcgR that depletes Tregs & boosts IFNg production by T cells! science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Fantastic ⁦@Nature⁩ by Nir Hacohen &co! They created gene transcription maps at the single cell level for 17 different cell types in the lymph node in response to each of the 86 cytokines & develop a tool to infer from RNAseq data cytokine activity! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Being a mid-career professor is different in a lot of ways from being junior faculty. I worry we are not providing them with the support they need to grow in their jobs, potentially squandering the talent we invested decades in nurturing. (Not just funding.)

We highlight how the human microbiome can shape disease outcomes in cutaneous leishmaniasis and suggest pathways toward host-directed therapies to mitigate the inflammatory consequences. Nice work @amorim_cfa @microbiome @RNAseq @immunology science.org/doi/10.1126/scit…

Insights from @LionakisLab: Mibrobial dysbiosis worsens cutaneous leishmaniasis. @tpsinglab, @pscottlab et al (bit.ly/3MgOlen) show that Rorγt+ regulatory T cells suppress pathogenic IFN-γ responses to control Staphylococcus aureus growth bit.ly/48Y7iMy

Using Foxp3+ Treg cell counts, we categorized patients in a skin #RNAseq dataset. In Leishmania+S.aureus co-infection cases, low Foxp3+ Treg levels connect to harmful IFN-g #inflammation and slower healing, unveiling its dual role in infections. #NGS #datawrangling #translational – at Philadelphia, PA
Study by Singh, Scott et al. @PennMedicine involving mice and #Leishmania braziliensis patients reveals that Treg levels function as a rheostat, controlling bacteria in the skin & influencing whether bacteria induce IL-17 or IFN-γ-mediated immunopathology. bit.ly/3MgOlen

Admissions tip - we’re not primarily selecting candidates based on “merit.” We’re selecting based on “how likely are they to successfully complete our program.” That is our primary concern, student success. Apply accordingly.
