Great keynote lecture by Ruslan Medzhitov on how the “educated” immune system of pet shop mice allows them to resist experimental allergic sensitisation. Thought provoking, as usual. #IUIS2025.

Just arrived in Lisbon for the first day of our lab retreat. Massive queue for passport control. Not enough staff and half the electronic gates do not work. What a shameful welcome to visitors to Portugal!

There are few moments more rewarding in running a lab than having a student defend their PhD thesis. Congratulations Dr. @marianapdc.bsky.social for this amazing achievement. And thanks to @lloydlab.bsky.social and Bart Lambrecht for being the examiners.
