📢 We're hiring a postdoc! How do dendritic cells decide what a T cell becomes ? We're looking for a postdoctoral researcher to answer that question using genome-wide CRISPR screens in primary human T cells. @inflames-flagship.bsky.social @medicity.bsky.social www.nature.com/naturecareer...

Our @natcomms.nature.com paper is finally out! 🚀 rdcu.be/eQnYW Using scRNA-seq and Visium HD, we mapped lymphatics in metastatic lymph nodes from breast cancer patients and discovered striking lymphatic remodeling that shapes subsequent metastasis. Massive thanks to all collaborators!!!

Workouts can help gut microbes to quell cancer
Mice that exercised produced higher levels of an immune-cell-stimulating molecule than sedentary rodents did.
