Happy to share this interesting study which is now in press. We found specific Non-tuberculous mycobacterial susceptibility linked to GATA2 mutation in immunocompromised individuals @uchicagobsd.bsky.social @jci-insight.bsky.social insight.jci.org/articles/vie...

Newest paper from the lab out today (doi.org/10.1084/jem....)! Here, we describe PathMHC, a novel MS-based approach to identify rare pathogen-derived peptides on MHC-I and MHC-II. We apply this to a range of pathogens Mtb, SARS-CoV-2, and Listeria.

Targeting infection-specific peptides in immunopeptidomics studies for vaccine target discovery
MS-based immunopeptidomics can facilitate vaccine antigen discovery, but self-MHC peptides greatly outnumber pathogen-derived MHC peptides, presenting a ch

Happy to be part of this cool paper ! BCG trial for prevention of COVID-19 in healthcare workers, interrupted with speedy arrival of the COVID vaccines. The vaccinated cohort 12-months later show improved COVID-19 immunity, key player DNA methylation! #BCG #DNAmethylation @globaltb.bsky.social

A good day spent in listening to talks from four neighboring labs which are incidentally on the same floor . From #proteinengineering , #phageengineering , hightroughput #microfluidics and traditional conditional knockout #micemodels . #uchicago . Science is in good hands !

TB reclaims title of deadliest infectious disease. That's an 'outrage' says WHO
DIslodged by COVID early in the pandemic, tuberculosis is once again the infectious disease that takes the most lives each year. And the number of cases set a new record. What's going on?

I made a Starter Pack for the Myco & TB community. Hope to find more good friends here on Bluesky to keep in touch about mycobacterial infections. Please join and repost! go.bsky.app/3nwpcVV
