Check out this terrific paper by George Chamilos and colleagues on the role of albumin in defense against mucormycosis. It was a treat to write the preview with Katrina Mar.

Brilliant statement I’ve been very impressed with how @ameracadpeds.bsky.social has been fighting the horrific misinformation and science denialism peddled by RFK Jr & his minions

🎓 Huge congratulations to Kathleen Mills from the @fungalspore.bsky.social Hohl Lab on successfully defending her thesis: "Epithelial-Immune Cell Crosstalk Orchestrates Pulmonary Immunity to Aspergillus fumigatus" Her strong, dedicated presence in the program will truly be missed! 💫🧬

So happy to see this story come together. Check it out! Kathleen Mills and many collaborators - GM-CSF–mediated epithelial-immune cell cross-talk orchestrates pulmonary immunity to Aspergillus fumigatus | Science Immunology www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

GM-CSF–mediated epithelial-immune cell cross-talk orchestrates pulmonary immunity to Aspergillus fumigatus

During mold infection, epithelial-derived GM-CSF licenses neutrophil killing of fungal cells, leading to improved survival.

Recent IMP retreat hike with colleagues Ming Li, Alan Hanash, Sasha Rudensky, Andrea Schietinger, and Jayanta Chaudhury. Come join us on #BlueSky and add to the growing number of immunologists on the platform. Is anyone working on an #Immunology starter pack?

I am a transplant infectious disease physician with a laboratory research program in medical mycology and mucosal immunology, with a focus on Aspergillus, and in mycobiota science. I work at MSK in NYC with a wonderful group of graduate students, fellows, and postdocs.
