In this month’s #ScienceImmunology special issue: @maurogaya.bsky.social and team find that barrier tissue-specific cues influence B cell receptor isotype usage, shaping the memory response. Read more here: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Mucosal tissue cues shape B cell memory through the IgA BCR
Divergent B cell memory strategies evolved in lung and gut mucosa to counteract recurrent pathogens.

#Science #Immunology turns 10 years old this month! We celebrate w/ a Special Issue on immune #memory! Check out our 3 outstanding Reviews by Maziar & Kaufmann; @sjturn.bsky.social, Thiele, & @niclag.bsky.social; & @maurogaya.bsky.social & @kimljacobson.bsky.social out this week! scim.ag/448rEkV
The July 2026 cover of Science Immunology features an illustration depicting an avatar of the immune system playing a memory game, in which previously encountered pathogens are remembered. The scene is framed by an unspooling chromosome, highlighting the critical role that epigenetic reprogramming plays in both innate and adaptive immune memory. (Credit: Ada Zejun Shen)

2 years ago, with @immunologyking.bsky.social, we came up with the idea of organising a meeting on resident lymphocytes. After a lot of preparation, the EMBO workshop Adaptive Immunity in Barrier Tissues is taking place this week. I'm off to Basel🚂🇨🇭, very excited about #EMBOBarrierTissues meeting.

Yesterday I decided to close my Twitter account after 15 years. I couldn't see his owner make a Nazi salut and stay there. Even if I thought Twitter was funnier than Bluesky. Let's make this place fun to be in 🤪
