🎉 New preprint from @aybv.bsky.social, grad student extraordinaire!! He found an unexpected function for IFN-I: priming the lung epithelium for repair! (With some help from our beloved macrophages). Congrats to Alan and the rest of the coauthors!

New preprint to share! Incredible collab w/ Fei Chen’s lab: developed in vivo CRISPR screening platform for 🫁 epithelium, allowing single cell perturbation in post-flu repair. Take a peek to see what we found! Huge congrats to the leaders of this work @daisyah.bsky.social & @sundakao.bsky.social 🎉

🚨 Action alert: Two days left!! Help protect NSF/NIH from political interference. 👎 A new rule (Sched. F) would allow for replacing career program officers with political appointees. ➡️ Action: Object here by THIS FRIDAY. Comments can be brief and/or anonymous. Helps future litigation.

On a day when all research grants at Harvard were terminated, and in a context where Congress seems to broadly accept the notion that destroying science and health research in the US is fine, it’s worth noting that this is not what the public wants.

Just said goodbye to my NIH MIRA award. Really hurts to see the word “terminated” in writing. Even worse to see it next to the F31 awarded to a fantastic PhD student in my lab @aybv.bsky.social. I REFUSE to let this stop us!!!

Hey #immunosky Looking at the AAI website for advocacy website I found this very easy letter you can send to your congressional reps by filling in your information. It's easily modifiable for non-immunologists 🧪 every small action matters www.aai.org/Public-Affai...

Excited to share the work of Jonathan Perr where he uncovered a surprisingly common feature of cell surfaces - the presentation and clustering of RNA binding proteins with #glycoRNA. Critically support by #NIH @cp-cell.bsky.social www.cell.com/cell/abstrac...

RNA-binding proteins and glycoRNAs form domains on the cell surface for cell-penetrating peptide entry

Mammalian cells present RNA-binding proteins on the cell surface that form clustered domains containing glycoRNAs.

Today I did the same! First post on Facebook in years to share what we will lose and why everyone should care!

In honor of International Day of Women & Girls in Science, call your reps & remind them the importance of scientific research, innovation, and education (cuts & freezes affect everyone, not just scientists and universities!) Research=lifesaving treatments, medical care, clinical trials, jobs & more!
