1) I feel this paper by Mattias Forsell's group is often overlooked but shows something very important: Binding antibody to SARS-CoV-2 spike - in the absence of strong neutralizing antibodies to a new variant - predict protection from mortality. thelancet.com/journals/lanep….

The lab is recruiting! We're at Karolinska, in Stockholm. We're looking for:
- a postdoc with a computational/statistical background, with an interest in evolution and/or deep learning
- a few `wetlab' roles, including a postdoc ("antibody stuff"), and lab tech/admin folks. 1/n

On the 7th of October, our first grad student Andy Dernstedt defended their thesis “Life and death of human B cells in health and disease”. Here, Andy described multiple aspects of the B cell life cycle during infection and vaccination. Congratulations on your degree! 🎓🥳

Happy to share our latest publication: Anti-spike mucosal IgA protection against SARS-Cov-2 omicron infection.
Fantastic collaboration with Charlotte Thålin @SmedSorensenLab @KimBlom10 and many more!

86% efficacy for the @pfizer RSV prefusion F vaccine in the elderly is extremely good news! Looks like there will be multiple RSV vaccines available soon for this target population. Still looking forward to seeing the data later this year from their maternal vaccine trial.

Received an email from Rino Rappuoli this morning informing me, @BarneyGrahamMD and Peter Kwong of the positive phase III data for the RSV prefusion F vaccine results in older adults. It's been almost 10 years since we designed the first prefusion RSV F antigen, DS-Cav1. Amazing!

Happy to see our latest #Covidvaccination study in @regionskane published in @Eurosurveillanc
Main message - booster dose necessary to maintain sufficient protection against severe disease.

Enjoyed listening to @profvrr and colleagues discussing our recent work in @ScienceTM on broadly protective human antibodies vs hantaviruses in TWiV 881 (microbe.tv/twiv/twiv-881/). Informative and entertaining as always 😁
