Delighted to share my PhD work on CD4 T cell differentiation and naïve CD4 T cell heterogeneity out in @JExpMed. Immense gratitude to Sasha and @dana_peer for their guidance and dedication. Special thanks to Herman and @themis_brown for being the greatest co-authors!
.@deeksha_deep, Gudjonson, Rudensky et al. @MSKCancerCenter identified two distinct differentiation paths for effector and precursor central memory T cells arising from heterogeneous naïve CD4 T cells. hubs.la/Q02R75w70 #LymphocyteBiology #Autoimmunity

Very happy to share our study describing a new lineage of RORgt antigen presenting cells – Thetis cells – that instruct Treg differentiation and tolerance to gut microbes during early life! nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Brilliant teamwork led by @BlossomAkagbosu and @ZTayyebi 🧵 1/

Congratulations! Check out @HarikeshWong ‘s new lab at @MITBiology next year if you like microscopy and/or immunology
Excited to share a major component of my post-doctoral work finally out today in @CellCellPress sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Check out this new paper from the Rudensky lab looking at epigenetic regulation of Foxp3 expression during thymic Treg cell differentiation. First authored by a fantastic colleague and mentor @dinkystas congratulations!
This is a thing that exists in the world now: cell.com/immunity/fulltext/S…

Congratulations @Treg_inaBP well deserved!
RT and join us as we congratulate Sloan Kettering Institute researchers @Treg_inaBP and Mijin Kim, PhD, this year's Marie-Josée Kravis Women in Science Endeavor (Kravis WiSE) fellowship grant recipients! (1/2) bit.ly/3bD6D7H

Getting my exercise in with @jlrosenfeld @StefanTorborg and others when real MLB announcer @BoogSciambi caught a couple of great hits! (Sound on)
Walking in Central Park, getting warmed up for @Cubs season on @WatchMarquee

Fleetwood Macrophage 😂 this is gold
We asked students to come up with an immunology-themed band name for a bonus point on their final exam. The results were consistently fantastic, but this goes above and beyond.

Would definitely go
Thank you! @NIAIDFunding

Excellent thread to explain a misleading headline.
Here is a thread to explain the findings of this study, that used computational tools to predict T cell reactive sequences in #SARSCOV2 subunit vaccines. The bottom line: there is no cause for alarm. Here is why (1/n)

Science is something working the first 99 times and then deciding not to work on the 100th

Saskia Hemmers, Michail Schizas & Alexadnder Rudensky @sloan_kettering uncover a novel ST2-dependent role for T reg cells in limiting the size of IL-17A–producing γδT cells in the CNS in a mouse model of #neuroinflammation bit.ly/3dPk3wJ #Autoimmunity

Agreed. It’s honestly so scary that my mom is teaching in an old university building with poor ventilation often without windows in each classroom 😬 To top it off, she routinely teaches her in-person classes in an online format as well, so the content is all ready ...

Women account for < than a 1/3 (29%) of senior roles globally. In science this number is probably less. Let's change that! Apply for the 2021 @92YWomeninPower fellowship 🙋🏻‍♀️ fellow this year, and I’m lucky to be part of amazing network of trailblazers. womeninpower.org/apply

Interesting thread on varied and international approaches to science! I’m sure approaches to (biological) research vary based on funding opportunities and also by institution in the U.S. I wonder if approaches differ in the same way in other disciplines of science
1. I trained in North America & the UK & was very fortunate to experience 2 completely different styles of doing science. I wanted to discuss briefly why, as a scientist, it's useful, though challenging, to experience ways of doing science that are very different from each other
