The UniHealth study is up and running @UCC. This research project is trialling the use of multiplex antigen tests, which have great potential for widespread use in identifying and managing respiratory infections. @SEFSUCC @UCCResearch @UCCSU @scienceirel @johnmacsharry

Interesting study (in mice) diverse early microbes do not protect against allergy responses, hygiene hypothesis ….. science.org/doi/10.1126/scii…

Laboratory mice with a wild microbiota generate strong allergic immune responses

Allergen exposure in wildling mice induces robust de novo responses and activates an endogenous memory TH2 cell pool.
