Delighted to share our latest work, out in @NatImmunol, tackling the seemingly inordinate complexity of #cDC2s. @ReiseSousaLab @TheCrick, we found that distinct ontogenetic lineages dictate cDC2 heterogeneity, rather than cell states imposed by the tissue microenvironment 🧵(1/x)

⁦@bart_lambrecht⁩ on Alveolar Macrophages, showing brand new mouse tools called the Clodronator 😎 #emds2023. Finally AM-specific tools! Studying the alveolar macrophage niche with these brand new tools will be superb! Superb work from ⁦@StijnVerwaerde⁩ 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I spent the last 3 days at the #CrickDataChallenge @Crick_DC ! I had the chance to try new things with team @elias_copin and meet cool people The atmosphere as well was so friendly and made everyone feel at home (we need more teamwork in science!)

“To train or not to train, this is the question”. Interesting discussion @NatImmunol between Wack’s & Yao’s groups on the contribution of newly recruited or trained alveolar macrophages during influenza virus #IAV infections! 👇 doi.org/10.1038/10.1038/s415… & doi.org/10.1038/s41590-023-0… – at Milan, Lombardy

I am delighted to announce our manuscript on aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) ligand sensing by gut endothelial cells is now out in @Nature! This has been a lot of collective hard work over the last 3 years, and I am proud to see this work across the line! nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
