1/ Increasing vaccine protection against #COVID. A/Prof @SAlonsoGroup @NUSingapore & A/Prof @LahoudMirei @MonashBDI have discovered a technique for prolonging immune response to #SARSCoV2 virus in pre-clinical models using an antibody construct. More: bit.ly/3yKN3Ek
ALT L-R: Associate Professors Sylvia Alonso (NUS) and Mireille Lahoud (Monash BDI), senior authors on the Molecular Therapy paper, Single-shot dendritic cell targeting SARS-CoV-2 vaccine candidate induces broad, durable and protective systemic and mucosal immunity in mice.
Delighted to celebrate our latest publication with A/Prof Sylvie Alonso @SAlonsoGroup on dendritic cell-targeting of SARS-CoV-2 antigens for durable and protective immunity.
A fantastic collaboration between @MonashBDI and @NUSingapore.

A/Prof Daniel Gough, Dr Daniel Garama & the team have now identified the processes that #Cancer cells use to create the energy they need to grow.
Read their latest research, on a particular protein called #STAT3, in the journal Cell Reports, or 👉🏾bit.ly/3GbNIPH
