I’m delighted to share my postdoc work is now out in @SciImmunology! We investigated the role of liver-resident macrophages, #Kupffercell, in newborn bacterial infections and their link to #sepsis and #meningitis, unveiling a surprising phenomenon. science.org/doi/epdf/10.1126…

Publications from @CJStewart7 with important conclusions. Bacterial communities in breast milk are “skin commensal/pathobionts like Staphylococcus” that "do not colonise the infant gut". This suggests they are skin contaminants and should not be considered a 'milk microbiome'!
A couple new papers from the group, largely showing so-called "negative results", but with important connotations for the care of preterm infants. Both papers are open-access so I will provide only key bits here. A small thread 🧵:

🚀 Very excited to start this new chapter in my career and to join the amazing team at HZI! Looking forward to continuing my research on neonatal mucosal immune development and enhanced oral vaccine design for children. Let’s make a difference! #VaccineDevelopment #newPI

Das @BMBF_Bund schreibt, dass die Bundesregierung die Reform des #WissZeitVG beschlossen hat. Die Reaktionen darauf sind, wenig überraschend, sehr kritisch. War es das jetzt mit den Anstrengungen von #IchBinHanna & #IchBinReyhan? Kurze Antwort: Nein! Lange Antwort: 🧵
Das Bundeskabinett hat heute die Reform des #WissZeitVG beschlossen. Damit verbessern wir die Arbeitsbedingungen für #Wissenschaftlerinnen und #Wissenschaftler. 🎓 Alle Details sind hier nachzulesen: bmbf.de/wisszeitvg
