The saga of Il-24 in Th17 continues! Important next step in mechanistic understanding after our recent Immunity paper (PMID 32673565).
Sie, Kant, et al. show that Th17 cells restrain their own pathogenicity by producing IL-24, which induces IL-10 in a cell-intrinsic manner. bit.ly/3AJni6u

Excited to share our review on Mucosal Immunology of the Ocular Surface! Just published in Mucosal Immunology @MucosalImmunol with Cintia de Paiva @de_Paiva_Lab and Anthony St Leger @ASL5638000. doi.org/10.1038/s41385-022-0….

Worth a second look! (pun intended). Congratulations for a really cool study, @OlegButovsky!
For all doubters: a testament to the effectiveness of vaccination.

Seriously… is anybody surprised?

HUGE NEWS!! I am SO ecstatic to be able to finally announce: our satellite proposal was selected by NASA!! Many of us have been working on this mission concept for nearly a decade now, and it is so very exciting and rewarding to finally see it be able to become reality. 1/3

This paper by @dbseaton (with a little help from me) breaks major new ground in exploring the Sun's corona, its outermost atmosphere, in a region where there are very few observations. We're planning new missions to discover the intricate interconnections in this dynamic region!
A long-duration campaign to image the Sun’s middle corona — a region about 1.5-3 solar radii from the centre — reveals dynamical processes that can influence the global coronal structure and beyond. @dbseaston et al.: nature.com/articles/s41550-0…

Really interesting paper from Kenya Honda's lab submitted to Nature Research! (A preprint still, so wishing the group to have it accepted before they become centenarians!😛)

Would be overjoyed to see Professor Akiko Iwasaki (@VirusesImmunity) named to the Biden #COVID19 task-force. Nobody more worthy, capable, or deserving.
Nobody.

I hope @JoeBiden assembles a strong task-force of scientists to help him deal with the pandemic. He needs a consortium of experts! @EricTopol @florian_krammer @VirusesImmunity @vsv512 just to name a few! nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
