It’s #norovirus week in #ScienceTranslationalMedicine! Two papers show that we can vaccinate against norovirus in older adults and that vaccines have the potential to be broadly protective. Good news for anyone afraid of norovirus (me!).

We are thrilled to share our new manuscript @science.org , in which we uncovers a critical role for macrophage peroxisomes in lung repair after viral infection. Could targeting peroxisomes be the key to mitigating long COVID?! www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Macrophage peroxisomes guide alveolar regeneration and limit SARS-CoV-2 tissue sequelae
Peroxisomes are vital but often overlooked metabolic organelles. We found that excessive interferon signaling remodeled macrophage peroxisomes. This loss of peroxisomes impaired inflammation resolutio...

Always a tough call at @science.org what to name the Breakthrough of the Year. But as someone interested in infectious diseases and living with HIV, this is truly a remarkable breakthrough.
We now have yet another amazing tool to stop new HIV infections. We need to use them all!

One of the alluring and theoretical strategies for extending healthspan and longevity is to rejuvenate the thymus gland, promote an intact immune system. Now there's a way to do that in aged mice.
