Hello everyone! I am a postdoc in mucosal immunology and I am looking for new postdoc position in Europe! I know a lot about gut mast cells, but also CD4 T cells and type 2/3 immunity in general. I've worked with single cell sequencing and neuroimmune interactions. Feel free to share! Thank you! ♥️🥼👩🔬

That's a wrap on #yBIS2025! Over 200 young immunologists came together for a day of science, networking—and yes, an unexpected fire alarm 🚨
Huge thanks to @kuleuvenuniversity.bsky.social, the Flemish Government & our 8 sponsors for making it possible 🙌

The do’s and don’ts of scientific image editing
Acceptable image-editing practices are partly a matter of common sense. But researchers say journals and funders could help scientists by standardizing policies.
