Exclusive: Weeks after President Donald Trump’s administration ordered NIH to pull $250 million in biomedical research grants to Columbia University, the agency is freezing all remaining grant money owed to the university until further notice. scim.ag/4if5Rg1

The myth that the childhood vaccine against measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) causes autism is based on a discredited study falsely linking the vaccine to autism. Find out more: ow.ly/EqeC50VlKva.

We strongly oppose the recent decision by NIH, under Acting Director Dr. Matthew Memoli, to reduce the reimbursement rate for "indirect costs" to 15% for all research institutions. Read our statement in full: ow.ly/JQig50UY71T

Maintenance and functional regulation of immune memory to COVID-19 vaccines in tissues
While vaccine-induced immunity circulates through blood, Davis-Porada et al. reveal that T and B cell memory generated by COVID-19 mRNA vaccines is stably maintained across lymphoid and mucosal tissues. Functionally, spike-reactive T cells exhibit heterogeneous effector and regulatory profiles compartmentalized in blood and tissues, respectively, for protection and tissue homeostasis.

Scientists, academics, researchers: We’re excited to share that @altmetric.com is now tracking mentions of your research on Bluesky! 🧪
There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.

A Place of Joy.

ICYMI: earlier this year in #Science #Immunology, Josh Gray, Donna Farber & al. analyzed the phenotype, transcriptome, function, & repertoire of #gdTcells in mucosal & lymphoid tissues & blood from 176 #human donors across the life span! Subjects ranged in age from just a few days to over 80 years!
Human γδ T cells in diverse tissues exhibit site-specific maturation dynamics across the life span
Human tissue γδ T cells are diverse and functionally heterogeneous in early life and differentiate into disseminated effectors in adults.
