Thrilled to share new work led by @jieyang437.bsky.social in the lab published today in @Nature. We find that Aspirin prevents metastasis by releasing T cells from immune suppression by platelet TXA2. @Cambridge_Uni @CRUKCamCentre rdcu.be/eci1U
We're hiring! We are looking for a Research Assistant with protein biochemistry skills to develop novel protein-based immunotherapeutics targeting Treg cells in cancer. You'll join

Interesting how companies and the financial world is racing to spend mindboggling amounts of money to build the infrastructure to train computers. But we are leaving the infrastructure to train and educate humans crumbling. The question is who will train who?

A more consistently warm home, no damp on the walls in winter and much cheaper heating
Love seeing people embrace greener heating. what’s been the biggest benefit for your home so far?

Wonderful to see the seminal discoveries of Shimon Sakaguchi, Mary E. Brunkow & Fred Ramsdell recognised with the Nobel Prize. From Sakaguchi’s discovery of Treg cells to the identification of Foxp3, their research opened a new chapter in immunology, viewed from the prism of dominant tolerance.

Now in #Science #Immunology: @griffithslab.bsky.social report that when #CD8 #TCells encounter their targets, #nucleus localizes to the #ImmuneSynapse (IS) & facilitates delivery of newly synthesized cytokines to the IS. They find nuclear polarization represents key step in #CTL -mediated killing!
Nuclear polarization to the immune synapse facilitates an early transcriptional burst
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte target recognition triggers rapid nuclear polarization to the immune synapse and an early transcriptional burst of cytokines.

Cool to see so many #heatpumps being installed this year. We’ve had our heatpump at home now for 3 years and it’s been saving us money while providing more comfortable heating and reducing our estimated CO2e by 75-80%.

Please sign this Parliamentary petition calling for comprehensive trade sanctions on Israel - the limited sanctions on specific members of the Israeli Government by the UK do not go far enough: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...
Petition: Review all trade ties with Israel, suspend 2030 roadmap & impose trade sanctions
We call on the Government to review existing trade ties with Israel, suspend the 2030 Roadmap for UK-Israel bilateral relations and impose trade sanctions upon Israel.
