Yeung lab/tenure track clock is a year old and what have I accomplished? Nothing! 8 LOI submitted 8 non select, no IBC, no IUCAC, no start up or seed money, no senior author papers, no mice or cell lines MTA initiated. Yes to 2 undergrads that is still going through onboarding. #NewPI #URM #Help!

E. coli-activated cellular circuit restrains intestinal inflammatory microbiota-specific T cells and protects against colitis
Kim et al. show that colonization with a single E. coli strain limits microbiota-directed T cell inflammation. Colonization promotes CX3CR1+ APC IL-10 production, restricting colitogenic Th1 cell resp...
