Inflammation & Infection 🧫 🧬🔬
MIMOL Uni Genève. Mom of 3 building a meaningful scientific future after losing 2 children in 2022 and 2023.
Check out this new paper by @avishenoy.bsky.social lab - GBP1 can detect extracellular bacteria from the inside of cells! 😎 LPS solubilisation, Toxoplasma vacuole disruption and now immunity through actin binding - what a superpower protein! 😬 Happy to have supported this project!
📢A new effector-triggered immunity role for GBP1! No place for pathogens to hide now that GBP1 can detect extracellular pathogens that hijack the actin cytoskeleton. Surprise*suprise* GBP1 does this independently of LPS! 🧵

Read this important piece about child loss due to under researched genetic mutations that stole @criminographer.bsky.social Alexander and Isabelle. www.thetimes.com/uk/healthcar...
Two years after our toddler’s sudden death, our world collapsed again
When Emily Cooper’s son died aged three, tests showed she and her husband had a genetic mutation endangering their other children

I’m liking the new energy on this platform. I’ve sat on the scientific sidelines for some of this year, while we as a family are re-grouping after losing Leo aged 4 in ‘22 and Alby aged 1 month in ‘23. I’m grateful for so many supportive colleagues out there. Science is a wonderful place.
