Brand New #FITdb (fitdb.lji.org) tool now LIVE! Do you have a list of genes? You can use "Compare My Geneset" to test if these are overly-represented among functional regulators of T cells across more than 60 conditions! @lji.org supported and developed by Kevin Kim, Xinjian Cen and Harrison Ma.

The Dartmouth Cancer Center is recruiting a Scientific Director for our Immune Cellular Therapy Program. It is amazing opportunity for an MD/OD to work in a beautiful part of the country at the only NCI-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in northern New England. Info on applying here:

Make sure you, your trainees, and anyone else who might listen to you understands what "indirects" actually are, how they are established, and what Universities contribute. H/T @rodallab.bsky.social

Excited to share our single-cell study on aging mouse brain! We found 2,449 cell-type specific age-DE genes, and an aging hotspot in specific hypothalamic cell types involved in energy homeostasis, which show both decreased neuronal function and increased immune response. doi.org/10.1038/s415...

I’m always looking for things that explain a lot but that people have a hard time remembering.

Examples: Air is stuff. Pee comes from blood. All land vertebrates have a single common ancestor. Venus is bright enough to cast visible shadows. Clouds are heavy. Bones are alive.

Any others you know?

39 rotations around the sun! And what a year it's been. The lab has doubled in size. We had our first (3!!!) graduate students and post docs join the lab. We had both our first and second lab papers EVER accepted - the first is out in print... so check it out -(journals.aai.org/jimmunol/art...).

I created a simple flow chart to help my lab trainees choose the most appropriate stats test in Prism (*for single-factor comparisons only). Feel free to share with your group if you think it could be helpful first start.
