🚨 New Paper in European Journal of Immunology!
We show that NKG7 is a robust marker of cytotoxicity, outperforming GZMB and PRF1 across immune cell types and tissues!
Thanks to all co-authors, @nsssusanna.bsky.social, @M.Hoelzel & @eomesodermin.bsky.social

Our 3D study of the tumor microenvironment is finally out!

Play around with the data yourself at lung-3d-browser.mdc-berlin.de (Kudos to @danilexn.bsky.social👏 )

Many thanks to Nikolaus Rajewsky lab at @mdc-bimsb.bsky.social and everyone involved, it takes a village to raise a multimodal paper!

“Lab Girl” being censored is baffling. I’ve read this wonderful work; nothing offensive in it whatsoever — unless showing that women can be scientists is no longer “appropriate content” for children?? Everyone go buy a copy in protest. My 2016 review in Nature👇 www.nature.com/articles/532...

NKG7 is a stable marker of cytotoxicity across immune contexts and within the tumor microenvironment

What a great year for our group! Thanks guys for your constant support, the passion and the hard work you put to bring forward our ideas and projects, and also …. for being amazing Artists&chef pâtissier!

With a photo of the latest ArtAttack, we wish everybody merry Christmas and happy new year!

Delighted to share our paper on adipose gd T cells making IL-17 every night for homeostasis, coordinating lipid metabolism after eating @natureportfolio.bsky.social Huge effort by whole team and collaborators to work this out. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New review article written by Cristhiane Favero de Aguiar and Carrie Corkish from my lab. They did a great job.

I love this article about scientific creativity! The cartoons are brilliant

Which one are you?
Among scientists are collectors, classifiers, and compulsive tidiers-up; many are detectives by temperament and many are explorers; some are artists and others artisans. There are poet-scientists and philosopher-scientists and even a few mystics.

Would you prefer to lead a lab alone or together with a science buddy? How interesting would be a research institute where joint labs are the standard?!

First post on Bluesky, let’s share some websites offering many free illustrations for scientific figures 🖼️ 🧪 🌍 :

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.

Made a starter pack for those interested in Innate Lymphoid Cells (#ILC). Please drop me a line when you like to be added! go.bsky.app/BNuUVCx

The 1st rule of day science is to ask for each result, what is the negative control and what is the positive control, because we forget how easy it is to fool ourselves.

I am excited to share our latest paper. We profiled CD8+ TILs from HPV- HNSCC patients using scRNA/TCRseq. In addition, we performed an ex vivo stimulation of cells to capture their transcriptional response. 1/n
