I am excited that our paper demonstrating that genetics and environment interact to determine an individual’s immune phenotype is out today in @NatImmunol. @LokePng, @Grahammunology, @ae_downie. A thread🧵
Loke and colleagues quantify the relative and interactive contributions of genetic and environmental influences on heterogeneity in immune profiles and helminth susceptibility. Read it here: https://t.co/RzHqXSoylt
