The Ewald Lab studies chronic inflammation & innate immunity with the parasite Toxoplasma
UVa Charlottesville, VA
Joined May 2017
Excited to share our new story explaining how macrophages use nitric oxide derivatives to shut down Toxoplasma evasion of cell-autonomous immunity. Congrats to @zhaoxyu6 and the team!

Excited to share our new review discussing how host-pathogen interactions can be explored with spatial proteomics and transcriptomic tools. There should be something for virologists, bacteriologists & parasitologists in here! @samy_lempke

The biology of a cell, whether it is a unicellular organism or part of a multicellular network, is influenced by cell type, temporal changes in cell state, and the cell’s environment. Spatial cues...

1. We @ImmunologyTang @ShanLuLiu1 are very happy to see our work finally published. We found that current mRNA vaccines induced relatively suboptimal respiratory mucosal immunity despite strong circulating humoral and cellular immunity being induced.
A study finds a lack of neutralizing antibodies, #Bcells, and #Tcells against #SARSCoV2 variants of concern, such as BA1.1, in vaccinated people’s lungs, showing intranasal boosters in mice induce lung immunity. @Jie_Immunology @ImmunologyTang @ShanLuLiu1

🔥🔥New preprint from our lab.🔥🔥 We designed a new in vitro model to study spontaneous differentiation of Toxoplasma gondii in primary brain cells. A great collaboration with @jcl_lambert that was funded by a grant from @PasteurLille (CPER CRTL). 1/4

A heartbreaking loss. I was so fortunate to have benefited Nilabh’s thoughtful scientific advice and generous support at each stage of my career- as grad student down the hall and as a Toxo immunologist starting a lab- he is missed.
So sad we have lost legendary immunologist Nilabh Shastri. He was my next door neighbor and mentor. Can’t think of a more brilliant, kind, generous human being. It was such a privilege to be his friend and colleague at Hopkins for the much too short amount of time he was here.
