New work involving patient samples suggests that T cells, not natural killer cells, express the molecule called KIR3DL3. @CUAnschutz @PN0rmski

Did you know there is NIH funding for available to support a student transitioning from a toxic or unsafe lab space to a new lab? Faculty can apply for “Re-entry and Re-Integration Supplements”. I had no idea this resource existed! #AcademicTwitter #phdchat

Just want to take a moment to bow down to @VikiLovesFACS and the tireless work she does countering disinformation around covid vaccination in pregnancy. With grace, and patience, over and over again, almost every time I open Twitter. Above and beyond 👏👏🙌🙌 #standingovation

Had such a lovely time at @SNI_NKMeeting #NK2022 ! As a young trainee, I particularly appreciate the accessibility and humility of leaders in the field and their group members at this meeting. So many thoughtful discussions and inspiring work shared. Future looking bright!

New from me: On the day Elon Musk announced his Twitter takeover, 200,000 Katy Perry followers deactivated. Marjorie Taylor Greene gained 90,000 followers. Twitter confirmed to @NBCNews: It wasn’t bots. Apolitical users fled. Right-wing users joined. https://t.co/gxBWpxq1uG

Twitter, which did not provide an exact number of accounts that were shuttered or activated in the hours after the announcement, said it was looking into “recent fluctuations."

Excited to share this work at @ConferenceEfi
Congrats to our second year @laleaton who was selected to give an oral presentation at the EFI conference in Amsterdam! Laura Ann is mentored by Paul Norman and the title of her talk is KIR3DL1/S1 alleles impact infection, autoimmune disease, transplantation, and immunotherapy.

thank you PLOS Comp Bio!
KIR3DL1/S1 alleles impact infection, autoimmune disease, transplantation & immunotherapy. These researchers created an open source program (PONG) to impute KIR3DL1/S1 alleles accurately from WG-SNP data in cohorts encompassing human diversity. @laleaton
