Very excited to say our paper exploring CD56neg NK cells has been published! Through a combination of meta-analysis, and both CyTOF and scRNAseq datasets, we investigate this unique population of NK cells linked to HIV-1 and other chronic virus infections frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

Here’s our new paper — On genetic diversity in the human immune system — five years of research, led by postdoc @pippa_kennedy, and many collaborators. In @scisignal stke.sciencemag.org/content/12/612…

Natural Killer cell research in @scisignal ? Well isn’t that just a perfect Xmas present!

The new issue of Science Signaling is out now! Research explores how a cancer drug attenuates lung fibrosis in mice, how a common chemotherapy can promote cancer cell migration, and genetic diversity in natural killer cell receptors. fcld.ly/xmb5hdo

Report from the Eleventh Killer Immunoglobulin-like Receptor (KIR) Workshop: novel insights on KIR polymorphism, ligand recognition, expression and f... - PubMed - NCBI Hoping to attend the next one in 2020, hosted by ⁦@PN0rmskincbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3117763…


Our new perspective on the exciting research from @mjwsim and others, an encouraging step for identifying orphan KIR ligands and a role for NK cells in defense against bacterial infection.

1/x. NK cell education is tightly linked to remodelling of the lysosomal compartment. Educated NK cells carry a greater cytotoxic payload in large dense-core secretory lysosomes (See T shirt). rdcu.be/bjoz0 @jodegoodridge @CIM_Sweden @UiO_LifeSci @NatureComms

Thanks to Christina Tato @chanzuck biohub for very nice highlight of my 2013 CyTOF study with @ParhamLab and Catherine Blish published @NatRevImmunol. 1st report of human NK cells by CyTOF. nature.com/articles/s4157…

Wow! So nice to see that the complex genetics of NK cell education revealed by @AmirHorowitz has a role in AML and Immunotherapy. Makes perfect sense!

Read our latest paper on how the HLA-B -21 dimorphism impacts on NK cell function in AML! ⁦@thoren_lab⁩ ⁦@Hallner90⁩ ⁦@hussein_brwa#NKcell bloodjournal.org/content/early/…
