Excited about bio research, but don't have 1-2+ years of research experience needed for many top PhD programs? @UCSF_PROPEL, we think everyone with the drive to pursue science should have an opportunity for paid research. Info session 11/22, app due 12/4: justice.ucsf.edu

Proud to have been a small part of this fundamental immunology project! 🥳🧑‍🔬 Huge implications for immunotherapy! Big props to my supervisor @IanParish_AU for crafting and leading this curiosity-driven research to success. 🫡 Check out our paper (and Ian's explainer) below! 👇

We’ve known about tolerant CD8+ T cells for >25 yrs – but what are these cells?! Prematurely exhausted, stalled effectors, or something else? Our latest @ImmunityCP paper takes a deep dive into this question with some unexpected results, including a link to cancer… (1/)

How similar is the🐠 fish brain to the🐁 mammalian brain? Are there any conserved cell-types or brain regions🧠? Our new article, explores these questions through detailed analysis of gene expression in the fish brain and other vertebrates. rdcu.be/dIA51 @CommsBio
