A big thank you to @embo.org for supporting our lab, we’re equally honoured and thrilled to be part of the EMBO family! 🤩🤩🤩 The IG grant will allow us to continue building our research program on immuno-oncology and hopefully contribute to improving care for patients with brain cancer 🧫🔬
So happy to share that our review in #ImmunolRev is finally out! 😃 We discuss how the immune system builds specialized TLSs across organs and conditions. Huge thanks to @StephanGuillaume, @iannaconelab.bsky.social & @linterman.bsky.social for this collaboration!

A team led by Ludwig Lausanne’s @johannajoyce.bsky.social & former postdoc @alvarezprado.bsky.social reports a potential drug target whose loss in certain GBM cells triggers antiviral alarms to stall cell proliferation & makes GBM tumors in mice more amenable to anti-cancer immunity.

Legend David Baltimore died yesterday. He understood the way things should work: "the real contribution of MIT is that it doesn't take itself too seriously. It takes ideas seriously, but the people are relatively informal. They are not self-aggrandizing the way academics can be."

A new study published in Cell Reports shows that cancer cells activate CD13 to gain a foothold in the brain, long before tumors are established.
